I have friends coming down from Highgate with their four kids this Saturday to check out Dulwich Village. They are looking to potentially buy in the area. I was going to take them on a little walking tour and spend some time in the park, but now it looks like it's going to be raining! Does anyone have an idea of what to do with four adults and six kids (combined with mine) ranging from eight months to nine years in age? Our flat is too small to host. Something that would ideally give them an idea of how charming the area is? I really want them to move here! Thanks! x

A second vote for the Horniman and then lunch at Rocca. Otherwise the picture gallery (if that's feasible for the kids) and lunch at Rocca. Basically make sure you take them to Rocca as they are so family friendly and the fun is great. Just a shame the Dog is shut (? if it is) for its refurb.

It's only a dozen or so stalls so not a major destination but good for a 10-15 minute stroll. Stall holders set up about 9.00am to 10.00am and, depending on the weather/time of year/amount of trade, are usually pretty much packed up by 5pm. It's a must for fudge, fresh popcorn, coffee, fancy hotdogs and pies plus a lot more. Must also plug Lisa E Moss jewelry stall. She's an amazing designer and has lots of high profile clients.

Really hope the weather is more like today - the autumn colours are so pretty! Def go for a proper village walk along the shops and into the Park or down to belair and Dulwich college. If it does rain, I reckon the horniman (with market!) then picture gallery would be fab x

    • That's a disgusting slur against an innocent driver who was probably just on their way to drop off freshly-baked muffins at an orphanage when they had to swerve out of the way of a so-called "cyclist", and anyway traffic lights are just a Marxist conspiracy by Southwark Council to slow traffic down and force people out of cars, so we're all better off without it.
    • Frothy coffee? Not really my bag. A double espresso and a Marlboro Red? It's the breakfast of champions. The only dark drink with a creamy head which should ever be drunk by a man of my age is Guinness. I've also become lactose intolerant recently, meaning I get very impatient around milk. You make a fair point, but those legal channels are available for them to recover their repair, and legal, costs and, as I said: "It's up to them if they [Southwark] want to do that, of course." There's three or four grands worth of Cat N write-off, wrapped round a post there (more, if it's broken down for parts) causing problems. If they can't be arsed sorting that, I'm not holding my breath. Even Southwark couldn't screw their numbers up enough to make shifting the post back through circa 15 degrees more than a couple of grand, so there's a drink in it for everyone. It's a bit 'leany' just now, yeah, but I haven't noticed anyone having to limbo under it to get to Superdrugs. Or, they could make a feature of it. Pisa has made a fortune out of not sorting the underpinnings of their tower. Let's say it's an installation by someone called, I don't know, Bangsy, and it's a physical reminder that SE22 cannot deny its proximity to Peckham, Camberwell & Brixton. It's about the only thing that would get me back into The Bishop since the many dark afternoons of the soul I spent with Clarence*, the world's most depressed Weimaraner. *RIP big fella. You were always a great listener.   Come on Spartacus, don't be shy. You know exactly where the Green Cross Code Man was in 1973: less than a hundred yards away, on North Cross Road. https://youtu.be/C-XwVVMiCO4?si=rt8kQllev0t1Lgdi For some years, I found it quite difficult to go into The Forrester's after many long afternoons of the soul with Dave Prowse* (The Green Cross Code Man). *RIP big fella. You were always a great listener.  
    • Loving the arm chair speculation on here  Blimey how long before this gets spun out to be a drug dealer welding a sawn off whilst driving away from a smash and grab at the coop cash machine flipped his car and landed on a bollard type post  Where's the green cross code man when you need him ?
