Following on from small St Christophers shop, i think the pricepoint at the big St Christophers is too high now. Visited this week but sadly left with nothing, I usually leave with some little thing or other. Small glass dish - I thought should be ?1 pound for a tea light was ?3.50!

I agree their prices have rocketed, but to be fair so I believe has their rent.


I may be wrong.

Seemed to be doing a lot of work still on interior - when is it expected to open do you know?. Thought I saw one of the employees from one of the other barbers on the lane working there. A lot of competition around!

Oh NOOOOOO! Really?

It always seems busy so I'm surprised.

I hope Mel is okay. Just a short time ago (half term) he was preparing the back garden part for winter by putting some kind of roof over it.


So this closure seems very sudden 😭

Yes that sounds about right.


It sold chocolate coated coffee beans from s big glass jar on a shelf behind the counter, and had lovely cosy quirky little rooms.


It was never quite the same when they knocked it all through, though I understand why they did it.

I think, for me, that moment will come when Khan?s closes and there?s no more mutton/goat available on that lane !

    • That's really awful. There must be someone further up the management chain who could be made aware of this? 
    • I'm assuming that anybody who has a cat can afford  its food, litter, vets' fees etc. Nobody was saying that two quid is "nothing", but it's cheaper than some brands of cat litter, so was hopefully useful to the OP. Still, hopefully your post made you feel better 👍 🤣 We still don't know why there was a bag of cat litter at the bus stop! Surely it would be rather difficult to take it away unnoticed if the owner of the cat litter was  also at the bus stop? It's not like someone distracted your attention and picked your pocket and you didn't notice till some time later! But what is also confusing me is, if the OP knows where the thief lives, why don't they go and ask for their cat litter back?
    • The market is only there for a few hours on Saturdays! Surely all street markets are "a bit tatty"! That seems a strange reason to close a road permanently to traffic!  There is already at least one seat  in North Cross Road (which seems to be quite well used),  apart from those for customers of The Palmerston,  and several of the shops in the road have greenery outside 
    • Couple of potential ideas, anywhere in the East Dulwich areas or say close to the station?
