I went 11 miles from Sutton to East Dulwich and it took two and a half hours. Train from Sutton to Clapham Junction (20 mins). Crossed platform and waited ten mins for train from CJ to Battersea Park. Got there and waited 45 mins for "delayed" trains before mounting the train that went to Crystal Palace. Arrived there and skidded up hill to bus station and catching a 363 (bless that marvellous bus) to Forest Hill Road. All in all I spent well over two and a half hours getting home. Sigh. I just can't drive on the ice at 7am up Sydenham Hill. Too scary.

    • It’s been closed for several months, I think.
    • I've not posted any restaurant reviews here for a while, but with the long Easter weekend approaching I thought I'd serve an update. I recently reviewed The Palmerston and elsewhere became involved in a debate about the best pub lunch in SE22. So which ones do people here currently rate?  Yes I know people can just do a search for "Best pub lunch" but as well as new eateries popping up all the time two of the places I've reviewed – EDT and Bishop – have had a reboot since I reviewed them so I'm interested in hearing how they are doing now. FYI I'm still not charging people to read my reviews or subscribe (though they can pay if they are inclined) and I still haven't had any cease and desist letters from other food people who have used the word "Eats" in their name. And I put a lot of work into these reviews. They aren't just a couple of dashed off sentences saying what is good/bad. When not doing this for fun I'm a professional journalist. If people want to nitpick and be pedantic I'll just have to learn to live with it. https://eatsdulwich.substack.com/ 
    • Have there been any happy outcomes yet?  I was reminded of this thread by Kate Bradbury's two minute Tweet of the Day spot, on swifts and swift boxes, on Radio 4 recently.  She even plays their calls out of her window in the hope of attracting them.  https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0029yp8 Coincidentally, last week I came across a planning condition attached to the permission (24/AP/3592) granted to the old Melbourne Grove GP premises, that they install "no less than four bee bricks."  They're specifically for so-called solitary bees, who seem to be regarded as equally busy and deserving.  Kate B. mentioned that Brighton now attaches a similar condition, requiring swift boxes in all new-builds.  Might Southwark be doing so too?
