I know, which kinda makes a mockery of the whole ''what did I do?!'' schtick*...



*This weeks new word. Next week - pontification...slight pause after pon for added effect

Earlier I was going to say that I thought foxy was a good egg, but could be painfully negative.


Then I read

I actually agree with foxy 100% on the above.


And this is why at times O think Louisa can't help herself, because with some posters there is a certain level of smugness. I also find it personally insulting when people suggest that before the year 2000 when it was miraculously saved, ED was a total dump. It bloody well wasn't!

This sums it up perfectly for me. Well done Otta.


That smug attitude you refer to, mostly from a group of people in the main section, needs to be put in its place freon time to time. The people who hunted me down and requested my removal from the forum are those very people.


I have my memories of this place, and it wasn't a dump before you lot arrived, I grew up here and lived and loved here. I don't need to be patronised by a few people about what I can and can't say about East Dulwich. The area wasn't saved when you moved here, it had a thriving community even if the high street wasn't to your liking.

    • Chiming in to recommend the Canacabins team, who did a beautiful job completely rebuilding a well-loved (but falling down) shed into a new garden office. While they were at it, they also constructed a new pond surround, deck, railing, and patched up our decrepit fence, all to a high standard. A friendly team and very happy with the end result!
    • There isn’t a map for the Go Jauntly walk - I added that.  I plan to update it now the weather is getting warmer but haven’t yet. Part of the reason for adding it was that I couldn’t find a map.    Not going to help but Dulwich Festival will be doing a walk so might be worth asking them.   
    • An idea if you are looking for something to do. I’ve visited and have just come across this again.    Vauxhall City Farm is a farm in London where we can see the animals the packaged meat in the supermarket comes from. Entrance is free, a donation of £4 is requested   Looking for a present you can adopt an animal - support the farm and the person you gift it to will get 3 lots of food to feed on visits.    The 50th Anniversary Appeal is currently running so they can do the farm up and hopefully give the animals a home and people the chance to see them for another 50 years. If you want to donate here’s the link    https://www.justgiving.com/campaign/growthenext50years
    • Let's wait and see how many affordable family homes and social housing actually get built.
