There was a lovely stall at the fair yesterday selling ED cloth bags,then i started chatting to a resident who told me that dulwich not ED and nunhead already have cloth bags,with dulwich and nunhead logos that were distribuited by their local community using southwark money.I spoke to and emailed the council today about ED cloth bags and they said they would let me know,if any of you guys have time can you email southwark through their website,recycling page and ask about ED bags and to go about getting them.Im thinking about petitioning our local community council at their next meeting,anyone want to help,let me and il give you the details,two lovely ladies who baked for the WI on sunday expressed interest,so if you want to help get this up,let me know here.

Did anyone else see the 'Loser' magazine flyer posted on the front of the 'I (heart) SE22' bags stall, and indeed flyered all the way up LL? I thought it was having a pop at the 'I'm not a plastic bag' fiasco of late. I saw one woman in SMB's with an I'm not a plastic bag' thing, and she looked bemused as to why people were laughing at her. Fashion gone mad?

There's a post about the bags HERE and asked people to come along and help make the place greener...


I take my hat off to you for the thought, but again, it seems like anyone trying to take responsibility for the environment, and doing their bit, is just ripped off for their trouble!


God, since being with Mrs Keef I'm very surprised at the things I'm becoming passionate about..... That could actually sound very wrong! :-S

Oh dear it seems like I am the only one to mention or at least acknowledge these 'Loser' flyers?.....I have no idea who put them up. I thought it a little odd is all. Oh well. Curious situations often never get explained. Mr Madworld 74 came over to me at the festival to inform me of how much they were on sale for. Just as well the loud music from the band drowned his 'dismay'...is all I can say.

I think this is a very good idea. I keep reading about that small town that has gone plastic bag free. I can see no reason why lordship lane could not do the same thing and I suspect it could be funded from the community council's cleaner greener safer fund. An application form can be found here:

No and they're not cloth. They're made out of harder stuff, sorry I don't know what it's called - like a cross between sea grass or raffia. Nor can I remember exactly what it says but it's got a pic of a green tree and the word Dulwich is in it but not I 'heart' SE22. Must be one of the bags Monica talked about in the first post.


Sorry for rubbish info, I'm too hungry to think.


Anyway pop along to RW and see for yourselves.

Thanks councillor i will do that and hopefully things may roll.The whole idea about Ed cloth bags came from here.The postcards are proving to be very popular i

see.Lots of people walking around with them On LL.I heard a couple of ladies say they were going to post them to the states.Nice 1

    • I know nothing about farming so can't really comment but when I read things like this interesting thread from Guy Shrubsole I am increasingly cynical about those making the loudest noise.  And yes it is a genuine link.    
    • The top front tooth has popped out.  Attempted to fix myself with repair kit bought from Boots, unfortunately it didn’t last long.  Tooth has popped out again.  Unable to get to dentist as housebound but family member can drop off.  I tried dental practice I found online, which is near Goose Green, but the number is disconnected.   The new dental practice in FH (where Barclays used to be) said it’s not something they do.  Seen a mobile dental practice where a technician comes to your home and does the repair but I’m worried about the cost. Any suggestions please? Thank you 
    • So its OK for Starmer to earn £74K/annum by renting out a property, cat calling the kettle black....... Their gravy train trundles on. When the Southport story that involves Starmer finally comes out, he's going to be gone, plus that and the local elections in May 2025 when Liebour will get a drumming. Even his own MP's have had enough of the mess they've made of things in the first three months of being in power. They had fourteen years to plan for this, what a mess they've created so quickly, couldn't plan there way out of a paper bag.   Suggest you do the sums, the minimum wage won't  be so minimum when it is introduced, that and the increase in employers national insurance contributions is why so many employers are talking about reducing their cohort of employees and closing shops and businesses.  Businesses don't run at a loss and when they do they close, its the only option for them, you can only absorb a loss for so long before brining the shutters down and closing the doors. Some people are so blinkered they think the sun shines out of the three stooges, you need to wake up soon. Because wait till there are food shortages, no bread or fresh vegetables, nor meat in the shops, bare shelves in the supermarkets because the farmers will make it happen, plus prices spiralling out of control as a result of a supply and demand market. Every ones going to get on the gravy train and put their prices up, It happened before during lockdown, nothing to stop it happening again. You don't shoot the hand that feeds you. Then you'll see people getting angry and an uprising start to happen.  Hungry people become angry people very quickly. 
    • Eh? Straight ahead of what?  If you turn left at Goose Green, as you also posted above, you end up at the library. Then the Grove. Then, unless you turn right at the South Circular, you end up at Forest Hill!
