OK, someone somewhere must have some advance news on what is likely to happen to some/all of the shops on Lordship Lane that are currently standing empty. Not including the refurbs (eg Caravan, the Chandaler shop/tea room) and the new shops we already know about (White Stuff, the posh gymn) there seem to be a fair few empty premises at the moment. What does the next phase of ED look like?!

nah, they're still going for it. There was a delay for some reason which meant the White Stuff shop fitters missed their slot to work on it so had to go off to another job. Back in August I think. Hopefully the Estate agent who is in charge of the property will get it tidied up in the meantime, I've written to them twice about it but nothing has been done.

Someone posted about it the other day... they will sell various environmentally friendly goods.


> And is the Vietnamese definitely happening?

Again, someone posted on here saying that they were definitely opening one soon.


> Also, whatever happened to Bombay Bicycle Club, I thought they were supposed to be coming too?

I also thought that was a definite... maybe they did some research and realised there were already 87 curry places here?

I went to look at the former Unwins shop on LL and want to turn it into a toy shop. It's very run down though and the rent is very high I think thats why it's been empty for a while now.


Anyone like the toy shop idea? I want to import interesting toys from US as everything here is so samey

Use to be a great toyshop on ll before it was sold and mon petit chou were born,it was a great toy shop and people use to come from miles around for it.Great idea.Having said that importing from the states may not help with the whole carbon footprint recycling initiative we are trying to encourage.so maybe look at local or uk based companies.

Its not as easy as lower offer because there's a 3 bed flat upstairs which isn't separated from the shop itself so you'd really have to live there or carve up half the shop to create its own entrance. Also it needs thousands spending on it before you could even open up as there's no heating and its all in a very poor state of repair.


Think I'll wait until a better site appears - is the Starchey Gallery a permanent fixture on Northcross Rd?


Btw, shipping costs are for shipping not airmail

    • I was in Forest Hill Road today, just past the Rye, and noticed there is a dentist next to the Herne (pub) that has NHS signs outside. I've never had any problems getting NHS dental treatment in East Dulwich, and I get regular check ups. I've been to three  different dental practices here over the years, all with NHS treatment. I think the difficulties are in other parts of the country. Malumbu has a good explanation above. I didn't hear the Radio 4 programme, but I'm guessing that a  radio programme is not going to have time to say where you CAN easily get NHS treatment, and is bound to focus on the negatives and the horror stories, otherwise it would be very boring! ETA: Re children's teeth, I think the major issue is not lack of dentists, it is children being given sugary food, drinks and confectionery which rots their teeth. The education of parents needs to be about this, not just about tooth brushing. And in some cases the poor diet may also be due to lack of money for healthy food. Though of course the lack of dentists doesn't help, if  the tooth rotting can't be rectified by fillings or extraction.
    • Well, I hope you like what you see, the hot air, lack of answers and continual blaming things on the last Government and the made up blackhole, I find are nauseating. The man needs to see reality, because I'd guess that if we had a snap election tomorrow and based on the first six months of this parliament, Labour would get trounced. When the election does finally happen and if that isn't before the people rise up and throw this lot out, Labour will not be voted back in for a millennium.  
    • Yes thanks that's exactly the choices I get.  I will block and if somehow they find a way back I'll report.
