If you have to ask this on a public internet forum I doubt you are qualified in terms of hygiene to provide any food! Hang on though, you did say Northcross Rd 'market'? Ask Foxy. .

Grok is right. Please make sure you abide by all the necessary regulations in order to qualify as being a ?market? stall - according to DulwichFox - our local market inspector.



- the only goods that can be sold are apples, potatoes, bananas, items made from polyester (clothing, luggage), sweets sold by the scoop that look like well-known sweets but don?t taste the same.


- Goods for sale and prices of said goods should be declared to passers-by in an unintelligible fashion at top volume - like a donkey which has just had a stick shoved up it?s ringpiece.


- wear your leather money pouch at all times and be sure to smoke one roll-up (no cigarettes please) every five minutes, especially if you?re handling food.


- gentlemen should be addressed as ?mate?, ladies as ?darlin??


- all communication should be in French, like they do in France - The Spiritual Home Of Markets




Follow these rules and you can?t go far wrong. ?It?s what the people want?

Good see Star-Bob-Star back.. have missed you ridiculous comments..


I haven't been posting myself here recently and was talking about this to someone else

who was inquiring why The Forum was so quiet.


I replied 'They don't have anyone to have a go at..' as Louisa was also not posting.


But then I put 2-3 posts up and the Forum has bust into life.. You could not make it up..


Talk about neigbourhood watch...


Awaiting comments about Egoism, Narcissism, and all the other -isms


P.S.

By the way by definition...

Egoism does not uplift oneself above others. It is venal but not at the expense of others.

Egoism can be considered a virtue. It can be a vivid or a normative view.


Hope that helps..

Take no notice of *bob*'s comments.. They are purely personal.


He thinks he thinks he is funny but Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit.


There are IMHO some hygiene issues but it seems to be overlooked by some.

I'm not the Market Inspector. I use common sense. People here will bad mouth certain well established

mainly Asian outlets but wont have a word said about the market. One has to draw ones own conclusions

on why that may be..


I once asked about how to get a stall and was told 'There's a long waiting list..' and harder if you are

going to be selling similar goods to those already available..

There are many food outlets already but cannot see that being a problem.


Good luck with your new venture..

DF it seems the minute you or I burst back into life, the forum starts to react. It's like a chemical reaction.


I gave posting a break too as I felt A few folk were over indulging in goading, the greedy swines (yes that includes you *Bob*). So now they've had a bit of a crash diet, no doubt these couple of posts will give you something to feed on. I'm still banned from the main section, I think this forum reaps what it sows. Ban informative members and end up up with no forum at all. As you were.

Missed you too Seabag. Like a caged lion that's not been fed in a while, I do hope you enjoyed chomping on that feast of a post I just fed you! I think the Goading stick needs its battery recharging my love!


And red devil could you not pick a better actress? I like to see myself as a slightly more matured Jodie Foster of sorts, and I picture foxy as more of a Donald Sutherland (Hunger Games incarnation) kind of chap. Nice try though.

I did that too *Bob*, but it's not enough.

To show my appreciation I've decided to have his photo transferred onto icing to adorn my EDF anniversary cake, 8 years in a month's time. I just wouldn't have made it this far without him...

      Nursery Recommendations

      By turtle1409 · Posted

      We are expecting a baby in a few months, and have heard about the epic waiting lists for nurseries in the area... We have been to look around, and are considering, LEYF Camberwell, N Family Club Camberwell and Purple Jay Herne Hill. Would love to hear any feedback from experienced parents!

      Most of the shops in LL have too small a footprint. That's why we have so few chains. That won't change quickly.

      Noise from Wide Awake festival

      By Rockets · Posted

      Errr could it be because of the noise pollution coming from it perhaps? You may not be able to hear it where you live but anyone on the Dulwich Village side of Lordship Lane all the way to beyond Brockwell Park is being disturbed by it - the sound wash from it is huge and that's a lot of people. As I said before we know people who live nearer to Brockwell Park to us and they say it is unbearable.   To be fair the Emirates moved to a piece of wasteland between railway tracks so it actually in a less densely populated area now and the council actually goes out of their way to try to mitigate the impact on local residents and yes, other than the concerts, you could hear a pin drop on matchdays! 😉

      Chains moving in is a sure sign that LL is heading for a fall. They are parasites, waiting for the independents to be successful and then, in partnership with rapacious landlords, they move in and force out those very businesses who have created the market they then seek to exploit. They replace a lively diversity with a bland and predictable offering. Then, when a downturn arrives, they move out, leaving boarded up premises and charity shops. Independent businesses who have worked hard to make a success of their efforts will try to see out hard times as they’ve invested so much. Chains look only at the bottom line and think nothing of closing branches. Chains are liable also to expand too fast, be managed badly and then collapse. Think of Brick House being forced out by Gail’s, the closure of White Stuff (although that chain was replaced by another) and JoJo Maman Bebe. . Sadly, I fear that will be the future of LL.
