The record shop won't happen because of high rents and low turnover - especially during the week.


I think a cinema could really work though - a small place with just two screens showing a mixture of mainstream and indie films would be perfect. A little concession counter selling coffee and cake during the day, beer in the evening...

There was but they no longer operate out of the shop for the reasons Jeremy pointed out. They now occupy a more virtual space (and a pub in Herne Hill a lot of the time): http://dreammachinerecords.co.uk/

"A community run film society, we are long established in East Dulwich and show quality films at reasonable prices"


It's not a cinema but it shows decent films on a screen in front of a group of people.

Bike shop on the rye sounds superb.

Cinema is great but to be honest you've got the best in London not too far away. Brixton Ritzy is really nice since all the work, and for cheapness there's PeckhamPlex.


Plus, hate to be realistic and everything, but unless one of the churches decides to sell, there aren't any apt buildings for conversion.

second the B&B / hotel idea, know loads of couples who live in flats with no space for overnight guests and the Diana hotel is on a main road (W.Dulwich) and cpl of others are basically rooms in family homes, which then leaves staying in a hotel and paying loads in London Bridge or elsewhere central...

Ah, good old John Lynch.

Bring back the stocks to Goose Green.


There might no longer be free grazing Geese there that could be stolen and the thief put in the stocks,

but there must be persons who would have allowed animals to cause nuisance to the populace and their apparel.

There could be Aviators causing disturbance over Common ground to the discomfort of the peoples way of life.


A seated stocks for two souls would sufice.


Under health regulations any rotten fruit or vegetables thrown at the thieves must afterwards be removed to be discarded in the Brown Wheelie Bins.

    • As a result of the Horizon scandal it now seems very clear that the Post Office management are highly disingenuous and not be trusted!  There needs to be a campaign launched to challenge the threatened closure, unless the Post Office can demonstrate beyond doubt that the branch is loss making - and even then it could argued that better management could address this. I hope the local media take this up and our MP  and a few demonstrations outside wouldn’t do any harm. Bad publicity can be very effective!         
    • Unlikely. It would take a little more than a bit of Milton to alter the pH of eighty-odd thousand gallons of water.
    • It actually feels as though what I said is being analytically analysed word by word, almost letter by better. I really don't believe that I should have to explain myself to the level it seems someone wants me to. Clearly someones been watching way too much Big Brother. 
    • Sadly they don't do the full range of post office services
