I think we should just have an empty shop. That way people could pass by and just marvel at the emptiness. Each individual could ascribe to the emptiness their own meaning. eg:


"Is the emptiness within this shop a symbolic expression of the emptiness in my soul that is evidence by the fact that the greatest passion in my life is an over-arching obsession with house prices?"


"Does his empty shop represent the emptiness and lack of purpose I feel deep within and which I try to camouflage by bragging publicly of my material possessions and favourite brand of champagne?"

Haven't we already got a sort of empty shop. That art/installation gaff on New Cross Road? The one that played the film of the woman in the bathing suit running about a garden.....on continous loop.


posh clothes and cushions. Mr MW74 will be peeved. There goes more money unecessarily spent on tat, by me!

    • I agree... perhaps you could also write to our local councillors to point these things out. Never know they might actually reply! Thanks for your help speaking to Monica. She may hopefully have useful contacts re obtaining a key. Completely agree - what's on (which could include some small businesses  such as Theatre Peckham, which I think may be a charity or at least community not for profit? And school fairs type thing..) plus anything the community would find useful, such as free events for the elderly (LinkAge are active in ED and surrounding areas) and lots more.
    • Thanks that’s all really useful.
    • Looks like they have massive issues with numbers of visitors too... “People have literally just arrived and are refusing to leave. Chaos. They booked out all the lane spaces but let people in. Absolute sh*t show.” https://www.the-londoner.co.uk/were-police-called-to-brockwell-lido/
    • I agree that someone somewhere must at one point decided on their purpose, however if anything was ever written down it is probably long lost, given the turnover of councillors and council staff . The Crofton Park noticeboards I mentioned above are solely for information about the council  and various community groups and activities, plus  various community related things such as the library times and services.  I think they are very bright, interesting and inviting, however I am not going back there solely in order to take a photo The ones in East Dulwich don't have much on them because ... well, for the reasons on this thread 🤣 Quite apart from the fact that these are supposed to be community notice boards, there are all sorts of reasons why they should not be used for private businesses to advertise, as I and others have already said. Yes there have been huge changes in the area, but I can't see how those changes affect the purpose of community noticeboards, unless you think that the changes mean that there is no longer a "community" in East Dulwich. Which would be very sad indeed. Anyway, I am stepping away from this thread now, I have other things to do 🙄
