We moved to ED in 2000 and it was "up-and-coming" then. We've seen a lot of change over the last decade, some good, some bad. We're just about to move out of the area because we feel it's far too crowded, you don't get much for your money, parking is a nightmare, there's a lot of pressure on local school, the bit of E Dulwich where you can park easily is miles form the station, and - not usre how to put this without being rude but - it's getting a definite Clapham-esque feel to it (number arrogant tw@ts is on the up).


THere's definitely things we'll miss but it's not the kind of place I want to bring my daughter up. THere is life beyond se22!

It's not particularly rude thing to point out at all. In fact if you read the MP thread I would say it is directly proportional to the increase in the number of tories* in the area. Well tories who couldn't afford Clapham so sort of failed tories.


But you know they're trying.


It's still nicer thatn clapham though.


*Not counting all the ones who wear hoodies and live on estates in Peckham of course.

Actually this is untrue... plenty of parking a 2 min walk to the station if you know where to look.


Besides, most places in ED are an easy walk to the station, unless you live right down the Forest Hill/Honour Oak end.

    • The Oxfam shop refusal may be because they have very limited storage space at the back of their very small shop?
    • I agree. The staff are always lovely!  
    • Hi, does anyone know anything about the generator that seems to run from 7am every day in the car park of Dominic Court off The Gardens? I live in a property that backs on to that car park and it’s incredibly noisy and fumey. It’s been there for a long time now and it looks like it’s powering a site office for construction workers. Does anyone have any information about how long it will be there for, and who is operating it? I worry about the quality of the air as it’s like having a truck running constantly. And it’s very annoying to have it rumbling all day.    
    • Most charity shops will take rags for textile recycling. I’ve also donated to Christopher’s, Shelter on LL and Scope in Camberwell. The only one I’ve known to refuse is the Oxfam in Herne Hill.
