I'm sanguine about this, having lived on the continent for a while but at the end of the day, it's about how people behave. I saw a woman in a bar recently ask the barman to turn the music down as "my child wants to sleep, isn't it obvious?", which left me open mouthed.

A pub is till a pub..by any other name...7.30pm seems more than reasonable as the ''cut-off' time...varied people frequent a pub for varying reasons..maybe to let off steam..maybe just to get out of the house...maybe it just took 2 hours to get from London Bridge !!!!,.. whatever the reason, builders,bakers,teachers or law-makers should all be able to have a glass of wine or libation of choice knowing that they will not be disturbed by over-exuberant kids... or screaming babies.. surely that is what Cafe Nero is for !!:)...does that close at 7.30???

And who would their child around a load of drunken builders/teachers/lawyers anyway????;)

People don't generally drink so heavily on the continent in the way we do here so bars are relatively safe for children. Big generalisation I know.

Slightly off topic- but we had plumbers round a couple of weeks ago installing a boiler. They over-ran and were still busy at 6-8pm when kids aged 1 and 3 were returning from childminders/nursery. Flat was pretty uninhabitable. Went to the pub but only as we couldn't think of anywhere else to go at that time? Felt we had to explain ourselves to everyone in there as well.

Where do people take young children this time of day/early eve if they need to get out for whatever reason?

The answer is: Pizza Express in Dulwich Village. Or Rocca.

    • Sorry to hear that this is happening to your son. East Dulwich Grove doesn't fall into Dulwich Hill ward, it is split depending on the postcode it would either be Goose Green SNT or Dulwich Village SNT, you may check which one using the link below. On the website would also be the team and any events being held in the future. If it is an emergency please call 999 or non-emergencies 101. https://www.met.police.uk/area/your-area/
    • CIC is not the appropriate vehicle for a fund-raising intermediary.  CICs are for businesses that typically sell something or provide a service for social good  but are not for profit; a community cafe or arts centre, or an IT skills training centre for  unemployed people. it costs £65 to set up  a CIC, the scrutiny is less than for a full charity, and the administrative burden is pretty low if you don’t file accounts. It’s hard to prove a negative, but if you were trying to build a credible, positive case for giving money to street collectors for CityHive CIC, that might be a little harder still… tho thank you, Zahid for joining the Forum to give it a go.
