Nice but a bit pricey. Full of yummy mummies and their brats this morning. Bloody place is turning into to East Dulwich!

Brilliant observation Sparticus. Its weird having to pay a little more for great tasting food, perhaps you should eat at some of the more established 'delight' ful restaurants ...

After emailing Chris Best, my issues was kindly directed to Sarah Foraud of the Green Scene division Lewisham Council, which to my knowledge are responsible for making Lewisham greener. Here is the conversation.....

Dear Mr Arnott

Thank you for your enquiry ...

I have posed the questions to Chris Best, as she has helped me many times in the past. I will post any responses I get from her and hope it's in time to save the other trees!

last night at midnight my whole family was woken by a loud noise on Fairlawn Park that continued for a long time, it was two chainsaws and a tree shredder.

I left my house this morning to find one of the beautiful trees near the start of the road had been reduced to a trunk. The same tree that I ...

Has anyone got the details of a local carpenter. I want to get my whole loft space boarded.

Many thanks

Does anyone know if Rineys will be back to finish the work they started? It seems to me that the Kent House Road end of the works still has refinements to be made. The new tree plantings have not been finished to the spec of the high street, just sand added to the top soil rather then the hard ...

So, it looks as though we are due three new trees by the holes that have been cut into the concrete. Fingers crossed they survive the local kids.

Hi,

Yes i to was pretty upset to see the lovely blossom tree felled and am equally concerned about the lack of replacement tree areas in the new concrete wasteland. Please don't get me wrong, I am more then happy to see the pavement upgraded, but the whole area needs to be softened by trees and ...

Totally agree with Gman.

A deli- there is no where in Sydenham to buy nice cheeses, tasty cured meats or fresh tapas. WellBeing has a small selection of nice bread and cheese, but the prices are over inflated and the owner is not the most personable man I have ever met (im sure not everyone will ...

Love it, Sushi for us please! Definitely do not position the yourselves anywhere other then the main high street. We DO NOT venture onto Dartmouth road so you'd be alienating a lot of hungry customers setting up there. Good luck!

Hi

I was wondering if anyone in Sydenham knows of a local (south East London) Print Makers/ Screen Printers that allows people to use their facilities? I am looking to screen print some of my art and am interested in any info anyone may have.

Cheers,

Jim

Where's my angle grinder!!

They are rank and will become as tacky and covered in Guano as the Catford cat. The fact that they have been described as Christmas decorations or a bit of fun made by the builders goes to show how utterly appalling they are as a permanent fixture or sculptures. As you can tell, its hit a nerve with ...

Thanks Annie, pun was intended.

Bad show on the Babara Hepworth front even worse on the metal tree front at Lower Sydenham. Is nobody on the town planning/public spaces front bothered what Sydenham's turning into, I seemed to still get shocked strangely, loving the new funeral parlour on the high ...

After driving past the development on Bell Green the other day, I was confronted by the tasteless sculptures (if that word can be used to describe them) that have been added for all to enjoy. My only thought (hope) was that someone out there might see an opportunity for scrap metal and go and angle ...
