Sydenham Town Forum

This issue has been raised before and has just now re-surfaced: following from Gill's recent querie about facilities for children in the area and my tentative reply to her (am quite new here myself...), there has been a deluge of mails recording similar interest and need. It seems that there is a si...

Sure, will PM you too. Which reminds me... some time ago some members (including me) suggested starting a new "Directory" specifally aimed at people like us - wld include activities for kids, information on childminders, exchange of used clothes, bartering of toys etc. At that stage Admin ...

Oh god, I know it shouldn't be funny but the truth is that... it's hilarious Ronski!

You are all inspiring me.... I am now determined to go to the Tratoria for a gorgeous italian meal with my kids this evening; oh well, we'll just have to run home if need be... Just arrived from work and did what most of you were doing-went into any shop open and chatted, browsed, bought bits and pi...

Hi Gill

I have PMd you

Pat Barker’s Regeneration trilogy: recently recommended by one of our book club members, I just cannot put them down. An extremely moving account of World War I events and their impact on the lives of all of those touched by them. The more affective because some of the characters are real life ones ...

I live in the Thorpes (my patner and I moved recently, when prices were at their lowest and those of where we left - Islington - at their highest, so we were lucky to afford it. I cannot believe what you say about the estate agent... I have never come across such a beautiful group of streets packed ...

done it too!

I sent you a PM on the 14 March re the initial planning meeting on tuesday the 29th. As you were not able to make it I promised I would take forward your suggestions and would get in touch with you after the meeting. Did you get that message? Am worried about not using the system properly... I also ...

There is now a fully funded Sydenham Film Club: if you scroll down under Town Hall you will find confirmation + a 5 minute survey of the kinds of films we would like to see and in what way we would like to be involved.

Fantastic news!

Thank you very much HD for your help and advice - and yes, I copied and pasted my message to all interested parties. Well, as there were 9 of them it wasn't too bad... In future, however, when the club is fully up and running after the next planning meeting I really must learn how to reply to many a...

Hi Rosalind - we have a fairly large & private attic room - my favourite room in the house - and it will be free during those dates. Let me know if you are still searching for a space and if something like that would be adequate. You wld have the keys and come in and out as you would wish. Good ...

:D Chill, Hill! (as my kids would say). And what's a "bumped thread"? Hazy: yes, sure, will avoid the 1st tuesday, I will continue going to the S Library club, such lovely people! Many thanks folks will be in touch when back home this evening; God knows if I will know how to pm so many peo...

Ok, I will stick my neck out...

Tomorrow I will pm all those who have expressed a firm interest in forming a brand new book club; I will suggest a venue - the day will be tuesday (a stated choice from one of us) and the time probably 7pm.

To be continued..

I have now joined a book club in the Sydenham Library - it happens on the first tuesday of the month, from 6.60 to 7.30. I do find, however, that the time if very inconvenient for me - so early and clashing with returns from work, tea time, etc; also one hour, I feel, is a very short time - especial...

Quoting from the last writers: - there are so few childcare places for so many children. - the East Dulwich Forum regularly has nannies advertising under the Family Classified section Could we not have one in this Forum as well? Administrator, is that not possible? I am looking after my daughter's b...

I too have moved in recently and, on the advice of the people who sold us their house, registered with sydenham Greem Practice. I think they are fantastic and we don't in the least miss the surgery we left behind - and which we always thought was the best...

...A few days later, due to 'flue, I am back in the Forum. I found a copy of the fabulous Sydenham Arts Festival brochure and there it was, right as I opened the first pages, information on local choirs and a "Book Group Party" - where you could come along and meet people from established ...

Yes, yes, I think you are right: the pub idea is a great one (of course)

We will see if there are enough takers. How many is enough, I wonder? Suggestions completely different from mine highly welcome
