Sydenham Town Forum

We're not talking about a few houses being built on the caravan club site tucked away behind trees are we DickP? The planning permission is for 180 housing units to be built on the Rockhills and Sydenham Gate areas. And whilst much was made about the fact that the 90 units on Rockhills would take up...

Apparently the courts have said yes to the developers, should this be allowed? What do you think? [ Post made via Mobile Device ] http://sydenham.org.uk/mobile.png What a stitch up! Mr Justice Kieth attributed the thrust of the challenge to the impact on bats! This was clearly not the case but he w...

Fr Orton,

I'm shocked to see you bring up ladies' secretions and suggest you seek absolution pdq.

I'm off for a lie down....

*cough cough*
Really chaps, I had no idea the pubic bar was men only.
@Admin, can I request that the pub is given a warning to drop the sexist door policy or be permanently closed?

and for a satirical take on it try this:

Thanks for your support Clown. It was a well attended, peaceful and good humoured protest. The KICC event was not the 1,000 strong crowd it was billed as, which was a relief to protestors who had turned up expecting to be hopelessly outnumbered. Here's a few pics: http://www.virtualnorwood.com/forum...

Not really Sydenham, is it ? Depends how you look at this. Church Road is not in Sydenham it is in Crystal Palace. Sydenham and Crystal Palace meet in the park. Large events that take place in the park and in CP town centre do effect (usually in a positive way) the Sydenham area. As the proposed us...

I saw the following notice on Virtual Norwood and thought I'd post it here: SAY “NO” TO TAKING TERRITORIES - SAVE 25 CHURCH ROAD FOR A CINEMA! The Crystal Palace Triangle Group (CPTPG) invites local residents and traders to join them on Saturday 21st May 2011 from 12:45 PM for a peaceful, symbolic p...

I have heard that the protest this Saturday 12.30pm-2pm at the land bedside the bus garage is against KICC's intended plans for 25 CR and not to their right to have a service in the park. It is important to send a clear message to Bromley council and the Charities Commission that KICC's presence in ...

Why thank you Eagle, am glad it was helpful. However it is important not to give up on 25CR when there is still hope. It is worth bearing in mind that whilst currently the venue cannot be used as a cinema (D2) it can never be used as a church(D1). KICC have revealed a new proposed programme of mixed...

I was merely trying to defend the underdog in this controversy against what on the face of it might, it seemed to me, be unfair smears. Robin the underdog here is the CP community. A multi million corporate conglomerate breezes into town, snatches the only significant D2 venue from City Screens (CS...

Panmum then added a link to a 2005 newspaper article by a notoriously sensationalist (I believe) religious affairs reporter which purported to show what a generally undeserving gang of scoundrels KICC are. I challenged him/her as to whether the article did in fact show that. Robin is correct to poi...

Thanks for the heads up panmum. It turns out this event has been sanctioned for up to 1,000 attendees by Bromley Council and that when it comes to licensing religious gatherings/events are exempt. KICC fill the ExCel Centre with 25,000 a day during the International Gathering of Champions (IGoC) anu...

It would seem that these creative posters you speak of may not be as creative as you think, or just haven't been paying enough attention, or perhaps both. Ooo, is you trying to get a rise outa the Duke, Wolfman? How dare thou question the flow of the superior creative juices that doth flow in abund...

Here's Jim Dowd's reply to my email (see my posting of 26 February) Thank you for your e-mail regarding Crystal Palace Football Club’s initial proposals for Crystal Palace Park. I must apologise for the delay in this reply. As you are aware the plans produced by the football club are very much in t...

My favourite rag and tipple Admin :) how could I not?
