Sydenham Town Forum

Thanks guys, it was nice to meet some old faces and some new ones tonight. You have a great set-up. I am obviously really out of shape, and could barely kick the ball. Was a good opportunity to say goodbye, but you never know ,.....if i happen to be working in Sydenham/Beckenham on a Wednesday, I ma...

i can't find my footie trainers. I think i may have prematurely thrown them out.

I have some running shoes that should suffice, but may be festering , and a bit of a home to bacteria. I don't mind being sub for some of the match, in fact i'll probably welcome it.

see you later

Cost ?
Kickoff time ?

i'll pay subs and bring my boots. Can't guarantee how long i'll last, but can alway don the keepers gloves and have a bit of a nap on the goal-line. :D If you're after additional players (generally), it might be worth asking ADMIN to stick a pinned topic at the top of the Sports Forum, as a reminder...

Hello chaps, This is a message from the distant past. I would love to say farewell to you guys, but am presently in the conditon called 'fat'. I hope to drop by on the 9th, but may not actually play. You guys are now super-fit and technically experienced. I would stand no chance. Plus this has devel...

I like Lee's winning entry. Has potential to be utterly fantastic. Any glitches regarding lighting and viewing persepctive can be easily accomodated, and resolved. I am confident of this through my significant engineering experience (nothing to do with art !). Alright, it's not an original idea (i t...

Well I'll be 'Billy No-mates' at the bar.

Thanks for your kind wishes

Is there a link/picture of the winning design ? or can't it yet be seen for copyright reasons ?

i've just been informed by a friend that someone was trying to take photos of the Greyhound site yesterday through the open gates. A workman saw the photographer and shouted something along the lines of ,..."Clear off, no photos, this is a private site" I told him i'd posted a few pictures...

i don't recall seeing a house like that on Sydenham Road. When you say 'The High Street', i think Kirkdale used to be The High Street in 1905, and it would seem there are similar houses (now flats) on Kirkdale

it's easy to get down-hearted after all the effort. Extension of Conservation Areas, thwarting of arsonists,...just to see the pub almost totally destroyed "for structural reasons" Let's give the developer and the Council time to formulate a solution which may prove to be a valuable asset ...

and i took these today, now the sheeting has been removed

I understood a food outlet was part of the Planning Permission sought for the site. Obviously the economic downturn delayed the (whole) project and the owners of the site are still looking to attract businesses. I think a drive-through was considered an option also, but have no idea what the final o...

If i remember

Excellent. Can I also add that I spoke with Ashley White of London Wildlife yesterday, and she is interested in coming along, and perhaps answering questions on the natural history of the woods. I am in the process of seeing if this is OK with Steve Grindlay, but it gives an excellent opportunity of...

Mr and Mrs Lambchops have said they will make an appearance. Don't let that put anyone off

Finw stuff. That'll make 4 thus far.

hopefully we'll get a few more takers

the title about sums it up. I am moving from Sydenham in probably not very many weeks. It would be good to meet old friends and new, for a few bevvies at The Bricklayers Arms on Dartmouth Road (Kirkdale end). The pub has recently undergone extensive rennovation and is an outstanding asset to the loc...

Great stuff, 15 and counting,....
