Sydenham Town Forum

The Forest Hill Society are joining with The Hill on Dartmouth Road* to bring you a traditional Burns Supper. This is an event popular with people from across Forest Hill and Sydenham, so I hope you don't mind me posting here. Burns night will start at 7:30 for drinks and chats, bring old friends wi...

SEE3 does not just comprise of Chris Best. For example: Michael you follow the posts on the Forum regularly, you are involved with SEE3. Is that right? If so why are you not contributing, why is no one from SEE3 doing this? Instead we find out there are further bids via SEE3 which have not been wid...

Lee,
I was just about to suggest you try the Framing Salon in Forest Hill, run by the same people as Stag & Bow. http://www.foresthillsociety.com/2014/1 ... salon.html
Nice to hear you are already talking to them.

I would be happy to pass on her details via PM, if you want them. She is a lovely lady who lives locally and has had shops all over London in the past but has now chosen to open a shop close to where she lives.

On 27th and 28th December there will be a replacement bus service operated by Southern to London Bridge. As a result of lobbying by Forest Hill Society this replacement bus service will be increased from 4 buses per hour to 10 buses per hour (6 buses to/from London Bridge and an additional 4 to/from...

Barry, I don't think you are being entirely fair to Richard. Yes, there will be more capacity on the Bakerloo line, although not all will necessarily get as far as Hayes (some may terminate at Lewisham, to allow for increased capacity on the central section, and others may be diverted to Bromley tow...

If I may, I'd like to briefly defend the concept of the animal safari which was met with enthusiasm when presented to the SEE3 meeting which included traders, artists, local people and forumites. It is not a new idea, it is inspired by the cow parade and similar projects around the world: http://en....

You wouldn't get me in Zanzibar, in aid of Ebola or not. How about for a community consultation tomorrow evening on running all night on Christmas Eve, Boxing Day, and New Years Eve? http://sydenham.org.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=12239&p=105145 However, the public have no real say in whet...

I'm pleased it has been corrected with the correct name and the correct job title. And I think that Mr Jasper has dealt with harsher criticism in the past.

Anybody else confused?

In response to Michael - who I think may be being a bit facetious here - I don't see any reason to question the judgement which planning officers have made on the amount of "affordable" housing and this scheme's overall viability. Of course they may have got it wrong, and should have held...

The Number of Affordable Units 3.4 As agreed with LB Lewisham, a viability appraisal, justifying and demonstrating the maximum, reasonable type and quantum of affordable housing provision has been submitted confidentially for review by an independent consultant appointed by the Council. 3.5 The ass...

Louise will be opening up a permanent shop soon. It has no chance of working. I'm sure everybody else on this forum wishes Louise every success with her new business, and in putting her personal money where her mouth is. I don't think any new independent business should be attacked in this way befo...

On the night this happened the owner said he was shocked and that it was "the most brutal thing he had ever seen" and that his dog had never done anything like this before. The next day he to my house with a bunch of flowers and said that his dog has attacked cats and dog before and that ...

Well said Billie. The reply from Joanne to Louise's post was absolutely disgraceful: "Sorry Louise but you are clueless". As bad in its brevity as the insults and insinuations that Joanne was throwing around when she first appeared on this site (and which she has since deleted). This is a ...

Admin,
I hope you don't mind me using your picture in this way. I posted your picture to their Google+ account which was sadly lacking any nice pictures. Rather nice effect I think.

I'm no hacker, but I believe it would be possible to register a domain and set up a site linking directly to the campaign to save the Greyhound. With links for local websites, and greater traffic than their main site, there is a good chance it could move higher up the Google rankings. But that is pr...

The reviews are going well. Down from 5 stars yesterday to 1.5 stars today. https://www.facebook.com/pages/The-Purelake-Group/412208095541981?sk=reviews If you do a Google search on Purelake you can leave a review of the company there as well (possibly you need a Google+ account). The great thing ab...

I think reviews work slightly differently to comments on a page. Hopefully deleting reviews is at least against the spirit of Facebook.
Leave your own reviews and we'll see what happens.

Why not leave a review of this company:
