Raid above Chef's Delight

There was a Police raid above Chef's Delight last evening, with the high street blocked off. And that explains why the police helicopter was overhead.

Postal deliveries

Today, 29 Dec, I had my first postal delivery since the end of Nov. But not many letters and all of them were sent between 11 - 24 Nov. Nothing more recent. I know I am definitely missing stuff, including Christmas cards. Maybe the Dec post is in a different sack!

Re: Moynuls restaurant

After a long time closed, I see Moynuls / Madina is soon to be yet another Indian restaurant. The banner says "Sydenham Tandoori. Authentic Indian restaurant. Opening 8 Nov 2021"
Hope they have better luck this time.

Re: Reduced Southern service

Strangely, last Saturday when there was a point failure and the Overground wasn't running from Forest Hill towards London, the Southern trains were running from FH and Sydenham to Victoria. There were 2 an hour.

Re: Performance of GP surgeries in SE London.

I totally agree as I find it virtually impossible to get through to the surgery on the phone.

Re: Forest Hill Pools

I managed to register, but the app won't let me log in, the circle just keeps spinning. So I can't book anything even though I've signed up. And staff at the reception don't know what's wrong with the app!

Re: Mayow Park Bowls Green booked up all summer

I think it is being taken over by a croquet club, so will no longer be used for bowls.

Re: Replacement for Penge Lidl

I popped in for a look and although it looks nice, it seems expensive. Tinned soup is expensive and a couple of other things I looked at.
