Sydenham Town Forum

Hi all Does anyone know what is happening at Sydenham tyres? I saw a stack of a few hundred trees outside the shop when it was closed. How is that allowed it could kill someone if it collapsed. It’s outrageous!! Piles of trees! Maybe they're doing some sort of environmental offsetting, for every ty...

Sounds great and I would definitely go for a swim in the lake but only if Lewisham council has given it a healthy dose of urine-indicator dye.

Hello As part of the project to demolish the Bell Green gas holders we are currently in the process of cleaning the gas holder tanks. Cleaning these tanks can generate odours in and around the area, however although these odours can be unpleasant, they do not pose any risk to health or the environm...

The point of my "thin" evidence is that it was so bad 30yrs ago I upped and got out . From my regular reading of the moans groans and complaints on here, and the odd trip down Kirkdale and Sydenham road via google street to marvel at the variety of fastfood joints,closed pubs and shops, graffiti, t...

before paying too much notice to anything that Milton says, I would click on their name and view previous posts. They belong in a shed along with the other tools... If Milton wanted to stay away from Sydenham so much then I would question why they insist on constantly coming here and posting tripe ...

Leave sooner, drive slower, live longer posters should be erected at both ends of Knighton Park Road to help reduce near misses.

Stuart, excellent stuff, I've started using your link and also passed onto others. Probably the most informative post I've seen on this forum. Many thanks.

I hope both the Zigghy coffee shop and members of this forum will not be feeding trolls...

Admin, apologies tried to turn up to the meeting but went to the wrong venue, spent 2hours nursing halh a pint of Beck's in the Dolphin!!! If we are going down the annoymity route does anyone know how I change my login to Romeo T wildbeast?

We need pubs, kebab shops and knocking shops, not necessarily in that order.
Also more 24 hour opening times for kitchen appliance type outlets for the non male type people.

I recommend John's barbers in Lower Sydenham, a local barbers for local people.

The Victoria to London Bridge loop line must be up there, especially the almost daily announcements on the evening rush hour trains of- ‘due to the late running of this train this service is now fast from Crystal Palace to London Bridge, sorry for any inconvenience’....SUCKERS (well a driver never a...

They're just a bunch of crazy mixed up kids in a cold uncaring world. Me thinks a few hugs may go someway to show them they're not alone and the good folk of Sydenham feel their pain.

If it's of any help I Googled Penfold and got this result: https://goo.gl/images/3TibvU
Hope it helps.

Bit confused about the slightly over-familiar comment, are we talking "alwight mate how ya diddling" or are we talking '"Your wife, does she go, eh, does she go, eh?, bet she does, I bet she does, say no more, say no more, know whatahmean, nudge nudge?"

As this subject is becoming a bit divisive and causing some disharmony I suggest a referendum for everyone who lives in SE26 with the simple question: Should the Bell Green gas holders be pulled down? YES NO Both the Brexit and Scottish referendums proved popular and did a lot to bring communities t...

I think it maybe the same chap who I spotted the other day asking for small change ( in a non-aggressive way) outside Sainsbury’s. I was totally shocked when in response to his pleas of ‘anyone got any spare change, any coppers, I haven’t eaten anything in four days,’ a well-dressed young woman pass...

I say give it time, The Eiffel Tower and Tower Bridge were initially hated by everyone but now they are iconic landmarks recognised the world over, St Philip Neri catholic primary may finally put Sydenham on the world stage.

Which is better residents of Bellingham, Perry Vale or Sydenham Wards? There's only one way to find out: FIGHT!!

Does the Sydenham Society have a strapline? If not I suggest- We're the Sydenham Society son, and we haven't had any dinner.
