Sydenham Town Forum

I've always wondered about where one "moves people on to" if they don't have a permanent base or aren't part of a travelling community. In the past it might not have mattered that much (out of site out of mind) but these days that is not in style. I'm thinking about how these days society demands th...

Here is a list of local suppliers who are offering a delivery services - I'm sure it will change regularly and there will always be firms not on it who are offering deliveries.

Good to hear that's up and running

Also power off for a short while in Upper Sydenham (Wells Park area)

It might be this - police appealing for information about an incident on 14th February on Lawrie Park Gardens https://nextdoor.co.uk/news_feed/?post=17592193285864 If you can't access the NextDoor post text is as follows: " On 14th February at approximately 06:20am a knife-point robbery occurred on ...

They offer a great service - I know I could get cheaper at other places but not the service and pleasure from being served by interested knowledgeable staff. I am more comfortable not treating my vision as a commodity - I prefer a relationship with opticians. It's not about the individual transactio...

I have no idea what is planned for this site.

Howevee I know that some Sydenham residents sometimes find themselves homeless and some bailed.

Better that there are local places for them to live in and so avoid displacement from their (our) local community.

Happy Christmas to all.

I know Amazon are getting into fresh food deliveries and own Whole Foods - but can you now actually get deliveries from PFC using Amazon Prime? I didn't know they had a web presence. If they do that would be amazing. I suppose it would be something similar to how Uber Eats or Deliveroo pick up from ...

Great 'clickbait' title - I thought this would be something from the 1960s rather than the 1660s. A good informative read nevertheless. Thanks.

A valuable reminder that the "ends do not justify the means". Honestly believing in someone's guilt (even if true) doesn't justify the fabrication of evidence.

Taylored Lofts have done similar work work for us recently. They are local, a family firm, and specialise in lofts (as the name suggests) but are also general builders (extensions, new builds etc.). They have good links with planning experts to help that part of the journey. They've been doing lofts...

Not sure whether I'll actually use this but I live between Sydenham and Sydenham Hill stations and often decide on the fly which one to use - this seems a quick way of assessing what's actually going on at the time. And then making a decision as to travel routes.

Works well - clean and tidy - URL saved to my phone home page

Please provide any information to the police on this - even if only suspicions. Local police (Safer Neighbourhood Team - SNT) will be interested and follow-up / join it with other intelligence they receive. They will be happy to visit and take information. Sydenham residential burglaries have seen a...

As I said I can't answer your question but on the recent (pre-decision) tour of the site with councillors and architects the architects were surprised at how steep some of the slopes were and how much water flowed under the site. This seems to confirm as was suggested earlier that the architects, wh...

Or maybe they used this report as a diversionary excuse for cancellation as it enabled them to walk away from the scheme as it stood without having to acknowledge it was fundamentally flawed. I.e. they could maintain some semblance of dignity. This is pure conjecture on my part; I have no inside kno...

Got myself out of buying a round for STF Users then - what an unforeseen consequence.

Should be there - mine is the H2SO4.

Thanks for this info. Will try and remember to watch ('live' or later).
