mikecg, sorry, but you are being unfair. 'Mummycat' is an active member of our local community trying to improve Sydenham for good. Saying she doesn't care is simply wrong. There is a drink and drugs problem so it seems. Letting people drink openly on the street and act in a unsociable manner is wr...

You would be surprised at how many of the teens hanging around causing problems actually DO come from so called 'decent' families [working parents etc] the media cant keep blaming all of this on single parents because its gone way beyond that, its not always down to dysfunctional families and povert...

Great pity we lost it.

Hi Lee Sorry for the late reply. It would have no use to me as a church. Possibly as the cinema, but i dont know too much about the type of cinema that they would like to have there? not sure if it would be my type of thing. I dont get to go to the flicks as much as i used to, mainly i take my child...

There is no crystal palace cinema to change into a church That's curious, there are certainly some who believe there was a cinema on the site: http://cinematreasures.org/theater/28989/ My quote above Steve is correct, there isnt a cinema in crystal palace. Tho i do stand corrected thanks to your li...

Ok.....it was last a cinema in 1968

it has been a bingo hall since then until its closure

So i may be wrong in my last post that it wasnt a cinema, point is it hasnt been for over 40 years, so its hardly accurate to call it 'CP cinema'

Hi Lee

Your title is a little bit misleading as the building in question isnt and wasnt a cinema!!

There is no crystal palace cinema to change into a church!

Sorry to be pedantic...but i just think it confuses the issue of the campaign for a cinema on the site.

Eagle, so instead of targetting the guilty as Bensonby suggests you want to punish the innocent who have drunk in public for years. You do realise some of our greatest and revered summer festive events are fuelled (in the positive sense) with a little grape juice. You want the police to inspect my ...

I'm intrigued as to what you'd call it, then. :o A nice long walk? A bus ride (that takes longer than the train)? Going from 100 yards from Forest Hill station to 100 yards from Sydenham station by any means other than the train seems a bit non-obvious to me. It might be a short train ride, but it'...

Count yourselves lucky. When I moved into my flat I was told that the Sydenham surgery was the only place in whose catchment area I fell. I live above the shop next door to Boots. Boots in FOREST HILL, that is. Yes, the ONLY practice to which I can register is a train ride away. Great. Probably it ...

It may not have been your point but the fact that it is common practice explains it.

I also noticed that some of the barbers/hairdressers were trying to rent out chairs to other barbers!!!
That is common practice and always has been in barbers.
