A2-0 pumping by league favourites Dartford in August left Dulwich fans wondering which position the Hamlet could best hope to be in by the season’s climax. A mere two days later our perkiness was restored by the joy of six as the Pink and Blues penetrated hapless Hemel Hempstead’s defence with some comfort, shunting half a dozen goals past Hertfordshire’s most senior alliterated team. A battling draw in sunny Eastbourne followed by a somewhat bonkers 3-1 victory against Hungerford Town left the Hamlet sniffing around the playoffs like a drug-squad spaniel. Sanguinity abounds. And the crowds are back to see them do it. Champion Hill is bouncing to an average of 2000 of your fellow locals at each home game; a number that turns the atmosphere up to eleven, but which feels comfortable and Covid safe. You should come down to see East Dulwich’s finest. Buy a pint and a pie. And pat the many dogs that eagerly patrol the pitch’s perimeter for dropped and discarded food. Meanwhile Dulwich Hamlet Women are sweeping all before them in the London and South East Regional Women’s Premier league. The football is as spicy as a Peckham peri peri, with the Daughters of Edgar Kail looking like early contenders for honours. Too much excitement at the Stadio della Dog Kennel Hill Sainsbury’s already! We’re not sure our sleepy southern suburb can cope.But cope it must. And what better way to cope than to don one of the Hamlet’s brand new and very fine replica shirts. Prices range from £25-35, with sizes ranging from 3/6 months for the nippers to 4XL for the big boned. Imagine yourself swaggering down Lordship Lane in one of these; buying fancy cheeses, stocking up on baked products, trying on yoga pants. Like an absolute boss. You can get all the right clobber via the online shop at www.dhst.org.uk or at the megacontainer club shop on match day. And as ever you can check out all the details of upcoming games at www.pitchero.com/clubs/dulwichhamlet/. We’ll sithee down at Champion Hill, as Fred Trueman might have said.

The Dulwich Players are delighted to announce that our next production will feature an allfemale cast performing the touching and comic Steel Magnolias. Originally planned for 2020, but delayed due to Covid-19, the challenges in this play epitomise much of the last year and the struggles we have faced as a theatre group. The title refers to its characters, who exhibit the delicate characteristics of magnolias, but are often called upon to be as tough as steel. Steel Magnolias charts a path though the life of Shelby Eaterton, from her wedding day to less happier events. It takes place within the walls of Truvy’s hair and beauty emporium in the American deep south – what better place to throw shade on everyone in the local community and further. Tickets: £12 available online via:

The Edward Alleyn Theatre, Dulwich College, Dulwich Common SE21 7LD

Andy and Terry have added thirteen new levels to their Treehouse (it used to be 130 storeys, but it keeps on growing!) including a word-o-matic (it knows every word in the whole world!); a recycling depot; a wrecking ball; a deep, dark cave with a real live, fire-breathing dragon; a complaining room; a spooky graveyard (where it’s always midnight, even in the middle of the day); and a camping ground where you can have a nice, relaxing camping holiday. Andy’s been a bit stressed, so Terry has decided the perfect way for them to relax is to head up to their new camping ground level for a muchneeded holiday. But it turns out to be not quite as relaxing as Terry originally planned...
