Today, I learnt that there is at least one cult in East Dulwich, maybe more


LowLander has kindly identified one for us

"EDIBA are like a cult; everyone draws around them and denies their existence, yet at the same time promotes them. "


In his thread https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?5,2026614


I'm excited and scared at the same time, do the cult members dance and chant in the nip in Dulwich Park ? Or is that witches ?


Do they wear pillow cases on their heads and burn effigies of council leaders ? Or is that reserved for 5th November ?


How do you join?


Most of all are there other cults out there ? Maybe the Troll Cult is one !


Who knows anything about these "cults" because they are news to me?


I have to admit I had to careful check when I entered "cult" as I could have so easily misspent it 🤓

When I first read that quote, I thought it was more of a definition for a secret society (and I was tempted to post that!), however, I decided it best not to give anyone any ideas.


I wouldn't want The Grand Master to get involved...

      Food poisoning at Dugard & Daughters - twice!

      By Sue · Posted

      If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?

      Food poisoning at Dugard & Daughters - twice!

      By theweekend · Posted

      I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy.  We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing.

      Charter East Dulwich school

      By McMurphy · Posted

      interesting read.  We're thinking about the same things for our kids in primary school as well. One thing I don't understand about Charter ED is whether they stream / set kids based on ability.  I got the impression from an open evening that it is done a little as possible. All i could find on-line was this undated letter - https://www.chartereastdulwich.org.uk/_site/data/files/users/18/documents/9473A8A3547CCCD39DBC4A55CA1678DC.pdf?pid=167 For the most part, we believe in mixed ability teaching and do not stream in Year 7 or Year 8. The only exceptions to this are that we have a small nurture class for Maths. This is a provision for students who scored lower than 85 in their SATS exams and is designed to support them to acquire the skills to access the learning in mainstream class. We do not have nurture classes for any other subjects. We take a more streamed - though not a setted - approach in Maths and Science from Year 9 onwards. though unsure if this is still accurate reflection of policy, and unsure of difference between streaming and setting.
