If you are on the app, click on "more" (on the right of the green strip at the bottom of this page). Then click on FAQ. The page on the screenshot below comes up. Then click on "How can I contact the forum admin". Then click on the link which comes up (the "contact us page") There might be a quicker way, but that should work.

It's terrible behaviour. One consolation could be to be thankful you aren't them.

It might well be working - you don't know how loud it might have been without it!

You can tell red kites by their forked tails. Lots above the M40 on the way to Oxford.

Sorry to be thick, but can you explain the connections between "foreign money", politics, your paragraph starting "most people in the village" and Belair House? I honestly don't understand what point you are making.

Really sorry, I should have messaged you privately, I thought I had. Apologies.

I can't see it will ever be finally resolved, unfortunately. Although the local problems were made much worse due to the move of the Sylvester Road delivery office to Peckham, Royal Mail has had issues ever since it was privatised. Whenever the local MP gets involved, things get a bit better temporarily, then they just deteriorate again. I hope I'm wrong, but there are similar postal delivery issues all over the country. I think there are currently discussions ongoing to change the delivery requirements which Royal Mail is supposed to adhere to for first and second class post. Silly question, but are you actually expecting letters? I haven't had any post for ages either, but I'm not expecting any! Much stuff these days is done by email or on apps. The East Dulwich delivery office is in Peckham, not West Dulwich?

Apparently this forum is " brimming with disgust and outrage" 🤣 I thought that was The Telegraph 🤣

Is it necessary to book at Janda on a weekday evening?

I took it to mean that he was going to present all sides of the argument (for want of a better term) rather than just giving his own opinion. I didn't take it to mean that he was calling "his own views" balanced.

I just did this survey. There are a number of problems with it. For example, in at least two questions you have an option "other, please specify" but there is no way to specify what the "other" is. Also, you have several questions where if you have nothing appropriate to answer, you get a statement "this is a required question", or words to that effect, so you have to put in something like "nothing" in order to move on. Can I suggest that this is likely to confuse people so they just give up half way through? Maybe you should test it out on a few people before going "live" with it?

What is he trying to "sell"? Or "do"?

That's terrible. Tooting Bec lido used to be nice, but I haven't been there for decades so no idea what it's like now! But reasonably easy to get to from East Dulwich.

You must be a very delicate flower if language like that upsets you 🙄

What is "moral and pastoral theology"?

I was quite bemused as to why the leaves on my black bamboo were apparently dying and it had weird things apparently growing on it. Then I came across this: https://inspectaslr.co.uk/black-bamboo-flowering-a-rare-worldwide-phenomenon-spotted-by-inspectas/ I was fond of my bamboo, which has grown in my garden for years, and the sparrows liked to perch and swing on it, too. Has anyone else locally had this happen? Presumably anybody with a black bamboo. Looking on the bright side, I will be left with a lot of useful bean poles.

Don't tempt me. I like barking. I'm good at it. I score points if the dog I'm barking at looks round. I don't need a dog mask to do it though. But I might get thrown out of the pub 🤣

I think all these stupid people should be forcibly moved to America. They would like it there. They would probably have voted for Trump.

What, a Brie tasting? I'd rather have an animal mask than have to eat Brie 🤮

Sounds like you've had some interesting evenings 🤣

SIXTEEN WEEKS? At all three of those locations? All at once? Or a bit at a time, presumably, as the roads are connected? What on earth are they doing that is going to take sixteen weeks? 😮😮😮

Sorry Mal, the Palmerston is already booked 🤣

You would have to speak to Rob, the manager, and see what he says (and if the upstairs room is free on the nights you want, whether it's suitable for you.) Other than that I can't advise, except that he asks that everyone attending buys at least one drink during the evening, which seems completely fair! I wouldn't have thought the room would be big enough, but you could try. The Lordship and The Palmerston also have upstairs rooms, but I don't know if they'd use them for orchestra practice. Also, how about East Dulwich Community Centre in Darrell Road? That has a big sized space which might be more suitable for you. https://eastdulwichcommunitycentre.org.uk/ Your orchestra looks fantastic 🤩

Yes, I was bemused to see that notice in Barry Road. It seemed a strange place to be having a drop off point.
