Sorry, edited as crossed post. Happy to retweet but how do we find the tweets please?

Yesterday there was a notice on the machine saying that it was faulty, but also on no account to key in your pin number, which I found a bit odd.

I remember when the Drum first opened, it was before the smoking ban. It was unbearable inside, because there was such a lot of smoke in such a small space - well, it was unbearable to an ex-smoker!

How much does it cost to go up there, and when is it open? Anyone know?

Grayson Perry is a great artist AND he happens to enjoy dressing as a woman/girl sometimes. Presumably the various aspects of the personality of any artist will inform their art, whether it's cross dressing or anything else. Louis Killen, who you won't have heard of, is a fantastic singer who only very recently has publicly come out - in his seventies - as having an alter ego, Louisa Killen. He has - extremely bravely in my opinion in view of comments of people like yourself - appeared on stage in women's clothes. Are you suggesting that if he had done this at an earlier age it would somehow have given him an advantage in getting bookings/record contracts? I think not. His image was of a bearded, masculine, deep-voiced guy who sang songs about mining, the sea and stuff. Cross-dressing is hardly going to turn crap art into great art. And there are always going to be some people who think some art is crap. I think much of what Damien Hirst has done is crap, but that doesn't seem to have held him back :))

Thanks for this, I will go to his show, I saw the first episode of the television series and I thought it was brilliant. Loved what he did and looking forward to the other two. ETA: Parkdrive, your post is just pathetic. Are you one of those people who think everybody should be just the same as you? Thank Christ they aren't.

The Goose is Out people, and the crowd who > do the open air cinema in the Dulwich park in the > summer, might have some good knowledge on the > matter! xxxxxxx We certainly know how not to start a Get Rich Quick scheme :)) We'd be delighted to see an alternative venue open in or near East Dulwich though - we have been unable to find anything suitable to replace The Ivy House, which was a fantastic space and size for our "medium sized audience" gigs. That's medium sized in numbers, not in height or girth, obviously, which for us is around 100 people. So a multi-use space would be great. But there was a thread on here a while back suggesting an Arts Centre type place which could incorporate a space suitable for music gigs/cinema/art exhibitions etc, and cold water was thrown at it from all directions as I recall (though my memory is crap so I may be recalling wrongly). Sue (Half of The Goose Is Out!) ETA: We'd be very happy to discuss possibilities with the OP or indeed with anyone else re a new local multi-use space, but we'd have no capital to put into it. We also need somewhere licensed to sell alcohol.

Been on the ale, Flappers? :))

Sorry to hear this too, and really very sorry that nobody came to help. Did anybody even call the police? You must be very shaken up, hope you're both OK.

jumpinjackflash Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- Madness, with the > visuals on Buckingham Palace, were brilliant.

I didn't see all of it but from what I did see I thought the music was pretty mediocre and the choice of artists/songs very odd. The royal family looked quite ill at ease at the end mingling with the musicians I thought.

Have you tried googling for reviews of it?

What you almost certainly saw was a grey squirrel with reddish fur, as sometimes happens. Sorry to disappoint you :) See the East Dulwich Nature Watch thread :)

I just wondered if anyone else has seen a > red squirrel in the local area as I presume that > if there was one there must be more ! xxxxxx This has already been discussed on this thread, and links to pictures posted. Grey squirrels sometimes appear to be red. There is about a zillionth to one chance of the one you saw having been a true red squirrel of the tufty-eared variety.

Has anybody contacted Orange to find out what the problem may be?

Neither Adventure Bar nor Boho Bar was open in 2005. ETA: I think!

I had all my window boxes nicked a couple of years back, and now chain the replacements down :-S I was in as well when it happened. Was in the back garden, heard a scraping noise and thought nothing of it. The police said a load of people had had theirs stolen around the same time. It was just before Mother's Day. Bastards.
