  1. The Goose Is Out! has gigs at DHFC and Upstairs at The Mag, and a singaround at the CPT. We also run some or all of the music at various local festivals and street parties. We have nothing to do with the Victoria Inn or the Actress, so I have no idea what you are intending to imply by your comment, which I take exception to. The Actress is one of my locals, I live round the corner from it, I like it and I say so on forum threads - is that some kind of crime? To the best of my knowledge, they don't even have live music there or at any of the other pubs owned by the same people! (Edited to add: We used to have gigs at the EDT, who asked us there originally and then kicked us out when they turned the upstairs into a short-lived Private Members Club. However this is not run by the same people, and in any case I have certainly not bigged up the EDT on the forum given the way they treated us at the time.) My suggestion that it was too hot in the summer to have the shutters (not the windows, I believe) closed at our gigs was based on fact. If you ask anybody who was at our Eliza Carthy gig on 2 July last year they will tell you that people were practically fainting with heat despite, if I recall correctly, trying both opening all the windows and also trying the air conditioning. I also, if memory serves, said that the venue with the shutters down resembled the inside of an airraid shelter. I have no recollection of saying that some sort of exception should be made in our case, but if you can find a statement that I did, I am of course happy to admit that my memory is crap.
  2. Didn't realise Peter Stringfellow was quite that old :))

What on earth are you talking about? When have I ever suggested our gigs should be some kind of special case? ETA: I suggested you come and say hello at our stage at the Aquarius Festival - which you didn't - how is that "having a grudge against you"??? ETA: The trouble is, DJKQ, you may sometimes make some good points, but when you post inaccurate information, unfortunately it throws doubt on the veracity of the rest of what you post.
  4. And you, DJKQ, are intimately familiar with all the details of the "one thing after another" (what?) and "recent trajic (sic) events" are you? ETA: And yet again, you choose to ignore my actual point (ie he did not deliberately mislead).

If you are referring to me, Nick did not "deliberately mislead" me. He made a genuine mistake about what was covered by the wording when the licence application was made, and genuinely thought that he had applied for, and got, a late licence. As soon as it was brought to his attention that in fact he had not, he immediately took steps to rectify things. ETA: I think you owe him an apology in view of the tone and content of your post.
  6. There is a meeting finder on their website, easily enough found by googling :)
  7. http://www.urban75.net/vbulletin/archive/index.php/t-236439.html Kingswood Estate doesn't appear to be in East Dulwich ..... Unless the OP on the above link got the postcode wrong ...
  8. So are some of the people who posted a load of unwarranted assumptions on this thread now going to apologise?

Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > ..or Sue she's up for it. > > xxxxxxx Don't know what gave you that impression :)) If someone in my road was causing that sort of noise and aggro in the early hours, whether in a van or a house, and after a while it was still continuing, I'd call Southwark Noise Control - as suggested in my earlier post.
  10. If you're being kept awake by noise, why not phone Southwark Noise Control - that's what they are there for. I am sometimes disturbed whilst trying to sit quietly in my garden by loud people with posh-ish accents in their nearby gardens who appear not to be able to speak below a shout. Their children also appear not to be able to speak below a shout. Maybe that's OK though because they and their loud-voiced friends don't live in a van.
  11. Yes, two roads away - and worryingly close to mine :))

A real tragedy. xxxxxx Going by this, I don't think any of "us lot" have actually misunderstood you. It's quite clear where you're coming from. Unfortunately. Thank God you're not a neighbour of mine. Why do you describe someone as having a "fake existence" just because they choose to live a different way to you? You have no idea what these people's circumstances are, in any case.
  13. Bit concerned that money taken at the existing shop doesn't seem to go into the till, and they asked for the exact money from both me and my OH today. Is the till broken? It appeared to be turned on. At the Mind shop, you get a receipt for items bought.
  14. No Royal Wedding Street Party in East Dulwich then? Hurrah :)) Roll on the Crystal Palace Road Big Lunch Street Party! 5 June, People! :)-D

    Question.

    There's a funfair on in Crystal Palace Park soon, I think it starts 2 April. Just passed a notice for it today. I remember Battersea Fun Fair. They had a rotor where you stuck to the wall whilst what seemed when I was young a very long way above the ground, and an entertaining mynah bird where you whistled the first part of a tune and it completed it. I also remember feeling extremely ill after going on something which went round in several directions at once (that's not quite right but you know what I mean), completely wrecked my day out with school friends :))
  16. I've posted late stuff at Nine Elms, but it was a while ago so the times may have changed. KK, you can't guarantee next day delivery unless you send something RMSD (special delivery), can you? Was Mount Pleasant actually able to take your item personally? Interested to know for future reference!
  17. Blimey. They certainly have a nerve, considering what they already charge the landlord. And in my experience do very little for their money.
  18. So the agents basically take money from two sets of people for letting one house (6)
  19. I was always under the impression that tenants didn't have to pay fees, only the landlord, has the law changed or have I been labouring under a misapprehension all these years?
  20. RSPB out on Lordship Lane today, but in my haste to tell them I couldn't afford to join them, I completely forgot about the owl. Maybe if someone sees this and passes them they could mention it?
  21. Perigee full moon tonight folks, first for eighteen years, and a clear night. Dawson heights anyone?
  22. Never knew you were an old (in the nicest possible way) hippie, civilservant :)) That takes me back :) ETA Sorry admin, please don't lounge this, I promise to go back to the owl discussion now .....
