Sue

I like the CPT too, though I liked it better when they still had Adnams Broadside instead of just the bitter, which is just not the same :)

Sorry posted twice by mistake :-$

DHFC has a largish room and a bar which will stay open as long as you want, 3.30am has been about our latest. Bar prices are lower than the pubs round ED. There's also a full sound system there and you will probably get the room for free. You need to do some work (lighting etc) to change the vibe for your evening, but it can be done! It's next to Sainsbury's on Dog Kennel Hill - everyone said no-one would come up there because it wasn't on the main drag, but we've had around 250 people at some of our Goose gigs there. Some of the other places people have suggested may be too small for what you're after? The person to speak to is Davide at [email protected]. Good luck wherever you end up! Great to see others bringing music to the area! Edited to say: I believe the Constitutional Hall will charge you both for the venue and the bar, plus only had Monday nights available last time we enquired, admittedly last year. Edited again to say: The Ivy House is a great space, but is a bloody long haul from East Dulwich, at least the bit I live in, and public transport to it is scarce. However I'm sure they would welcome you with open arms!!

Unless it's heated by solar panels, I rest my case :))

There always seems to be a lot of these generalisations floating around the forum.

And they do still do takeaways, don't they?

Wonderful rainforests, beaches, amazing wildlife, outback full of wildflowers after rain, Barrier Reef, King's Canyon, helpful bus drivers and shop assistants, etc etc etc.. "Lacking personality"? It's a country ffs, not a person! I'd love to go back.

Of course you don't say how old you are in real life usually as soon as you meet someone, but we're talking here about a different situation, aren't we? And as it 'appens I do prefer men I meet in a potential dating situation in "real life" to know my age quite soon in case they want to flee :)) Luckily my OH didn't give a s**t :))

Can someone describe for me the difference between fox poo and dog poo, as maybe I have been unfairly blaming the owner of a small dog in my road for crapping on my path :)) Erm, the dog that is, not the owner obviously :))

YES! A Lakeland shop in ED would be fab, I have to visit a friend in Tunbridge Wells to get my Lakeland fix :))

I've been in there. I found it weird but interesting :)
