If you don't want to mix with the riff-raff :-S you can take the next road on the right instead, but I do it on my own every Goose night at Hoopers with no problem, last time in the dark :-S Edited to say: People who live on council estates don't bite, you know.

Walk up to East Dulwich Station, cross the road, walk a little way up Dog Kennel Hill, turn right through the estate, right at the top, left into Ivanhoe Road - it's a five to ten minute walk from Goose Green :)

We were there last night, the Doom Bar was absolutely fine - delicious in fact :)

I'm a council tax payer too and I would be delighted for council money to be spent (not "wasted") on making things I have to look at locally aesthetically pleasing - I agree they're to some extent subjective, but not "entirely" subjective, surely? That fence across Goose Green makes me wince every time I look at it, never mind the practicalities :)

Yeh but presumably cheaper from the author :))

Including having viewing galleries over sorting offices, etc etc No idea if this still happens, but I'd be suprised if it didn't. Peckhamdoll, you can hardly blame someone employed by Royal Mail for slagging off casuals working out of the same office, suggest you complain to the central Customer Service Department rather than the sorting office itself :)

If you've only eaten at the Mirash, it might be good to try some of the others recommended on this thread at least once in a while, as in my experience it's one of the less good places in ED for Indian food.

Hey that's a great book, I was looking at it recently, it's in the Tate Modern Shop. Now I've given you a plug, can I have a discount? :))

Restraining myself from mentioning Mick and Montmorency (sp?), and I bet I am one of the few forumites ever to have seen it (tiny black and white tellies? Bring 'em back!), I will just say how sad I would be if this building was demolished, I love it, and that pale imitation of it which has been built behind it is just a joke :-S

Hi If you want to sing at the Goose, can you let us have a demo CD or else a link to some folk tracks online, and we'll have a listen :) If we thought it was Goose-friendly, we'd probably ask you to do an unpaid support slot at DHFC before booking you for Hoopers. Have a look at our website to get a feel for the kind of stuff we do. You could also try John and Elaine at the Dream Machine, next to Palmerstons, who put on live music there and sometimes elsewhere. :)

But thanks for the thought, we do always feel for the musicians (and those who want to listen to them) when there are people there carrying on loud conversations, but hey, it's a pub, there's nothing we can do about it :-S

Didn't they also say that maybe Andrew Sachs would die when he heard what they were saying? Or was that a lie made up by the press? Because when I read that I thought it was worse than the stuff about the granddaughter.

Does the 12 nightbus have a different route to the 12 daybus? Or has my sense of distance gone the same way as my eyesight with age? :)

You are > implying that I don't know what I'm talking about. xxxxx Wasn't my intention to be patronising, just rather surprised anybody who liked Indian food could not rate Ganapati, sorry if I offended you :-$

I never thought much about all this until 9/11 and its aftermath. That was the first time in my life I ever went to the Cenotaph on Armistice Day and realised what all those people had been fighting for.
