I'm all for a benevolent dictatorship. As long as I am boss. I also agree with P J O'Rourke who wrote along the lines of capitalism having benefited the most people most of the time.

Just rode around London on the bike and everywhere are people out eating and drinking and playing and singing and cycling and skating and being with other people and lying down and laughing and being happy. Can't they read all the DO NOT HAVE FUN / DO NOT DO ANYTHING THAT MAY MAKE YOU HAPPY / DO NOT USE COMMON SENSE signs all over the place? I think they should do something about this and I am writing to my Councillor and MP today. This sort of thing should stop.

Irish Festival in the park?

Oh FFS Camberwell's not IN East Dulwich. It's not Southwark Forum, it's East Dulwich Forum. What are you like!

Just got photos. Hope you like. English lesson it come along fine innit.

You are such a grumpy so and so aren't you. I am a lazy so and so, and so let the Moderator move it for me.

We're going to the Sculpture show at top of Rye Lane Car Park tonight to see the sun set, and walk past the Rye on our way. May pop in for a drink and meet a couple of you...

I've just noticed the idea for this meet clashes with the EDF meet at Rye Hotel. We shall walk past you on our way to the Sculpture Gallery anyway. Have fun!

I think the poor the uneducated (not through their own faults), the uneducatable* and the sick will always suffer under a government that is 'small'. *My own made up word!

Watch the sun set from the roof. Get lift to the toppest floor that the lift takes you to, then climb the rest, and enjoy the sculptures and the sunset. Well, we're going anyway, see you there.

He sounds like one of them Humanists to me! Quite right too!

Since we do not know all the facts of this case, ie. for example whether there were bars/gates in use preventing fire crews from reaching people/flats, or what was going on, should we wait till we do know the facts? Why immediately blame the Council when we don't know if it was someone smoking in bed, or something. We just don't know yet. (Do we?)

Josh, did you read my post? No, seriously, did you? Read it, read it again, and the others', they make sense. Honest they do.

But it's not ABOUT ED. Oh Josh come on, you can do better, you know it.

Josh, consider the titles of the sections. They're clear. GENERAL ED ISSUES AND GOSSIP by its very title implies that anything to do with something happening in, say, Camberwell, would not be an appropriate place. See where we're going? As I wrote after your post on the other thread, the Camberwell fire thread is appropriately placed, as it is in The LOUNGE, ie, other NON East Dulwich things that we are interesting in discussing. Go on, you can get with it, I know you can. Do try and relax - and have fun, and do remember that to the people in East Dulwich whose cats are missing or have died, they MATTER. This is a community. Welcome and play nice!

What do you mean what is it doing in the lounge? It's not ED specific but we care so we're talking about it in the appropriate place in the forum. Such a sad sad thing to happen and indeed my thoughts go to the friends and families.

I think Murray will lose, Roddick doesn't make the same amount of mistakes. Murray keeps hitting the net!

Back to the original first post, I bet had you stood and took a photo of everyone being happy and content you'd have been arrested too. Pahhh.

Edited since I just read the topic it referred to. Surely the plonk puffing himself up is the new Sainsburys!

It's a good idea but might attract lots of different things like the incident of the missing cat or the incident of the knocked over motorcycle or the incident of the road rage witness or the incident of stolen plants in the park or the incident of the other missing cat - would that be alright?

Oooh, may I 'come out' and admit I quite like those, AND Battenburg cakes. AND home made prawn cocktail. I am such a seventies child. It'll be Warninks Advocaat next.

LOVED Strawbery Mivvis. These days it's all bloody Magnums.

Back to topic - I can do great lyrics. But I need the music first or at least some idea of the music so I can write to it.

Ohhh it terrifies me seeing bikers (and let's not start with cyclists) riding without protective gloves and footwear and so on. Yet I ride in jeans! My jacket is a summer jacket, with armour at elbows and back but with tiny holes all through which is lovely when you're breezing through. And I have a half face helmet indeed... However, if you ARE unlucky and have an accident make sure you have it when I am nearby or someone like me who has just completed a First on Street Scene First Aid course.... And I have a First Aid bag on the bike too. Back to topic... Yes when the lights are in our favour I have done Peckham Rye to Liverpool Street in about 20 mins. This afternoon I have to go to Croydon :( I may go via Brighton :)

Are you the arse who writes those words on paper stuck on shop windows like Tina's on Grove Vale?
