will you let me know when we start a thread about physically disabled people, or how about homosexuals? It's just I'd need a bit of time to sharpen my pitchfork and get my white hood bleached gah!

Actually they are mother and daughter and they have special educational needs so bravo on a fabulous thread.

East Dulwich Garden Centre - possibly replaced with flats
Curmudgeon replied to TJS's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
22 flats on that site??? ::o ... really? I will almost bet there will be traffic and parking issues I suppose none of them are affordable housing either .. in fact I'm fairly certain I heard that there aren't any -

Get over yourself. > > Winter Green = Victor Meldrew fair. I'm not sad nor unfriendly I merely commented on the perceived need to take a 5 month old to see Santa (which may or may not have been the case) in a jokey fashion .. and 'precious firstborn' is a friendly joke in my circles reflecting the precious aspect that all first-time parents seem to adopt in the early months/years until they get more experienced or have more children I didn't realise that in other circles parents give up the ability to laugh at themselves? So I shan't get over myself, but maybe you should (parent of 2) -
Snubbed by the SNUB Winter Green Fair
Curmudgeon replied to grumpydad's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
well even though you think they do, pushchairs do not fit in everywhere unfortunately.. and they certainly did not fit in that tent with the 2 foot of space to walk through .. it was seriously crammed too tight with no thought being given to people trying to pass as others bothered to stop at stalls I went child-free and was frustrated by those maneouvering toddlers around if I'm honest I didn't notice a santa's grotto in the main tent .. but really? you were taking a 5 month old to see Santa? precious first born by any chance? >:D< -
dog kidnap attempt (November 29) Peckham Rye
Curmudgeon replied to Huggers's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
somebody tried to steal a staffordshire bull terrier? holy cow ... (checks Darwin for Peckham Rye entries) -
sounds like time to monitor how these prices take a dive over the next 100 or so days ... propertysnake (one of my favourites)

Don't get me wrong I love the independents and happily spend hours in (farmer) Palmers and their ilk But I find our independent shops that seem to be so lauded here blatantly over-priced I'd love an M&S and / or Waitrose to open here .. but wouldn't give up Iceland for one. I don't get the furore that occurs every time a 'chain' rears its head .. isn't that the nature of modern day business. I'd far prefer a chain than a baker selling bread for over ?4 tbh (I feel rather alone, and slightly nervous, in this unpopulated corner of East Dulwich thought though)

Did Foxtons choose a bad time to open? House prices (Lounged)
Curmudgeon replied to Domitianus's topic in The Lounge
If you are interested in how prices are falling in East Dulwich just check out propertysnake and put in SE22 ... I love looking at the overpriced housing in our area plummeting as the property stays on books for over 128 days -

Curmudgeon replied to monica's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
Please can I beg you to give us a choice over our SNUB bag? one with the winning Goodrich child's drawing on it and one with just an ED SNUB logo please? (said as a parent of 2 by the way) -

appeal to the East dulwich bag song writer
Curmudgeon replied to monica's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
I'd be interested in a plain, adult style bag with just ED SNUB (or SNUBed) on it ... I'm slightly put off by the "child's drawing" concept if I'm honest bah humbug curmudgeon
