I did one of those coach to Spain things in 96. Bloody horrible journey! Some 12 years ago I went to a posh charity do at a swanky nightclub on Oxford Street, that my friend's sister was running. After necking quite a lot of free booze I left at about 10 because it was a school night and I was actually planning to get to work at a reasonable hour the next day (which suggests something important must have been going on). Left the club and saw a routemaster 12 to Dulwich Plough. Hurrah thought I as I jumped on the back at the traffic lights. I then fell asleep safe in the knowledge that the bus would be stopping at the plough. I woke up a couple of hours later in Notting Hill. I got another bus back to Oxford Street and paid some dodgey bloke ?30 to take me home in his "cab". Next day I told my mate about it, and he told me his sister had put him in a cab a few minutes after I'd left and he'd been home by 11.

Peckham & Pineapple.

Bornagain, terribly sorry if I'm being childlike discussing a potential name. I hadn't realised that this 27 page long thread which doesn't mention fraud in the title was now specifically for fraud discussion. Although discussing it is completely pointless when you don't know the ins and outs. It's about as useful as a load of internet arriors in cosy London homes "sorting our" the Israel situation.

Dear God, I thought the tea cake thing was a joke.

I thought The Gaurd was fecking great! Last night I watched "Grudge Match" which is a comedy with sylvester stallone and Robert DeNiro as 2 retired boxers that come out of retirement for one last fight. Nothing original about it, lots of cliches, but who cares, it was fun.

"Whatever the beliefs of the various neighbouring countries, Israel is behaving abominably." Yeah, no one is saying they're not going way OTT. "You cannot watch the footage, count the victims on all sides, see the disparity in weapons and say they are all as bad as each other" Yes you can, it's just one party has the biggest guns.

Nah doesn't really matter, but still interesting to me. I asked my wife what she thought of when I said Dulwich and she said the library/plough, and that the village is the village and ED is more the Goose Green end of Lordship Lane. Everyone has their own ideas I guess. I don't really think of anything on the hospital side as East Dulwich (even though it is) it's just perspective.

The fact she was with her baby is the bit I find it hard to get my head around. But then again, lots of us will have a few drinks after the kids are asleep, and it's not like she ws planning to die. Anyway, feeling sorry for her is pointless now so sympathies for those left behind are more apt. Must have been horrible for her husband having to tell the inquest all that stuff.

Yep, that.

So where is Dulwich? I'd have thought that Dulwich is ED, WD and DV all together.

Totally agree about the pointless Z List sleb bit, and of course she screwed up, but I wonder about her state of mind and mental health. I think it's sad whichever way it's looked at.

I fancied Mel about 18 years ago if that counts.

That's why I chose 77, but interesting to hear you say that that in itself was also a throwback.

Don't get me wrong, I like the idea of get togethers and street parties, it's the effort to harp back to 1977 and recreate everything that was dismissed as naff years ago. Plus on a personal level I find mingling / talking to people I don't know exceedingly painful so I'd be the miserable git that hid indoors.

The fag one was almost a carbon copy of the ponce one. Coincidence?

And I was never made to feel UNwelcome by any mums, just came, sang the songs, went home. Daughter LOVED it which was the whole point really.

Yeah there are some nice facebook pages / groups of (usually younger) people from both sides trying to promote peace and respect. Unfortunately for every one of those there are 10 pages of utter shit from dick heads.

Which one were you after? I liked when she had a go at TedMax for using the word poncey, claiming that he was a homophobe. (that was in the fois gras thread).
