Must be the same woman who was in the queue behind me at llyods at 9am one morning I was the only customer besides her and she impatiently asked the teller to open another window, the teller said use the self service if you're in such a hurry. Sense of entitlement or what !
  2. Yes the British Heart Foundation collect but at a price I paid ?30 about six years ago, but better that than pay for a perfectly good sofa to go to the dump
  3. The one in rye lane is ok Nevins Or was a few years ago. Morrisons meat is pretty good too
  4. I was brought up on a very narrow street within a radius of 36 pubs, single glazed sash windows which had to be left open in summer, lots of noise and merriment during the summer months. Can only remember my sleep being disturbed about twice in the 18 years I lived there due to fights directly outside my bedroom window. Some years ago I nearly bought a flat opposite the Herne before it's reincarnation. The reason I chose not to was one can never anticipate if a pub will get better or worse noise for noise levels. I wish I had bought that flat now. But if you buy near a pub I really don't think that you can complain that there is associated noise. I also lived near the CPT for a long time and loved it for the quiz but the rest of the week they weren't getting the customers in and ultimately a business has to make a profit. I think the great exhibition has been one of the best restorations of a pub locally. Years ago the Uplands now the Actress was a bikers pub and many of the long term residents of East Dulwich will remember that according to friend who grew up in the area there was a lot of noise. I think what I'm trying to say is you get used to noise and children will sleep through anything once they're used to it.
  5. Thanks for all the great suggestions, they all look fab but all booked up, but next year will plan a bit better and go somewhere great.

  11. Totally agree with LizR , don't exactly understand what was meant by previous comment "any Irish references have to go" As an Irish person it makes me very unlikely to want to drink there.
  12. m&m fairy what is your vendetta whatever it is it's not coming across as very pleasant, and not doing your own business any favours
  13. First posted to East Dulwich section but moved to what's on but I know there are some fans out there, he's doing impro at the hob tonight
  14. Faffy I meant but think others understood
  15. The Honor Oak pub apparently room downstairs happy to have parties at a fee
  16. Really really sorry to hear this thinking of the family at this sad time.
  17. Have done it a few times in the last few months, even during rush hour on Friday last with really large suitcase reall simple the worst bit is the steps at honor oak but can be avoided by getting train to forest hill instead where there is a lift. Takes about 25 minutes all in all and at ?1.80 can't complain. Honor Oak -Canada WAter -Canada WAter jubilee line Canning Town -Canning town DLR City airport a lot less daffy then it sounds
  18. Thanks for that been and seen
