There once was this guy who worked for the Railroad as a conductor. He was walking through the train, en route, collecting tickets from the passengers. He comes to car 12, booth 3. In it was a man. So, he asked him for his ticket: "Excuse me sir, do have your ticket?" "Oh, I am soooo sorry, I dropped it out the window by accident," he replied. "Sorry sir, can't have any passengers without tickets." He grabbed him by the scruff of the neck and threw him out of the train. Well, he landed on the tracks and was run over by the train. Naturally, the conductor was arrested and thrown in jail. He was convicted of murder before a jury of his peers, and sentenced to death by electrocution. The day of his execution came up, and he was asked what he would like for his last meal. He asks for a banana. They gave it to him, he ate it, received his last rites, and was escorted to the chair. The executioner strapped him in, hooked everything up. Last, he threw the big switch once, and nothing happened. So, he did it again, and nothing happened. Well, by law the guy was legally dead, so they had to release him. Oddly enough, the guy got a job on another railroad, as a conductor! One day, he was gathering tickets, and came to a booth with a little boy. "Young man, do you have your ticket?", asked the conductor. "A-a-a, I'm sorry, I ate it by mistake..", said the little boy. And.. the same thing happened -- the boy was thrown off the train and killed . The guy was arrested, sentenced to death by electrocution. It came to him last day. The death row guard asked him what he would like for his meal. He asked for banana again. He ate it, and a priest gave him last rites. He was escorted to the death chamber. This time, though, they were smart. They washed his hands to get rid of any banana slime, they washed up the chair. Next, they placed him the chair, and hooked him up. The switch-puller pulled the switch once, and nothing happened. The switch-puller pulled the switch twice, and nothing happened, not even a single hair raising on the guy's chest. Well, as the law says, they had to let him go... Even more amazingly, he got a job on yet another railroad. This time it was a rabbi. Same old stuff. Rabbi had no ticket (he forgot to buy it). Guy threw him off the train, rabbi died. Guy was arrested, convicted, sentenced to death by electrocution. When the guard asked him what he would like for a last meal, he asked for a banana. He ate it, received last rites, and was escorted to the chamber. However, this time the officials where going to get it right! They scrubbed his body with a brillo pad. They scrubbed the chair with steel wool. They tried the chair on a few other prisoners... Okay, they strapped him in, and threw the switch once, nothing happened. Threw the switch a second time, nothing happened. At this point the guy was legally dead, etc, etc. But, before the guy could leave, the executioner, extremely frustrated (he'd seen this same guy three times already). asked, "What is it with the banana!" The guy replied, "I just like bananas." So, the executioner screamed, "THEN HOW COME YOU DON'T DIE!!!!!" "I dunno," replied the guy, "I guess I'm just a bad conductor."

A rye member of staff followed a friend of mine round a pub, harrassing her for an alleged unpaid tab, in front of all of her friends. Now my friend EXLUSIVELY drinks Pinot Grigio and this was for some bottles of Red! Despite telling the despicably irritating woman this she continued to harrass and accuse! That's what I call rude! As such the Rye is boycotted by ratty forever (unless I am in particular need, nearby or my mates are going there! :p) I don't actually think this woman works there anymore! Maybe I should drop it!

How long have these 2 been around? I used to live on LL quite nearby and never knew about them then (5 years ago). I might pop down and have a look if the weather's nice this weekend! :)

It went fabuloso! A brilliant day! :) One of the best days of my life!! Hello Sean! Next time I see you I will say "Hi". It was great that they had only cordoned off half the area in the end as it was more intimate! Plough done us proud - food and atmosphere was fab! Thanks to all - especially Reuben! Party back at mine went on until 4am ish! Actually the party ended up in my neighbous house!

Reminds me of the "Bad Conductor" joke!

Oooh, we had the pub for my sons naming day all afternoon, so the band must have been on after us! I saw them setting up.

Do they live there? Perhaps you could burn them out, or even better - start a hate campaign!

Excellent - see ya there!!

Undie running in East Dulwich is as traditional as cheese rolling in Gloucester. That and the annual "flog a hoodie" event at Goose Green makes us very special. You'll love it here!

Is this not really a cleverly disguised thread about dogging? I hear Cox's walk is the place btw!

Some time ago now I worked in Shepherds Bush and lived next to the Magdala - my commute to work was 1 and a half hours. Hideous! I moved jobs and started working in Camberwell - commute was 10 mins walk - bliss! I now work in Lewisham. And it got me thinking - where do people work geographically. Have you deliberately tried to stay local to ED or does a long haul in the mornings and evenings not bother you? Would you move from ED to be nearer to work? Who works in the wierdest or furthest place??? I have a very pleasant 15 minutes drive to work and I love it! (the commute, not the job!)

Emotions run high sometimes. People act out very diffenrelt on a message board than they do in real life and it is easy to interpret people's opinions / views as something else when you cannot take in their non verbal signs too! Also, the forum is, sometimes, a very valuable resource which must attract people back! Personally I just slag people off then change my user name so no one knows it was me Among my other user names are: Keef Mockney Piers Dulwich Mum Louisa SeanMacGabhann Ladygooner ????s In fact I am the only person on this board and you all think I am different people! Errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrm???????
