Do you know if he is a local?

Good God!! He must be 40-odd years old!! Not that being a pissed up student aged 19 would be an excuse, but you would think that someone of his age was beyond wild childish pranks by now.

To paraphrase the words of Samuel L Jackson: "That is some repugnant shit"

Thank you for a fine evening's entertainment at the Emirates Stadium last night my north London cousins. I look forward to visiting again and take the mickey some more in the near future.

It is a question that certainly needed asking. Not sure if it is so many posts per page despite their length or whether it depends on how long each individual post is. hmmmm.....

I can't be bothered to scroll through all the posts, but there is a chap that always gives rather long, wordy and (if I may say so) slightly pompous posts. Just one post from him should take us over the ghastly 49 page plateau.

I don't think you are taking the subject with the gravitas as it deserves. Hopefully this one is the one that takes it to 50.

Very true. Can understand a Waitrose possibly making a more dramatic impact.

I have obviously been out of the area too long, I had forgotten about the M&S on Walworth Road. So why on earth would someone travel to Beckenham if there is a two stores far closer? 3 including Lewisham.

Some pretty scathing remarks there. I hope November's issue arrives in good time for bonefire night.

At least 'Absolutely Dulwich' is good for at least one thing and that is getting to find out if we have famous neighbours. I've been rehearsing what I am going to say to Olivia Coleman when I eventually bump into her for weeks.

Fair comment.

Ron70 Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Maybe you should leave a notice on your front door > saying "no free post thankyou" or similar? I have considered that. However, I am put off by the aesthetic of having such a note on my door. Plus I believe it sets an unfriendly first impression. Not to mention that *some* unsolicited post is quite handy, i.e 'local electrician' etc. First world problems eh?!

You're having a laugh! It is a complete waste of paper. I get enough rubbish dropped through my door as it is.

Not sure who is responsible for the 'Absolutely Dulwich' freebie magazine but I only hope their sponsors are paying them well. Stylish looking? Asolutely, yes it is. Intelligent? er no it isn't. Elegant? hmmm..it is possibly, but it is filled with absolute dreck. Will 'Absolutely Dulwich' end up in my recycling bin unread? Absolutely.

So basically the Home Office is telling people to use their common sense. Sadly that appears to be in short supply.

Evening all.

But people like me that are late to the party miss out. ho hum. Can soneone let me know next time someone gets knocked off their bike through their own rank stupidity please?
