NTV, I believe is the term on here isn't it. Yes, the Vale is a horrible soulless place but I'm going to agree with Louisa for a change and say get rid of that revolting Harvester and restore the Grove Tavern to it's former glory.

*Pops head in the door...aah somewhere where I can still have a fag and a drink at the same time without getting my collar felt. Marvellous! Orders a couple of Zombies, hands one to Keef. Anyone mind if I skin up?*

That's easy for you to say Keef.

The way things are going, soon you won't be able to smoke in your own house. The cops will be outside with a loudhailer "Come out with your cigarettes above your head."

I'm dying for cigarette.

Aah Keef, you can have a slurp of my Zombie any time but the only sensible time to leave the pub is closing time. Rules is rules.

Tillie, I am appalled you forgot to mention that I was also in TBC...and drinking with you too...met Mark who said "hello" and spotted the charming and handsome devil that is F & B. In fact I went two nights in a row and got absolutely hammered on each occasion...in fact I've been pretty damned hammered all weekend. I feel like death today. I'm a Zombie! Must give my liver, kidneys and pancreas a well earned rest this week before the weekend comes and do it all again.:)-D

Oh whoopee do and whey hey hey!

Just remembered - penny up the wall, also played cards, Black Jack mostly.

Can't remember chanting anything during British Bulldog, mind you it's a long time since a played that. But whenever a fight erupted, which was frequently it was "Bundle."

Was reading a book on Peter Cook recently so dug out some old Derek & Clive. Still very very funny when you're smashed after a late night out on the juice. Also, The Faces for similar reasons. I have a mate who whenever he gets pissed has a war cry of "Put the Faces on FFS."

Who is Tessa?

Two drummers walk past a bar... Hey! Come on, it could happen.

Q: What do you call a pretty girl on a drummer's arm? A: A tattoo.

British Bulldog, yeah I remember that one and rounders too but I played football. I was obsessed with football, wanted to be a footballer and nearly was until I discovered sex and drugs and rock & roll. Used to go to school early play football until school started, then every break time and then after school until it got dark. Happy days.

Slips quietly out of Quiet Room, thinks my work here is done.

Why bother...it was two years ago FFS.

Yeah! A complete contrast in styles but we'll see if it happens and I hope it does.

Good afternoon, just popped in for a group hug and little drinkypoo and you can put those smelly socks away because I've some of the finest Armagnac known to mankind. Anyone want a slurp?

Err..it's the Half Moon. When I went there as a youngster it was the Brixton & District Boxing Club that was run upstairs above the pub. Never been fitter than in those days. Anyway, all ages can go. I friend of mine still does to keep in shape and indeed, yes it is run by the McKenzie brothers Duke and Clinton.

Stay as long as you like. You're most welcome. I think the whole idea of this thread is very silly indeed. It encourages snobbery and division. Now..group hug everyone.

Move back to Scotland dear? No dear, you do dear, certainly not dear. Your patronage is most valuable to everyone in East Dulwich and how very dare anyone who says it isn't.

I am very much so. Used to box above the Half Moon in Herne Hill when I was lad but unfortunately I missed it. Terrific result for Hatton. Let's hope he gets to bash up Floyd Mayweather next.

Which is a bit silly as we're all in it together maaan!

Starts singing in a drunken Elvis sort of way "Blue Moon, you saw me standing alone." Err, sorry must be the weather of something. But, yes you're right it has been a bit mad the last couple of days.
