Thanks for alleviating my skeptisism/confusion/suspicion around W**F's 'lottery'... I will now partake and donate! :)

Just don't scrub too hard or you'll risk removing the paint as well!

Apparently... George has already settled into prison and is making lots of friends. He's even written a new song about his cell mate, which he hopes will be his next single. The track?s called ?Hairless Fister?.

The Actress looks most impressive from the exterior, and I'm very much looking forward to sampling a pint of real ale in ED's latest & greatest eating/drinking/socialising establishment.

Has anyone tried the Lindt 'Sea Salt' dark chocolate? If not, I suggest you give it a go...

Thanks Dogger. Granted, 'downtown' probably isn't the fairest description of East Dulwich, though in the context of comparing it to the relatively narcoleptic Village, it was meant as a compliment. Down with those hairs!

I now recall reading about it last year in the Metro. So it's back for a 2nd season. I will certainly make the effort to check it out - thanks!

Hmm... Have walked past the AB a few times though have never been tempted. Should I be?

Fridays for the spontaneous (and these days very occasional) all-nighter as you have the whole weekend to recover. Saturday for the pre-planned event, e.g. dinner party at home/friends/restaurant

Thanks peeps. Keep 'em coming!! citizenED - where/what is Inside 72??

Evening fellow SE22ers. The wife & I are moving from D'Village into downtown East Dulwich next weekend and are very much looking forward to being in the mix of it. Where are the best & coolest places to eat, drink, chill, party, etc etc??
