Northlondoner certainly has no chips on any shoulder. Do you watch constant reruns of Love Thy Neighbour? I thought ?chip on the shoulder? went out with bell bottoms & flares. I hate that term, it?s only ever used by racists or the magnificently ignorant. Which are you?

Wednesday night book club - the Clockhouse at 7.30 to 8.00
Chick replied to Chick's topic in What's on in East Dulwich
Hi, Just for information. We are a small book group who meet in the Clockhouse in general every second Wednesday of the month. We are very informal & friendly and just like to read books and drink beer or wine. We also do other things outside the book group. We once went to the following: an exhibition of Indian Mogul art dating from 1500 to today, a surveillance & photography exhibition at the Tate Modern and a trip with an architect to the new Jubilee line stations, all designed by different architects and all wonderful structures. It wasn?t train spotting I promise. Some of us go in for astronomy & ale when conditions are right. We always have lots of room and everyone is welcome. There is another fine book group in East Dulwich, The Green and Blue. Both of us are on the EDF. Feel free to join and check previous postings for a flavour of the books we read. Cheers Chick PS if you want to go on the email list pm me. -
Have a look at "Whats on In East Dulwich", there two book clubs on the go.

Greetings book clubbers, Thanks to everyone who came to another very good meeting last Wednesday. And welcome Chloe. The next book is The Shipping News by E Annie Proulx. A brief synopsis: The story centers on Quoyle, a newspaper pressroom worker from upstate New York whose father emigrated from Newfoundland. Shortly after his parents' suicide, Quoyle's unfaithful and abusive wife Petal leaves town and attempts to sell their two daughters to sex traffickers. Soon thereafter, Petal and her lover are killed in a car accident; the young girl is located by police and returned to Quoyle. Despite his daughters' safe return, Quoyle's life is collapsing, and his paternal aunt, Agnis Hamm, convinces him to return to Newfoundland for a new beginning. They return to their ancestral home on Quoyle's Point. He obtains work as a traffic accident reporter for the Gammy Bird, the local newspaper in Killick-Claw, a small town. The Gammy Bird's editor also asks him to document the shipping news, arrivals and departures from the local port, which soon grows into Quoyle's signature articles on boats of interest in the harbour. Quoyle gradually makes friends within the community, learns about his own troubled family background, and begins a relationship with a local woman, Wavey. Quoyle's growth in confidence and emotional strength, as well as his ability to be comfortable in a loving relationship, become the book's main focus. Quoyle learns deep and disturbing secrets about his ancestors that emerge in strange ways. Date for next meeting is 20th June at the Clockhouse. I am going to arrange a showing of Apocalypse Now some time in the near future in the Clockhouse which would be interesting after our last book. Let me know if you are interested please. Hoots & hugs Chick. -

Greetings book clubbers, hope you are all enjoying this month?s book. I managed to finish The Poison Wood Bible and should be finished Heart of Darkness in time, which is a great read, who recommended it? My self and Pat will be taking telescopes to Strakers Rd Peckham Rye to look at Venus for the last time for a while, the moon and Saturn. We will meet at 8.30 Tuesday 8th May in the car park (by the recycling bins) so please feel free to come along. -
How is it racist by the way? I can?t be bothered arguing stats with you. You are obviously a royalist and arguing stats with you is as pointless as arguing faith with a believer. Watch the second video above but it wont change your opinion.

Whats this Loz, because it's on the internet it must be true. I have no prejudices just opinions. I cant really be bothered any more. Bye

No racism intended. And I think you have pulled your figures out of a hat.

Bell was in a race with Edison and hadn?t anything other than an idea for the telephone and he got to the patent office first. The only good thing I remember about the Irish festival is how much it peed off Peter & Frances when they ran the Clockhouse. He admitted to me that he hated the Irish but they spent a lot of money that weekend so he was stuck between a rock & a hard place.
