agreed jimmy, and I will miss the old incarnation


However?


I don't know sweetshopdan that well, just spoke briefly once or twice in the EDT and he has a lot of ambition and work in him. and I'm very interested in the future of this place


Dan - any gutrocking news?

You're on form tonight Jimmy Two Times :))


What is this Nunhead Forum, I know of the West Dulwich, Camberwell and Forest Hill Forums but not Nunhead?


Another place to promote our local gigs perchance (shameless plug for The Goose Is Out! Sorry admin, wash my mouth out).

Dear All,


Jonny is still very much at The Gowlett and is helping us a great deal with the transition and is indeed a good bloke and landlord. We plan to keep all the good bits: The quiz, Sunday Lunch, The Jazz, Easy Come and the great beer.


We do however plan to give the place a bit of a face lift, open in the day appealing to Mums and home workers with free wireless, up the food offering, introduce comedy yes Gutrocking will have a new home and my bro will be compering when he can and also some feature live music and maybe the odd DJ.


We also want to bring fresh concepts and ideas to the table, our ethos is about doing the basics right, but giving people a reason to come back every time they visit. With my back ground in marketing I hope to let the right people know about what we are doing, and give people a reason to walk that little bit further a field from ED.


To honest though the boss is my girlfriend Lou who some of you may remember did the door at Gutrocking when it was up stairs, she is the driving force and has all the experience to turn our ideas into reality.


We will welcome feedback so please come down have a nosey and let us know what you think.


Cheers,


Dan

Please could I put some requests in??

Could there be more comfortable seats please - the chairs appear to have been discarded from an old church hall, possibly for being too uncomfortable.

Also, it is incredibly dark in the large seating area on the sides away from the TV - it isn't atmospheric because it feels like someone is trying to save money by not turning on lights. There are only 2 tables where is possible to read a paper which is irritating if you have popped in late afternoon/early evening on a Sunday with the express purpose of reading the paper whilst enjoying a nice glass of wine.

Finally, it's often unpleasantly cold. People are cold so they sit as close as possible to the fire (when it is lit which isn't that often) which means that hardly any heat gets into the room and the radiators never seem to be on.

Sorry to grumble - I love the ONH and think it is a great local but I think these minor details stop it from being a really fantastic local. Good luck!

    • Wow, well served with local supermarkets then…  Agree with ATM.. good c position to been mugged or cloned card - prob why not been considered before. Wasn’t there one outside post office and still  is2where people were abit nervous of using? Hope I am wrong but won’t see me rushing to use it…sure lots of folk will benefit thou. Not a great fan or user of Iceland but when it closed years ago people complained..  Guess they only b look at bigger sites - can’t recall an express one but a pity to those who frequent the store. Strange that Tesco can use it as local but Iceland can’t - guess it is  power of large supermarkets. Personally would have  loved an Aldi or Lidl but  clearly site to small. Only grocery stores left to come are Waitrose, Aldi, Lidl… 
    • I'm paying £31 pcm for full fibre 300, whatever that is. I'm not sure it's a particularly good deal now, but I did a comparison at the time I went onto it, and it was then. I don't have a landline any more, and my mobile is with iD, who piggyback off 3. I don't usually have any problems,  except once a few years back when the whole 3  network (?) went  down for quite a long time.
    • I have Plusnet too.   I recently (August) had some problems with WiFi connection on different days but and the turning off and turning on didn’t work.  The WiFi didn’t work for quite a few hours - overnight in one case but eventually rectified itself.   Would be interested to know how much other people pay for Plusnet. I also have a landline with them as the mobile signal is bad inside house.  That is with EE and I want to change from them to another provider.
    • That's terrible 🤬 Was it the same company both times?
