Moving to East Dulwich

[huff25]

Hi all, my wife and I are considering moving to East Dulwich, we love the area and would like some advice. We have a young family, however we do not own a Bugaboo puschair, we could only stretch to a Maclaren Quest, would we be accepted by the community? Would we end up as social pariahs?

[Jah Lush]

You will be shunned and mocked in the streets. People will point at your pathetic Maclaren Quest and laugh. You have been warned.

Please also note that lattes, frappes and cappucinos are now also passe and liable to cause social death.

The coffee du jour is the 'flat white' and should be ordered, with a knowing nod and wink at the barista, despite its absence from the chalkboard above the counter.

Prams right? We're talking prams here are we? I thought Maclaren made sports cars.

[Loz]

If you can't afford a bugaboo, aren't you supposed to use one of those sling things, to achieve the 'ethnic' look? Or is that passe now as well?

[Brendan]

Sling?

Our mum used to tie us to her back with a beach towel. Is that the sort of thing you?re getting at?

Wouldn?t a rucksack of sorts be easier?

David, your comment is laughably early '09. Do keep up.

Nescafe Gold Blend is where it's at.

Mellow Birds is the one to have.

Close your eyes as you drink and there she is.. Joanna Lumley sucking on a bit of straw.

[Horsebox]

Lumley, eh?

I can't see her mentioned anywhere without the story of how her fondness for marching powder led to some rather interesting reconstructive surgery springing to mind.

Probably false but a good story nonetheless.

Words i have uttered to the mrs many times brendan. But its far too easy. Lots of complicated winding makes for real security.
