although the forum's birthday falls on the 18th September and I'd like to suggest we roll the celebration and drink into one on Friday 21st or Saturday 22nd... Hopefully we could get some sponsors and a willing venue too...


we can discuss tonight over a drink or two

Have fun at the plough but if you're going to eat I'd recommend crisps and olives. Last time I went there the "veg" of the day was a bowl of fried onions and carrots (mmmm yummy) and the "fresh line-caught mackerel" came out of a vacuum pack ....

At time of writing this, the other threads are overflowing with bonhomie - if half the people make it tonight it could be a blinder


Georgia - do we have an area booked and is it indoors or outdoors? No worries if there isn't the place is mahoosive anyway

Hi - have just tried to call them to reserve an area but the phone number is out of order. So unless anyone is around to pop in and ask, I guess we'll just have to sit where we can. Let's try to sit outside as the sun is shining...

See you all later (roll on 5 o'clock).

New number at the Plough 0208 693 4236 - my friend work there it changed when they re-opened! There is a BBQ all over this weekend, quiz show next week on Thursday and a massive board outside advertising bank holiday Real ale and cider festival, BBQ, accoustic session - pulling out all the stops! I am a bit of a regular, mainly due to the fact my friend works there - but not be biased, I really do like it, they got board games which you can play while you chill-out - brilliant idea.


I will be looking out for the forum members in the near, but I cant make tonight as I out for a friends birthday.

Good work sir to get them up relatively soon. .


i thoroughly enjoyed last night and i regret only that with so many people there isnt time to speak properly with everyone


i thought that they handled our tardiness in leaving with good grace as well considering they are a chain neighbourhood pub. .


but the big question remains. . Was louisa there?

Echo your thoughts Sean, was a lovely evening, but didn't get to talk to half enough people. Also, sorry if I did talk to anyone towards the end of the evening because I probably made very little sense! I was rather drunk last night :)-D


But hey, that's what being a numpty is all about! >:D<

It was a great night. I'm only sorry it didn't start earlier so that it could have gone on for longer. There were some people I didn't get to talk to, which is a shame. I had a great time though and met some lovely people. Roll on the EDF birthday bash!

    • OMFG is it possible for the council to do anything without a bunch of armchair experts moaning about it? The library refurb is great news, as it's lovely but completely shagged out - the toilets don't even work reliably. Other libraries in the area will be open longer house during the closure. July is a rubbish time to begin a refurb because it's just before the entire construction sector goes on summer holiday, and it would mean delaying the work another 8 months.
    • Licensing application for 2026 has gone in and they want to extend the event from 4 to 7 days accross two weekends.  There are some proposed significant changes to be aware of:   Event proposal moves to two separate weekends Number of days of the festival moves from 4 to 7 meaning also a change in the original licence is required Expected footfall in the park over the two weekends around 60,000.    Dear Peckham Rye Park Stakeholder,   Re: STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATION – event application: ‘GALA and On The Rye Festival 2026’ – ref: SWKEVE000935   We are writing to you because you have previously identified yourself as someone who wishes to be informed about event applications for Peckham Rye Park, or we think that you might have an interest in knowing about this particular event application.   Please be aware that the council are in receipt of an event application for: GALA and On The Rye Festival 2026’   In line with the council’s Outdoor Events Policy and events application process we are carrying out consultation regarding this application.   The following reference documents are attached to this email:   Consultation information APPENDIX A – site plan weekend 1 APPENDIX B – site plan weekend 2 APPENDIX C – Production Schedule APPENDIX D – 2025 Noise Management Plan   The consultation is open from Tuesday 4 November and will close at midnight on Tuesday 2 December 2025   Community engagement sessions will take place on Wednesday 19 November.   If you would like to comment on application: SWKEVE000935 and take part in the online consultation, please visit:   www.southwark.gov.uk/GALA2026   If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.     Kind Regards, Southwark Events Team Environment and Leisure PO Box 64529 London SE1P 5LX 020 7525 3639 @SouthwarkEvents APPENDIX A - SITE PLAN weekend 1.pdf APPENDIX B - SITE PLAN weekend 2.pdf APPENDIX C - PRODUCTION SCHEDULE.pdf And just to add that councillor Renata Hamvas chairs the licensing committee.

    • Second time Aria has completed a plumbing job for me and both times he’s been polite. Communicative, kept to time and completed the job. He’s very helpful and tidy as well. First job was ball valve in water tank, not easy at all. He and his team were fantastic. This time kitchen tap cylinders replaced and tap tightened.  Much appreciated, Aria thank you.
    • Thought others may be interested to help a local community centre help others.    My bank account offers roundup and it’s been growing all year. As well as treating myself or putting it towards a train ticket to see my family I’ve made a donation to the Albrighton. They can use donations at any time but I hope my donation will go towards the Christmas hampers.    Can you support them so they can provide Christmas hampers?   https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/albrightoncommunityfridge?utm_id=1&utm_term=M22JKQb6W   A donation of £50 will pay for a hamper to feed a family over this Christmas period. A donation of £30 will pay for a hamper to feed someone living on their own over the Christmas period.
