On a date yet to be announced, Dulwich will play host to a brand new Tour de Dulwich.


This road ramble will require participants to take part on an unmotorised 2-wheel vehicle of any size or shape.


The route of the Tour de Dulwich will take in local hotspots and notspots, including excellent local hostelries.

Okay, let's draw up some rules here.


1. You must have a two-wheeled, non-motorised mode of transport. Your transport may not include a trolley or other beer conveyance. The judge's decision will be final.


2. You may if you wish fill your water bottles with beer. If you have any water bottles. But otherwise you can do as you wish.


3. You may not crash into another participant or otherwise sabotage him or her. Or you will have to drink another round before setting off again. The judge's decision will be final.


I think that covers it.

Once...



Many years ago, I overtook a less physically able person riding ( well hanging off it whilst his legs propelled him ) a trike


So being super conscious of the consequence of knocking someone like this off their "massive red tricycle". I gave him an exaggerated berth as I drove around him, looking back in my rear view mirror just to check his random twitches & foaming spasms hadn't propelled him into my path


Yes what a considerate young driver I was, indeed


I then proceeded to drive straight into the back of a now stationary "Funeral procession" vehicle



The man on the tricycle rode slowly on by, informing me;


"ohww...you crwashed into that car, you know "




W**F


*slightly TRICYCLE bloody phobic*

"In the Tour de France, the leader in the mountains competition wears a distinctive polka dot jersey (French: maillot ? pois rouge)."


I propose we award a jersey called "spotted dick"

    • I've used just about all the locally available supermarkets for deliveries over the years, and I now  use Waitrose for deliveries, for various reasons. They have a good range of the things I eat, their food is good quality and their "essentials" range is generally good value (except the tissues, which suddenly became so thin as to disintegrate immediately. I was mainly buying them for the nice plain boxes, so now I just put other tissues into the old Waitrose boxes 🤣) It is very rare for something I've ordered to not be available on the day. Their delivery drivers  are genuinely friendly and helpful. Their customer service is very good. On the rare occasions I've had issues, they have refunded me without quibbling. They often have special deals on some of the things I buy often, so I stock up when they are cheaper. I do occasionally compare prices with other supermarkets, and overall I really don't think Waitrose is more expensive, but obviously they might be for things I don't personally buy. I absolutely hate Sainsbury's, would use Lidl for some things but they don't deliver, Iceland has a very small range of things I eat, and I can't remember why I don't use Tesco or Asda any more. I recently checked out Ocado because there was some offer which seemed good value, but they just didn't have enough things I wanted to buy to make it worth using the offer. M&S don't deliver ( to the best of my knowledge) but in any case they seem to be still badly suffering from the recent hack into their system. Apologies, I have just remembered this thread is about shopping at actual physical stores, but probably many of the issues are the same.
    • Since I am of a certain vintage now, not sure if what I am going to suggest is even still around but here goes… use to be able to buy “dummy/mock papers on line and also had mini synopsis of Shakespeare plays specifically covering students wanting to gain a better understanding of play before taking mocks/ exams. Only know this as many many moons ago, struggled with English Literature and Language and this was the avenue-my parents went down. Also was at this point in my life, educated abroad as part of my fathers job.  
    • Love your comment about “shoehorned” - put a smile on my face..! As for comment about “Little Waitrose” ummmm - never really thought about it. Personally, could not care less. But guess Sainsbury Local and Tesco Express are to you more acceptable.. Ultimately, when I think about it, I actually don’t care what they call themselves - been lured by partially branding and partially convenience and what they offer in groceries.
