It certainly would seem to be The Euros..


..All pubs showing the Football are rammed.. There is bound to be much drinking and excitement.


..same as when the Rugby was on..


I haven't been to The Castle for years.. On a previous visit I fell through the floor on the way to the loos..

The old carpet was covering a hole in the floorboards. Proper pub back in those days.. :)


Foxy.

Ah memories Mr. Fox. I stepped in the door one day and the ceiling fell in

Some of us appreciate what we've got when we've got it!


Makes for a rather unhappy life otherwise :)

Went to The Castle last night.


They now only have the very cold Guinness and the ordinary kind seems to have gone.


Just before 9pm the music was turned up from behind the bar to such a high volume I couldn't stand to sit in there any longer.


We took our pints outside, drank them and went elsewhere.


Sorry for the neighbours if that is going to be the way of things now.

Loyalty, commitment seems to mean nothing these days. Sad post. She must be feeling very blue. When will people learn that dedicated service shows great loyalty and passion from their employees and that this place runs through her veins into her heart. I'm sorry to hear this, and I hope ALL the regulars go elsewhere.

There's nowhere much else to go in East Dulwich.


The Castle is/was the last proper pub left round here since the CPT became The Great Exhibition :(

also sad to read this a few days ago, not strictly ED, but it shows the changing face of everywhere.

sad that everywhere is turning into yummy mummy territory. proper south london boozers will be assigned to history.

    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.   
    • @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance).
