In San marino - I enjoyed several bottles of Robust Italians red wine with Il Duces face on the label

At Statue Park on the outskirts of Budapest they have moved all the giant communist statues to a bit of wasteland and have a communist memrobilia store on site. When I visited with friends our purchases included (no word of a lie) a rubber Lenin mask and The Best Communism 2 on tape - all your favourite communist anthems!


Good times.

Used to know him well in there, I used to teach martial arts and he did used to deal in japenese weapons. He regular customers are ex soldiers or soldier wannabes he used to do lot of business with police officers whom seem to be the ones with interest in Social Services memrobilia. Not really so scary if you talk to him but not sure would want him to dinner.

Yes this place is just ridiculous. It is almost as if he does not realise what has happened to East Dulwich and who now lives here. He should be swept away with all the other rubbish, it's almost as bad as having a chain of shops in Lordship lane. I know he is an inependent but this is not the kind of independent we want. We should leaflet the area and and put some pressure on the liberal coucillors and get his lease revoked. That General was right when he said the troops do not feel suported at home and as for THIS war monger lets get rid. Anyone would think that this country was built on conflict and the old British Empire, Twaddle. It's people like us with the dinner parties, double buggies and organic wellies who founded this great nation...does anyone else think we should float the idea of some kind of wall around the area, of course we would make it out of briars or a nice bamboo, probably should not use brick to many implications Belrlin, Israel etc.

Do you mean the cut up technique that Bowie borrowed from Brion Gysin and William Burroughs?


Gun shop, bang bang.

I think so. It's a dangerous stratery (as the book says)


"you can't rewrite, 'cause to rewrite is to deceive and lie, and you betray your own thoughts. To rethink the flow and the rhythm, the tumbling out of the words, is a betrayal, and it's a sin"

On reflection I can?t remember if that quote was from the book or the film or both. All I know is a tutor I had at university used it as a kind of mantra.


I suppose that?s what you get for studying English, a boring job that gives you RSI and a flawed knowledge of beatnik literature.

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though. Hope some of these might provide leads. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/137603-home-schooling-advice-anyone-wants-to-do-it-together/#comment-1092093 Very old post but group seems still to exist: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92044-home-education-local-group/#comment-954837 You could try contacting this forum member: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/325368-classroom-support-for-home-education-community/#comment-1621064 Two of these left for right now: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/events/event/1025-🌟-teens-11-try-painting-sculpture-street-art-at-holiday-workshops/
    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
