Nutty, can I ask two questions


What sort of pace/distance are you running at currently?

Assuming we are of a similar pace (Se my runs here


Would you want a training partner for some of your runs?

Maybe we need to create a special forum wave for when running so potentially unable to say "do you post?!" ??


Have also realised that the 3 of you I spoke to yesterday - I didn't ask what you're names on here were so still not sure who I met.... not doing 3 consecutive nights out for my birthday next year - realising brain can't handle it!!!

Buggie - we had realised the same thing as you walked back from the cafe but didn't get to meet again - citizened was the gentleman reclining on the ground, his partner in the deck chair beside him (a lurker on here) and I was the white haired loon in the other deckchair

Eric - you are way out of my running league!


Thanks for the offer but:

a) I'm only running between 5-10k a session as it's part of a triathlon training (so quite often do 20-40k on a bike first then run)

b) The triathlon I've been working toward is this weekend so training will be much less often afterwards

c) I hate running, maybe because I weigh so much it hurts! (so re (b) unlikely to do so much running in the schedule post-tri)

d) I have a baby due in September so suspect all training may go out of the window to make time for sleeping :)


Again thanks for the offer, I suspect there are a few more accomplished runners on here who may join you if you start a dedicated post....


I like the sound of this wave - any ideas anyone?

I can go slower!!!



> Thanks for the offer but:

OK, no problem, didn;t know was that close. I'd like to do a tri, but swimming skills are non-existant. Having lessons so i can do a descent pace are on my "To Do" list.

I run with Dulwich Park Runners (Beginners lessons starting soon - Watch that website) , so run with the fast peeps quite regular, but am always looking for others to run with, it just make the runs more enjoyable, even if you don't chat much.

      Dulwich Gail's bakery will open on Xmas Day in "shameful" move

      By beansprout · Posted

      Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….

      Vet recommendation

      Just be careful to know exactly what they cover and the limits. i use Many Pets and Medivet, as I think one of the vets is exceptionally good. Some of the NHV are, but I’ve had a couple I’ve not liked at all.  I need consistency and to feel that they actually care more about the animals than the money.

      I haven't used them myself but I noticed recently that "Snoots" in Forest Hill is going unlimited primary care for £33/month, so basically a subscription. Easy access on the 176 from East Dulwich. I have no idea what it includes so read the contract! It's a chain but only 5 branches so not a mega corporate. 🤷‍♂️ https://www.snootsvet.com/find-us
