No sean I didnt, when hubby returned home we sat in the garden and listened to music. I did ask but he looked a little fragile lol... I am determined to come to the next one, with or without him, though I did get a little toasted on Friday after my early afternoon wine tasting session hehe... Did you have a good evening?
On a different subject does anyone remember Neil Toibin? We used to spend many a time on our visits home listening to a couple of LP's my Dad had of performances of his. He was/is a great story teller/comic. Where can I buy anything of his? Anyone know? Does anyone remember the one about Noah's Ark and the Americans?

I've put a thread in the For Sale Section for an epic book of 3 volumes my brother wrote called The History of Irish Tennis. It's likely to appeal to people brought up anywhere in Ireland who had an interest in tennis. As threads seem to sink in that section rapidly I'm posting here. There a link to the website if you are interested.

    • Who was Diana Rayworth, when 'resting from acting'. Her successful career was very sadly cut short following a devastating accident. 
    • thanks Jenijenjen and all - yes, i remember walking or taking the bus from the elephant (where i was working) to Camberwell to get there.  I think Tim - who's still at Franklin's -  was there in those days, and the woman who ran the cafe!  Other food places that i remember fondly are the ones in Neal's Yard (with the Hunkin sculpture that you could put a coin in ) and the basement lunch place at the Tottenham Court Road junction with Hanway Street... 
    • Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x
    • People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
