Forum Picnic - Sat 17th July - 3pm onwards - Peckham Rye Park (in front of the cafe)


Recommended Posts

No Citizen, my bitches are my homies. Spa weekend in Bath. Back rubs and bitching. As in, "does my bum look big in this bikini". "Well yes it does since you ask but never mind, we love you anyway". That sort of thing.

Well, I was too lazy to make the home-made hoomus blah blah. So I shall instead be bringing, 3 cheeses, some posh crackers, some strawberries and, of course, some coiyderr.


Oh, as we speak, this is what the weather looks like for tomorrow:.


So, Katarina Van Der Wotsit, see you tomorrow along with the other 2 musketeers.

yay - not long to go till the picnic and those light rainy showers B)


strawbs, CC, giggirl and anyone else who cannot make it, sorry we won't see you and hope you have a f-a-b weekend


to those that are coming, can't wait to meet you/see you again (most intrigued by these musketeers)


so I haven't made anything either :-$ I predict an early morning dash around the shops of ED for wine (seeking out the fabulous dry rose I tried in G&B earlier this week), some breads, olives and tapas-y, meze type things. And spam.

Apologies for omitting your title dear Lady Katharina Van Der Wotsit. Just to say, I managed to buy a small (but nifty) little "cool bag" from Sainsburys today - so don't buy one just for your picnic. An absolute snip at ?1.99!

(Lady) Esme, don't mention it old bean.


Would you like the chauffeur tomorrow if its going to be rather inclement weather? Just say if so (he'll be in Poundland)


Toodle pip.

Lady Katharina Van Der Wotsit, I can see that you are going to have to get up very early tomorrow morning. Indeed, your time management skills leave a great deal to be desired. :)) I trust that both your chauffeur and butler will be on hand to assist you.

How terribly kind of you Lady Katharina Van Der Wotsit. However, given your current plight (i.e. having left everything to the last minute) I think you'll find that your needs will be greater than mine.


However, I much appreciate the thought.


Toodle pip.

PS: Mouse mat? Do you mean the famous wrist supports? They are under my bed ready for my next car boot fair! LOL

You are just too too funny DJKQ...I could die laughing.

Sorry folks i will be coming empty handed, cupboards are bare and i cant face going out to the shops, incase something irritates me/gives me the hump and spoils my afternoon i.e queues, slow shoddy service, prefered items not in stock, someone with a home counties accent or god forbid a northerner!

    • Lordship Lane has two dry cleaners, three pizza places and an Italian selling pizza, two burger places, three bakeries, two hardware (ish, I'm thinking AJ Farmer here), God knows how many coffee and charity shops, two Italians, three nail salons, five wine shops... Where was the abject outrage when Dynamic Vines opened up literally next door to Cave de Bruno? But I don't see his customers decamped next door - no, those stalwarts are still out in force every night.  In Roman times all businesses were clustered by product. It's what kept prices down. Same in any market you go to abroad, they're all selling the same things next to each other.  Why is everyone being so hard on this new place? It's called healthy competition - you can't curtail the expansion of your business on the basis you that might hurt someone else's. 
    • I have a new fixation so any available, please let me know.  Thanks.
    • In restaurant terms I would say a chain manifests when the motivation is no longer “we are a couple/small group who have an idea and love food” who open a restaurant, them another and then a few more BUT THEN PIVOT to “we need capital to rollout out new restaurants so we have leveraged the help of the following investors”  that is the moment it stops being about the chef/food on the plate and becomes about the spreadsheet  so it is POSSIBLE  for a restaurant to have 50 branches and not be a chain - but I can’t think of any  I don’t know chango - by based on the number of outlets they appear to have just crossed/or are about to cross that line
