Good fun. People came and went but I think I counted about 12 people during thr course of the evening - members, friends and partners. Garulous discussions about a range of subjects. I seem remember Huguenot button-holing an innocent bystander and cross-examining them about Catholicism, at length. I wobbled home at about 12 - via the Yilmaz.


More to follow hopefully. Thanks due to Mockney-P for staring the thread that caused it to be.

Disappointed not to read any tails (d'ya get it ... )about batdog and Dulwichmum, not to mention Mr Clear and a laydee from this meet up. I looked out for you all in Yilmaz late on Saturday night but alas, no sightings (not that I really knew who who to look for but thanks to Andrew and Flickr I shall now keep my beady out along Lordship Lane for you all). Would be up for joining in next time.

I went to Kebab & Wine myself, and due to extreme hunger went for a chicken donner no less *gasps*.

No real tails to tell, no batdog or DM there sadly, maybe next time. I believe Georgia will be on the case at some point for the next one.

I wish I had joined you now. It sounds like you had a great time. I would love to put faces to the names, and I know James too is more than keen to meet Batdog. Sadly though, our au-pair was out for the evening and we had no-one to watch Max and Freya.

    • David Attenborough has also done programmes on this amazing relationship.  This is from 2010 but I am sure that there were more recent programmes on the Beeb https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p006ry61 Mummy trees are amazing.  
    • Have you considered PIV - positive input ventilation. We retro fitted a Soler & Palau super quiet in-line fan system. This takes cool air from the outside ans is ducted into the loft. It is really quiet and very efficient. It is controlled by a reverse thermostat ie one which shuts the system off when the temperature drops to a set level. We are very pleased with it especially as it costs a fraction of a/c and provides greater flexibility in terms of location of vents and ducting.
    • If you’re into nature or just love trees, this lovely program is worth catching up on https://www.channel5.com/show/the-secret-life-of-trees It’s one of those quietly fascinating watches that leave you thinking about the world a bit differently. I had no idea that trees are connected underground by fungal networks. They use them to share nutrients, water, and even to send signals to each other. They can recognise their kind and give more support to their “relatives” than to other trees nearby. They can also remember things like droughts or pest attacks and change how they respond in the future. No wonder so many cultures and spiritual traditions view trees as sacred. In some belief systems, cutting one down is thought to carry serious karmic consequences. When you learn about how they live, communicate, and support one another, it makes sense. The natural world is far more aware and interconnected than we tend to realise.
    • I installed an all-in-one air conditioning unit at my holiday home since I wasn’t allowed to have an external fan unit outside. It actually works just as well, was easier to fit, and although it’s slightly noisier, it’s a good solution overall. https://www.orionairsales.co.uk/all-in-one-air-conditioning-142-c.asp?srsltid=AfmBOopZSVZj1_utAO-Hr4m5M323nRZru6Zmf1YuT4KP2touJ2OLaruU
