Penge West Buddies?

[bermygirl31]

Hi all,

So I know this is the East Dulwich Forum, but unfortunately Penge don't have such a sophisticated forum for me to join! Have moved to Penge West, and am wondering if there is anyone on there who lives around there, enjoys a drink and a good craic now and then, and might enjoy a social get together? I am in the process of starting a forum like this for Penge but figured in the meantime I could suss out any potential new friends. :) I am a 38 professional woman by the way... just in case anyone was wondering!

Hi bermygirl31. Have you seen the "Penge tourist board" group on facebook? Very active group discussing local issues and social events.

Hi Bermygirl31

Not sure if you like dancing but Penge have a very friendly salsa club in Royston Road. Its held in the Royston Club 85 Royston Road Penge London SE20 7QW on Monday evenings and once a month on a Friday. The people are very friendly and the teacher Chris is excellent. You can also have a drink as there is a bar downstairs. Tonight they are having a MacMillan charity event. 8pm until 11pm

Thanks! That sounds interesting. I may pop along. :) I am going to start a forum like this one for the Penge area. This forum has been a godsend over the years when I lived in ED.

Yes I agree its an excellent forum, very well run. If you do go this evening, they are asking everyone to wear pink but its not obligatory of course.

I forgot to tell you bermygirl31, there is a facebook page called In and around Penge. You just need to ask to join the group it should be helpful to you.

Hi bermygirl13, I'm the chair of the Penge Tourist Board, a local community group. We not only have the Facebook page, with nearly 5000 members, but also a Twitter page (2000 followers) and a website. We also organise socials - next one is for Halloween and a trick or treat trail down the High Street. I'm interested in your thoughts on a forum similar to this one. We don't cover that so are interested in publicising it should you create one.
