Or a train from Forest Hill might be easier...


I would go with the cab plan, as Pies says, it shouldn't be more than ?8... That said, I always get charged ?7 to go home to Sydenham, and end up giving them a tenner because I feel to tight to sit there waiting for my change... Silly I know.

Went EDT, Inside 72 and Cherry something.


Inside 72 was best but EDt had real beer.


Loads of girls out drinking- a bit like Whitley Bay.


Will be looking for another excuse for a Camberwell Palace Summit on the Lane in the not too distant future.


We did get abused by a drunk bird out with her g.b.f. in Indside 72. My mate told him to reign in his bird and he promptly went for a twenty minute poo. She was leathered and really I'm sure she just wanted to play but could only manage a few slurred insults.


Good evening but only 4 pints before the 12.01 exit.


Thanks for all your help and advice Forumfolk.

Iv lived in east dulwich for 14 years and been to all the pubs and bars on lordship lane and seen them change over the years, but never have i hated one place and one owner as i do now, i was a reguler at the vale most weekends and was never a fan of the owner (TONY, chubby fella with white hair). many times iv observed the way he acts in the typical manner of power having gone to his head. entering the vale i was turned away and told it was full as i was with two other men, two minutes later a group of woman walk in no problem, my wife came out to talk to me and as she went to go back inside tony said, and i quote " get ur bag and coat and you can f**k off aswell" before hiding behind b ouncers may i add.

is that a way to talk to people, word on the street is havin acted in this way with many people it has become very quiete down ther,

Welcome big b.


Your story doesn't surprise me, that's exactly how I've seen him act on a number of occasions. I won't touch the place with a barge pole and I know that's true of quite a number of others, put off by his high-handed behaviour.


Your talk of it being empty has veritably made my day. The sooner it becomes a financial drain, the sooner he'll be tempted to sell up and a proper publican can run it.


Oh and here we like to call it NTV (Never The Vale) :))

My brother DJ'd there a couple of times a while ago (he quit when he realised what an awful place it is). The manager asked him not to play and hip hop or R&B, because he didn't want the "wrong type" of people coming in... I'm sure we all know what he meant...

He's a c**t. That's all I have to say about the bloke right now.


Hope someone smacks him full in the face one day, and that his glasses break in his eyes. Maybe that's a bit harsh, and I probably don't really want that to happen (the glasses bit), but I wouldn't lose any sleep if it did!


Also, welcome Big B. I recommend the CPT :)-D

    • Thank you, this really made me chuckle. It's like you met my brother as he would be the one taking more than his share. Plus the 'pikey' chutney is a winner. Unusual as in can't be identified??? Sadly I'm not the host otherwise I would definitely do that I regularly shop in the Cheese Block and am a fan. But as people have pointed out, there is no cheese shop that charges less based on bulk, so Aldi unusual cheeses may be what the familam receive! Yay, so I can get discounted mouse nibbled cheese still! Oooo, now I do love a Stinking Bishop. It actually offends my stepmum by it's stinkiness but luckily she is not one of the attendees at this particular gathering.  This is blooming genius. It's actually my partner who has the biggest issue with buying in plastic so I will have to hide the wrappers from him!
    • I like the look of SD's Sweet and Sour chicken. It's a really good dish when made freshly and well. I'll need to try it. Sad that Oriental Star and Lucky House by Dulwich Library both closed at a similarish time. They were decent, reliable, "British Chinese" takeaways.
    • William S Spicer was a family-owned firm that initially made horse drawn delivery carts for breweries (especially Fullers Brewery in W London) and horse-drawn trams. With the advent of the internal combustion engine, they successfully made the transition to coachbuilding delivery vehicles London's leading department stores using German engines. WW2 interrupted their business for obvious reasons, and their postwar attempt to become the local assembler and distributor of Bulgarian "Izmama" trucks was not blessed with good fortune. In 1953, the company pivoted to being a full-service garage, leveraging their reputation for honesty and excellence.  In 1972, the Dulwich site was sold to its present owners. William S Spicer III (the grandson of the founder) retired to Lancashire, where he founded a sanctuary for the endangered ineptia beetle, which he had encountered in Bulgaria while travelling for business. In 1978, Spicer was awarded an OBE for conservation, and a newly-discovered  beetle was named after him by the Bulgarian People's National Academy of Sciences - Byturus Spicerius.
