Next Forum Drinks - Friday 1st October at The Actress


Recommended Posts

Axeman, you're totally entitled to that opinion, and you're not alone in thinking that the drinks are a bit sad. However, there was really no need to be nasty about it, especially to Georgia who is being helpful and nice. Basically you've just come across as a bit of a c**t.

I don?t get the idea that this forum is ?supposed? (who makes these rules anyway) to be anonymous. It is a local forum for a residential area in London*. How can it be anonymous? There are plenty of boards online which are not a tool to speak to your next door neighbours and therefore pretty anonymous but why should anyone feel that they need a place to vent things to their neighbours anonymously?


Anyway the forum drinks are always a blast. Although admittedly I haven?t been to one in quite literally years but I?ve met more genuinely nice people through them than you can safely shake a stick at.


* And certain areas of Surrey.

I totally agree with you Brendan. And it's because it's a predominently local forum that it is such a gerat place to advertise local events and find local people/ make new friends that one has something in common with. Of course not everyone will get along with everyone else, that's a normal part of life but why anyone would criticise Georgia for organising something that is well attended and clearly enjoyed by those that attend it is mystifying.

True, Narnia, however it is quite a small one and I tend to use it only when the need arises.

Realatively new to This Forum. Not been to any of the Forum Drink Ups as they

are held on a Friday and I take my 84 year old Mother shopping every Saturday meaning

I cannot drink too much the night before.


I have met Only one forum member, a neighbour, at the opening of the Actress.

We had a really good chat dispite having very different opinions on certain topics

here at EDF.


I am sure many people who are already friends or have made friends here do not all share the same opinion.

No point in a forum where everyone agrees with everything and everyone,


This is a place for sharing opinions on local issues.


People who are well aquainted with each other will Jest from time to time.

I do not know people well enough to do so.


Axeman, It would seem there is no place for you here at EDF with your intimate insults

of people you don't know that well. Think yourself lucky the Mods. have not banned you.

I say


An actress, had experience with a few of those, lovely girls the lot of them, does this one like champagne too ?


Must be honset old chap, actresses and not brilliant at the old conversation but always pleasing on the eye.


Must dash

    • I sometimes don't feel as comfortable as I did but it's not because I'm older, it's because I'm sober. Staggering home when I was younger I always felt I like a had a cloak of invisibility around me. And a magic compass - not even sure how I found my way home some nights. 
    • I'm London born and bred and have always considered myself streetwise having grown up in Notting hill (pre getrification) and I lived on the border of Harlesden (kensal green) in the 90's  when it was pretty sketchy round there .and I spent much of the 80's and early 90's in downtown New York.. I would walk everywhere at all hours of the day and night and never felt particularly uneasy largely because I was always mindful of my surroundings and walked with 'purpose'. I don't know wether its because I'm now so much older but I don't feel as comfortable as I used to walking round London. Today I was in the West end and I made sure to carry my bag on the opposite arm to that facing the kerb and felt uneasy when I saw people wizzing around on limebikes or scooters close to the kerb..I never got my phone out at all...I never used to feel like this but just recently I've had friends witness phone and bag snatching in central london in broad daylight..apparently it happened so fast in both instances there was nothing anyone could do to help..One phone snatching was during the tube strike 7.30am two guys on bikes grabbed a mans phone..My friend took the victim to a nearby hotel to sit down and recover the hotel said due to the tube strike they had witnessed many duo's of youth out very early on bikes aware that there were more pedestrians around at that time with their phones out trying for Ubers or looking at directions. I would'nt say I feel 'unsafe' I just feel more aware of being a possible target for crime than formerly. I don't know if this is due to being older or due to reading the press.
    • The fact everyone has had a CCTV camera in their pockets for the last 15+ years has done a huge amount to prevent and mitigate random drunken violence.  Thugs can't get away with what they used to anymore.
    • Do you mean that there are only very few trades people and that all of their thousands of happy customers post glowing reviews but most of them have only ever posted once to recommend said trade person on the trade person's own thread?   If so, I agree it's mysterious.
