Next Forum Drinks - Friday 1st October at The Actress


Recommended Posts

Holy batman ? Mikey P and me standing shoulder to shoulder with pitchforks! Who woulda thunk it!?


It?s not looking like a huge turnout for Friday is it ? but I suspect the place will be fairly rammed anyway. Unlike some venues, newcomers may not be able to spot an obvious gathering

I want to go for many reasons

- making an effort to go to all forum drinks and make nice and sociable with the neighbours

- haven't been to the Actress yet

- celebrating Friday night


BUT


I need to get my roots done and my hairdresser can only fit me in late on Friday. Life's a bitch. So I'll be there at some stage, even if I still have a towel on my head.

I went along to the Actress, was a good night and nice to see some familiar faces again.


The tumblers were good. No clowns or acrobats tho ;)

It was a good night out, thank you for organising it Georgia! Smaller turnout, but that meant I wasn't trying to talk to too many people. The Actress was quite busy, good for them, bad for us as nowhere to get an area.


Normally they are the first Friday of the month. No hints as to where the next one will be yet.

To be honest I am not sure if there will / should be another. I said before that they are not working having them every month anymore. I am also feeling that people expect me to be at all of them, as if I am hosting a party, and that isn't realistic.


So...I would like a break(possibly a permanent one)from organising them please!

Can I be the first in thanking you Georgia for all the effort you've put in for the drinks over the past three and half years. I know I don't go to them anymore but when I did I met some very nice people some of whom have become good friends. So thanks Georgia. Take a bow young lady.

    • Missing Cat! 11 months old/ Our friend, Coco, has gone missing. Last seen evening of 31st October near top of Henslowe rd where it meets Underhill Rd in SE22. We know she has started wandering up Friern Rd and further we guess but we imagine she has been spooked by Halloween / Fireworks goings on. She is a grey Siberian mix with some brown stripes down her, very friendly and likes to eat. Please let us know
    • That said, organised displays could be on Saturday before and after and the actual day, and private ones could just not have the loud ones.  It’s all down to accessibility and people caring/not caring
    • The problem this year is that 5th November falls on a Wednesday. So some places will be bringing their "bonfire night" forward to Saturday 1st and some will be knocking it back to Saturday 8th and there'll probably be a few that just go with Wednesday 5th anyway. If you're doing a public display, having it on a weekend gets more crowds. Which basically means a solid week of fireworks.
    • Fireworks in this area do feel totally incessant at this time of year, almost every evening there is terrible noise. I feel great concern for wildlife, pets (I have a senior cat who hates them), as well as people who struggle with PTSD etc. Last year I even had people setting them off in front of my home. Tonight and yesterday evening have been particularly bad. Is there anything we can do as a community to prevent this? What action can we take? Surely we shouldn’t be expected to just put up with it every year for weeks on end!
