Next Forum Drinks - Friday 1st October at The Actress


Recommended Posts

Weegee - you'll be referring to the building currently housing Casa Smerelda approaching Nunhead.


It's also been known as:

The Village Inn


but on the night we went, and I agree the food was amazing for a short period, it was known as The Duke.


I think it was once something else too but before my time in the area. Beautiful old building - shit location.


Aaaaaanyway.....yep, I'm up for one last hurrah. I've been to a few forum drinks over the years but not for a while so this sounds a top idea.

How about the all new Canning? I'm sure they'd appreciate the business.


Oooooh. A crawl!


Phoenix, George Canning, Fox on the Hill, Oriwu Spot, EDT.


Strictly speaking the Vale sits between the last two, but you know, NTV!!!

Could I tentatively suggest an alternative date?...


Ignore this is everyone else is happy with the 12th, but could I also put forward the 26th November?


(As I have only been to one - please don't let me sway it if everyoen else prefers the 12th)

VBC ? sorry but from posts to date the 12th it is (subject to conf)


If that date has to change again that?s fine but I won?t be able to attend so someone else will need to take over planning


I?ve spoken to the Phoenix and they can give me the mezzanie but I need to have plenty of people there from 6:30 ? at this time of the year I can?t book from say 7:30 or 8 o clock


So can I ask people likely to attend to say yes they can make it for that time? If not I?ll have to get back to them and rethink venue/dates


Cheers

That's a shame as we have the very excellent - and local! - duo Jen Doyle and Joe Fowler on Upstairs at the Mag that night, so we won't be able to come. And nor will anybody going to the Phoenix!


They went down a storm at the fair on Goose Green which was part of the Dulwich Festival earlier in the year.

Hey,


no worries. It is a shame, but I will be dousing myself in Polish beer and vodka to ease the pain. :)-D


As long as you all get drunk enough for me and then post some cracking photos of the nights events then I am happy :))

I'm aiming for 15 - a few either way and we should still be ok, but the more the merrier


We are limited to 40 tho so if the majority are thinking of turning up later we could struggle. On a good drinks night we see 20-30 people, on a few occassions more than that and for Georgia's last hurrah I'm expecting at least 30

I'll go with whatever, but I'm not sure about the choice of venue.


What about Hoopers...


Or, wht about a pub IN East Dulwich (it being the last one and all). The first ever drinks, attended by about 5 people including Mockney, Huguenot, Me, Mike P, and one or 2 others, was at the Mag(dalla), so it may be fitting to finish them at the Mag(nolia).

    • Just wanted to let you all know that Dulwich Antiques is serving free takeaway coffee (Old Spike), tea and hot chocolate all day every Sunday. We’re open today till 5pm.  Dulwich Antiques, 3 Upland Road. Hopefully see you there! Rachel & Conrad 
    • But is it the Village councillors who are maintaining the board, or someone else? When the boards in East Dulwich were installed, it wasn't the councillors who kept the information up to date, it was Monica from Health Matters, who was greatly involved in various  community matters (eg the building of the community garden at what was then Dulwich Hospital). I can't remember if it was her who initiated the installation of the boards in the first place. She no longer lives in East Dulwich, and nobody else appears to be willing to liaise with the councillors and community related organisations  to take this on for the various East Dulwich boards.  It would hardly take much effort. Basic information doesn't frequently change (and no, I'm not volunteering. I am overstretched as it is). It's all very well to  get a physical  community notice board spruced up, but not much use if it then isn't being used for its intended purpose. And I can't see that it is part of a councillor's job to update notice boards which they didn't initiate in the first place. I'm sure they have more than enough to do.  The notice boards serve (or did do) a useful service, but all the information which could be put on them is surely available elsewhere. (Unless it is bringing to people's attention things which are of use/interest to them and they weren't aware they needed/would like, or didn't know how else to find the information). ETA: Oh. I've just read the beginning of this thread. I'd forgotten how it started. It's gone well off topic, hasn't it. Probably just as well, reading the OP.
