I'm saying this as a man who knows Mike.


Oh, and thanks for spilling about my 'hunch'. Now everyone will recognise me as I lurch up and down Lordship Lane, doing my shopping.


PS - thanks for the sympathy, *Bob*.

So, would I be correct in assuming that some of you are implying that I'm a reincarnation of a former (unwelcome?) user?


If this is the case, and you're surreptitiously using that as a default excuse to ignore, or dismiss what I claim and opine on as false, then frankly that seems like the cowardly way out.


Is this how you treat all newcomers, even if they've tried to make amends for any indiscretion?


Oh and, *Bob*. You're quite right to point-out that I misspelt 'offence'. But if we're going to be pedantic, there's a 'y' in betchya.

I think it is fair to say that this is exactly how the forum will treat any newcomers who are as peculiarly, erm, forthright as you are. You are more than welcome to apologise for misjudging the tone of this forum and being very offensive, and I think Ladymuck was very gracious to accept so quickly. But just as you claim the right to speak so frankly, others have the right to find your apology insincere or simply inadequate.


No one on here asked for a superhero, Axeman, and no one elected you to the post of chief whip. So don't be surprised that you aren't getting a warm welcome.


(Yes Brum sweetie, I know. Sorry.)

No way Axeman's Mike - unless Mike has spent every hour god sends since his unfortunate Nunhead ramblings at the school of spelling and rhetoric and didacticism.


Axeman, you were quite rude, but no ruder I think than some people already on here - so I'm going to go against the flow and not tell you to f@ck off. I think you're right to say there's insincerity on here, but you're wrong to assume that nobody really likes each other - they do - and axe or no, they'll hack you to pieces if you suggest otherwise.


Anyway, for my part, welcome, with one massive caveat. Pronouncing yourself the Chief Whip and talk of "putting the stick about" is the kind of pomposity that suggests you're masturbating furiously in front of both a mirror and your computer screen. So, you know, don't.

Yes there probably is insincerity on this forum, and I've only ever been to a couple of the forum "socials" because smalltalk with strangers isn't really my bag. So I kind of understand what axeman is on about.


But plenty of people enjoy the drinks, so why criticise? I don't get it.

He is so obviously a troll....why pamper to that?

Oh dear Karter and LM. In one sentence you are both telling him to f off and in another there's no reason for him to be banned, it's a learning experience. This person doesn't want to exchange opinions with forumites. He just wants to wind people up. You two have had your happy pills far too early.

    • I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?
    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
    • Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
    • interesting the police said "the car was in demand at the moment" what make/model is that?
