OK...

Thank you to everyone who made a contribution to the evening, it was very much appreciated and enjoyed

Thank you for the raffle donations from Green & Blue, Southwark News, Foxtons, Wellbeing Well and Health Matters, about ?200 was raised and I'll be making the donation to St Christopher's Hospice next week (and thank you LadyGooner for collecting).

Thank to everyone for coming, it was a great evening and really good to put faces to names. I really enjoyed it and it was great to hear so many people say that they enjoy the forum and find it fun and useful.


Have a lovely weekend


Mark


Ps I seem to have acquired eight brand new books that were left at the end of the night including Tough Love by Kerry Katona, The Battle for Big school by Sarah Tucker and Seve by Seve Ballesteros. Anyone want to claim them?

I've just woken up still a bit pissed after your party.I blame DG for putting glass after glass of sambuca in my hand. I thought if I sipped it slowly it would just have a mild warming effect. It wasn't the case. Anyway... it was a lovely party and great to meet lots of new people. I can't remember anyone's name, except Mark. Mark ? thank you for a great evening and apologies if I ate more than my fair share of cake.It was nice cake.

Thanks Mark for a great party and lovely to see y'all again and meet others. The books were just a random selection grabbed from work as I left last night as a birthday present to the forum. Some were taken but sorry some got left behind. Can you take them to the charity shop?! Wish you hadn't mentioned the Kerry Katona (it was an eclectic mix).

Great party Mark, well done for organising everything.(tu) For my sins I am working today. I am also nursing the mother of all hangovers. Met some lovely people who I hadn't met before and others who I already have.

Ahem! Is just me but there seemed to be an extraordinary amount of lovely looking ladies at the do last night, some of whom I flirted with in the most appallingly salacious manner and some that I unfortunately didn't get around to, luckily for them. I really am turning into a terrible old tart on my old age. Roll on the next drinks.:))

I'm being the mother of all cliches by posting on mrs mocker's lappy outside the bishop. If I had any dignity left I'd be appalled at myself.

Anyhooo, second the whole great night stuff, absolutely top effort Mark. So cool to meet many old faces, new faces, old names and new.

Oh and Beatnic, sorry if the missus got a bit intense, she does that sometimes ;-)


Happy days all!

I've just got back from Croydon having been dragged there by my sister and Mrs Keef to buy a suit... Having got home at 5, and had about 3 hours unconsiousness, it wasn't the best trip...


Anyway, thanks again for last night, it was wicked seeing everyone, and meeting a few new people.

    • Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?  
    • Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain. 
    • Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
