I was on the verge of tapping said PWEI fan on the bonce to tell him I too, suffer, and have one of the original pepsi logo t-shirts somewhere. but i desisted, thinking this would mark me out as musically marginal. but clearly there were more than two of us.


Sean do you know every eighties musician that gets mentioned? Were you a venue manager, or a drug dealer or something?


What's the time? It's def con one!

I'd say Jah is about right with 60 or 70 - quite a few crowd-refreshes tho so it may be a bit higher - at any given point, just standing in the room I counted 30-40, add in the significant smoking contingent* plus those people who came and left early or arrived late and I'd say 70-80 maybe?


Ultraconsultancy, firstly t'was great to meet you on Friday. Secondly I did nothing of the sort but instead spent my teens/20s in rural Ireland and then middle-England devouring the 3 main music weeklys plus whatever monthly variant came out. Jah started to speak to me about music at one point on Friday but I sort of moved away from the subject because I feared I would bore the bejasus out of him ... As is evident from my forum use, when I get into something it veers towards the "heavy"


* on the smoking note, I'm not sure what the smokers think but if that room had us in it when smoking was allowed it would have been hell up there

Sean, I'm sure you wouldn't have bored the bejasus out of me by talking about music. I think you'll find I can be just as obsessive. It's only a few short years ago that I finally weaned myself off reading the NME every week. Still get Mojo though.


Yes, those stairs were a bit scary and if us smokers had been up in that room it certainly would have been damned foggy up there even with the windows wide open.

just found this...


yes, it was a truly a great night and I was excited (very sad I know) to try and guess who was who from their sign in names...I couldnt believe how many people their were either. I dont think I got the chance to speak to half of the people there... In case anyone knew who I was - petite girl with fringe with a very tall boy and who kept saying 'Im from the wellbeing well!'!!!


Met some really lovely people...

Hope to meet again at some point

And it was nice to meet you too, hyounan - (was it you who offered a free massage or am i thinking of someone else?) sorry if I wasn't making much sense - my party ettiquette was rather the wrong way round: say hi to all the people I know first, then, when I'd had a few, find people I didn't know. Good form.

      Poundland East Dulwich soon to be replaced by Tesco Express

      The tenant's business has already failed. If the landlord doesn't accept it, they can have a vacant property, stand in the queue of creditors, and get paid little or nothing. It's a gamble that the restructuring will work and the tenant will start paying rent again. Commercial properties are often hard to let. 🤷

      GROOMING GANGS INQUIRY VOTE The full list of 364 Labour, Green, and Independent MPs who voted AGAINST holding an inquiry into the systematic rape of young British girls

      By Moovart · Posted

      An inquiry will put a huge amount of time and resource into looking at what happened in the past and why it happened and who was responsible and, in a year or two maybe more, a report will be produced and actions may or may not be taken, some of those responsible for bad decisions will already have resigned and moved on.   Given that we now already understand some of the issues that allowed this awful behaviour to continue unchallenged, my concern is less about whether there is an inquiry to examine what happened in the past but about what is being done right now to protect girls and young women from predatory and exploitative men in whatever race or identity they come in. Inquiries examine the past but don't necessarily solve problems and they certainly don't come up with conclusions quickly which is why they can often feel hollow.  I'd rather see perpetrators and those that let the perpetrators act with impunity, actually being prosecuted and an inquiry won't do that.  I suspect that's why some MPs voted against an inquiry. But do feel free to give me examples of inquiries that really made a difference and actually changed things in a timely and effective way.

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      In recent consultation on further ED CPZ the majority of respondents were against. Fully appreciate you may not live on a road proposed for CPZ. If you are close to that area it is likely you will be affected by parking displacement if the CPZ goes in. I was just curious what James Barber's position on this is? Perhaps he'll come on here and let us know. He was always really good at visiting the forum.
