Hhmmm, I'd almost worked up the courage this month (after only six months or so of very occasional posting), but I'm working nights this week. Sorry, maybe next month.

Is that one of those Palindrome pills.....The ones that don't do anything, but make you think they are doing somthing?


I might come along tonight now, but only stay for a couple as I have a 6am start.....I should be easy to spot....all will become apparent.

Can I go now? My tolerance for contrived corporate bllsht is close to breaking point. I may not make it tonight as I will have been dragged off to the loony bin for inflicting grievous bodily with a laptop and a pack of postit notes.

Roll right trouser leg up if a chap.

Dangle handbag upside down from left elbow if a lady.


Upon meeting suspected fellow forumer, promptly spin thrice widdershins while reciting: snorky snorky belly and bum!



Or, yunno, just say something along the lines of: hello, you from the forum? We're a pretty easy bunch to spot, by and large, just cos we're usually the biggest group in the place.


(I say 'we', but I won't be there myself tonight. Hmph.)

Errrmmmm what if you are not a girly girl & dont have a handbag??? Is there a dress code at the GC, my work colleagues said it has recently been gentrified so can I get away with smart jeans & trainer type shoes???


Looking forward to meeting you all, although a tad nervous :-$

'K..... Hair... almost done, face half done, need to eat, brush teeth & change tops at least another 3 times, then repeat with shoes before rushing to LL to catch bus down to GC...... Almost there, losing my nerve but I should be there 8:30-9...

:)) I had a great time thanks to everyone for persuading me out to finally meet you all.... What a lovely crowd of peeps... Thanks especially to Em for making me feel at home & introducing me to everyone & for making me laugh so bloody much.... thanks to Piers for being a perfect gentleman (I knew you would be)... Well I could go on & thank you all individually but a) it would take forever ... b) I might miss someone out & offend & 3) Oh... I am at work & should getting ready to protect the mean streets of Bermondsey


Thank again one & ALL :)-D ~ Looking forward to the next one


Cheers Giddy Gecko x

      I’ve tried to find details of surgeries being held before but not found any. The section of the Southwark website that details councillors’ surgeries says that: Your locally elected Councillors will be holding a roving surgery programme in the Dulwich Hill area to enable residents to raise any local issues. Residents will be notified by letter in advance of the date, time and specific streets/roads where the surgery will take place.  Surgeries are not held in August, on Bank Holidays, Easter or in Christmas Week.  Dulwich Hill Ward Councillors I’ve never seen any notification of surgeries being held, including on the DH councillors’ social media accounts. I don’t know if any other residents of Dulwich Hill have? Neighbouring wards all seem to have times and places posted for surgeries.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By David Peckham · Posted

      I wouldn't feel too bad about that. It's one of the few degree areas that you can do a BA or a BSc in, so it's a fairly wide-ranging and complex subject. Certainly Truss, Kwasi and Reeves seem to struggle with it.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By HeadNun · Posted

      I can't access the article - what's the gist?  I took the markets getting jittery when she was crying at PMQs to be a sign that they trusted her. But maybe it was because they were simply worried about any form of instability.  The NIC hikes have stymied the economy, which we could all see a mile off. Will a wealth tax improve things? Does anyone here think the trickle down has any impact and that chasing out the super rich will help things? Or are we just seeing off the biggest contributors to the economy? And has the Kwasi approach ever worked anywhere else?  Economics is not my strong point at all, I'd love to know others' opinions, but it seems to be she has few options, especially as the party is so divided.

      does either of them have a surgery? probably not over summer, but I thought they had to give the opportunity for their constituents to meet them.
