Next Forum Drinks - Friday 12th October at the George Canning


Recommended Posts

The world seems to be turning excesively widdershins today, but I'm sure it'll calm down eventually.


Lovely to see everyone, and mucho aplodjoth if I spouted far too much nonsense last night.

Once again I can but echo Sean's words at how good it was to see some new faces and I had such a blimmin' good time.

GG you're lovely and I really hope it all works out, in fact it will, I can feel it in my waters ;), and yes, our Ems is a superstar.


Right, snags and The Wire series 2 for me. Anyone up for the rugger tonight?

Thanks for last night folks but?


Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! My head really hurts! Why would the gods do this to me? All I did was have fun and drink too much.


Oh cruel world. At least thou hast brought forth ibuprofen and bacon sarnies from thy bounty.


hmm bounty?

Excellent to see everbody old and new. Personally I am still reelng from Bagpuss' revelation concerning her feelings towards ginger hair :))


There was much talk (from me?) about meeting at the CPT for the rugby in that its in ED and the EDT wll be rammed full of people and Hoopers is a little off the beaten track for many.


What do folks think? I'll go anywhere, given half the chance.


Also up for Boothby Graffo at the Hob tomorrow.


Sorry I disappeared at 1 - saw a bus come hurtling around the corner and my mind said "bed".

Awwwwww Mike I think I was expecting you to be greek cos of your surname... & was a little shocked that you were not dark haired & olive skinned but ... well how could you possibly be offended or upset with Bagpuss for long??

Another great night. Met a nice bunch of new people & as always ran out of time to talk to everyone.


As for the rugby, I had a conversation with Mike (possibly more than once!) about it & we were thinking CPT. Any other suggestions?

What time does the Rugby kick off? You poor loves with your hangovers, see coming into work has its advantages.


Hey Bagpuss I did a recci on the school & all becomes clear now, HOW close are you??? We will have to "do lunch".


May see some of you later if you are not all still recovering.?


Cheers GG

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
