Myself and a couple of local mums are talking about setting up an 'outdoor playgroup' once a month at the wooden circle in Warwick Gardens. Would anyone be interested in coming? Or indeed in helping to organise things? We were thinking of taking lots of picnic blankets, a box of toys, some flasks of tea, a picnic, some bunting and some babies & toddlers! I've go the go-ahead from the council. We plan to hold the first gathering on Thursday April 14th from 2pm. The idea is to kick things off with a teddy bears picnic, a few songs and a bear-themed story! All welcome!
Thanks for your PM's great to hear there is some interest. Warwick Gardens is at the Peckham end of Bellenden Road - Past Review book shop gates on the left. It's where the wingding is held. It's free and just for fun. Yes i will post nearer the time - just wanted to give a heads up to guage interest.

Hi Andy - lovely message thanks! i tried to contact you all by Facebook to make sure we weren't stepping on Antibes toes (or circle!) it does lend itself to a teddy bears picnic so well! Thanks for the endorsement! Will let you know how it goes.

Hi circle people - I've been up in the loft in search of picnic type blankets. Alas I only found a couple. Could people keep their eyes out at jumble / sales / parents garages etc - it would be nice to have enough to fill the circle. Ta x

Hi folks I've set up a Facebook group for anyone interested in coming along to our new monthly community outdoor playgroup starting on Thursday 14th April in Warwick Gardens. Local mums and babies and toddlers welcome for a teddy bears picnic with songs and a story. I'll pop the details on here too for any non 'bookers. X

    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.   
    • Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one.  In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.
    • I guess its the thing these days to demonstrate an attitude, in this instance seemingly of the negative kind, instead of taking pride in your work and have standards then 🤷‍♀️
