There something of the EDF hipster > mass market > not hip anymore happening here? Like those certain beaches of Thailand, Glastonbury and probably parts of Hoxton in 1989, it was all great until it was somehow decided that lesser sophisticates had got in on the act.


Instead, I'd like to write something sensible and intelligent about once good businesses losing their way when confronted with ?? signs but I'm on holiday (staycation in rainy Lochinver hipsters).

Oi Mr Ben as a regular of Glastonbury it just gets better and better - stay away from the Pyramid and the Other Stage and go with the right mindset and hope for reasonable weather and there's still nothing on earth to touch it. When you're tired of Galstonbury you're tired of life (or too old).

Yeah and food is food is food.. With all respect Mr Fox that's poppycock. Yes fat is important for taste but that doesn't mean that cheap burgers are the tastiest.


On the subject of good local burgers, went to the Victoria in Peckham Rye in the week and it was a beaut (chorizo scotch egg starter wasn't half bad either!)

This thread got me back to the Rye on Thursday. Two pints of ale and a cheeseburger and an order of onion rings. ?16.80 all told. And what had been a horrible, awful, no good day started to brighten wonderfully.


Whatever a Meatwagon burger does to my neurotransmitter balance (with the ale playing its important part of course), I like.

Finally made it to The Rye (very small baby makes life tricky sometimes) and had glorious burgers. But I see this is a 'summer eesidency'. Anyone know the sad date for packing up? We're off on holiday for a fortnight and I think we may have made it just in time to wave goodbye.

    • Copleston centre hire for adult parties 
    • Most churches rent out halls for children's' parties but rarely adult parties, Christ Church only does afternoon parties,   The East Dulwich Community centre hires out halls to 9 pm only and all music needs to be on a sound restrictor as is in a residential area. St Johns with St Clements have a small hall but not sure if they allow adult parties. Nunhead Green has a newish community centre with a couple of different size halls. Most places seem to charge around £40 ph  with a deposit of £100/200 (returned if no damage or excess cleaning needed.
    • Hello, Recently there have been various comments made on the forum which have resulted in heated discussions being had. I for one, hold up my hand and wanted to personally thank whoever is keeping the forum going.. remember when it was likely to close. We are all adults and should known when it is right to continue or just ignore or if really feel it necessary comment via pm. I have had a long relationship with the forum and have bought, sold, offered advice and in deed made friends on the forum over the years. It is a public forum after all and everyone is entitled to express their opinion and is also free. I am not as tech minded as most but with the season of good will approaching and-knowing in this economic climate how many people are  struggling, I  thought it would be a lovely idea, to perhaps set up a just giving page to raise funds for a local charity who might appreciate a contribution towards their Christmas festivities… On a practical side, might just be to complicated to administer as I am sure all have charities that we support so my other thought was not me, as I am useless but to set up a just giving page and whatever monies are raised, perhaps contribute to the festivities that use to be run by local shops or whatever.. Maybe even use a local church hall and just make it special for perhaps folk that find it difficult to access events or no access for say wheel chair users.. guess really, one is looking for guidance from the church and of course volunteers. Shoot me down if you must or feel the need but this is my view and no, sadly I won’t be around in the months before Christmas but can help remotely.
