LB - Pick up a blue and white scarf and join me and kpc in the Birmingham City Supporters Club (East Dulwich Branch). We can explain all you need to know about what football is really about - the pain of losing, and the occasional joy of winning.... and the singing....did I mention that?!

Start by supporting your local team. That would be Dulwich Hamlets or Millwall.


Get warm underwear and big woolly scarf. Learn a few phrases to be shouted at apt times, eg, "Who is the elegant athelete in the black who seems a trifle myopic?".


Go with friends and consume lots of hot bovril or beer. If you choose Millwall, the pies outside the ground are better than inside.


Enjoy.

I forgot to say - we can teach you the off-side rule too.

Haha, love it.


As a Liverpool fan living Peckham my husband does regularly go to support Dulwich Hamlet and is now one of the pink and blue army.

Although you don't need the warm clothes for Dulwich Hamlet as you can watch from the bar - result.

Extremely gracious post! Thanks. Thought it was a pretty good game. First 20 minutes were all Brum, then it evened out. Home advantage swung it, but if that goal had been given then it would have been interesting!!

Agreed - at half-time felt that we were in control and that there was very little threat - think there were half a dozen times when you passed the ball out of play. Pompey stepped it up after the break and we didn't respond. Too many players had a poor second halfd. The first goal may have been scrappy but the second was well taken and a killer punch. And we really didn't create much in the second half. Talking to Blues fans after, nearly everyone felt let down by the team. Just make sure you do the right and proper thing if you get V***a in the semis.

His outfit is terrible! He looks like he cries like a girl! He's owned by someone sinister! His manager has a face like a bull dog licking p*ss off a thistle! Anyhoo I dislike men who are prettier than me.

      Sadly I think you will never convince people like this. They think gardens have to be kept chopped back and controlled. My theory is that this comes from being (or trying to be) controlling in every aspect of their lives, so I doubt if anything you could say or show them would have any effect. But are they actually coming into your garden or leaning over into it and pulling up/damaging things? If so, maybe one of our community police people could have a word with them?

      Dear Nature lovers - advice please. I am being harassed by a neighbour who doesn't like my standard of gardening which she calls 'messy'. (I have rewilded my garden with advice from the London Wildlife Trust and a gardening expert from The Times.) I have twice caught this neighbour and her husband pulling up my plants and damaging my trees. Plus she has photographed my house, and sent a dozen complaints to the Dulwich Estate about my plan to rewild the verge outside my property - approved by the Estate some 4 years ago in line with their stated policy of supporting biodiversity in and around Dulwich. What can I do to introduce these neighbours  to the benefits to us all of returning a portion of our gardens to nature?

      Have you tried Southwark's leisure centres? As a regular attendee at Peckham, Camberwell, The Castle and speaking to friends, the dance routines for all ages are similar to Silver ones. In addition Natty, Bianca and Isac are brilliant instructors.

      I've been there for lunch a few times and the home cooked asian food (as part of Sweat Dreams cafe) is genuinely great and a must try. I think the food side of the business has been slow to be noticed but people are now realising what is actually hidden in plain sight.  As for the Aroma Lab coffee ... it is excellent, they are very welcoming and friendly (and unpretentious!). This Australian coffee snob is mightily impressed!!
