great thread


I wanted to contribute a Pogues album cover with the pope and JFK, but I googled Rum, Sodomy and the Lash and it wasn't that so I thunk on and googled Red Roses For Me and it wasn't that either. I don't think I've made this up. My uncle was a parish priest in West Cork and he would drive me around the back roads and we would see the pope and JFK over people's fireplaces and I used to think about the Pogues. So can anyone source my memory?

Quote from latest Rankin you may enjoy:


"...It had taken him ages to buy his first CD player, and even now he preferred vinyl. Siobhan said it was because he was 'wilful'.

'Either that or I've just not got the herd mentality,' he'd argued back. These days, she had an MP3 player and bought stuff online. He would tease her by asking if he could take a look at the album cover or lyric sheet.

'Your're missing the big picture,' he'd told her. 'A good album should be more than the sum of its parts.'

Asset, you given up? I was poo at it too and then got it: Keef said -

Slosh is your uncle!;-)

That, MP, is quite astounding.


Btw albumen and women (that joke never gets old) rateyourmusic may often appear first in google images, but as soon as we deep link to them they pull the image and it looks suddenly like we can't do the image linking thing. So use the next image in future.

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though. Hope some of these might provide leads. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/137603-home-schooling-advice-anyone-wants-to-do-it-together/#comment-1092093 Very old post but group seems still to exist: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92044-home-education-local-group/#comment-954837 You could try contacting this forum member: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/325368-classroom-support-for-home-education-community/#comment-1621064 Two of these left for right now: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/events/event/1025-🌟-teens-11-try-painting-sculpture-street-art-at-holiday-workshops/
    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
