nicky Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Does anyone know of any plans on Lorship Lane or nearby for new year? I'd like to find a bar or restaurant with a limited number of tickets so it's not too crowded to lure my friends away from Clapham....any suggestions?'s Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/1931-new-years-eve-in-east-dulwich/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgia Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Yeah we want to do something locally for New Year as well - so if anyone knows what all the bars are planning it would be good to know.

snorky Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I hear that Clapham is FAR better than ED - its tradition on NYE for the drug fiends on SE London to run amok on Lordship lane with their unexchanged needles, scaring the residentsED borders the seething hell hole of Peckham and all know about Peckham dont we.best stay in Clappers.

char1ie Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 I was aksing the Bishop about their plans - invite only, 2.00am close. I'm surprised they're not going for later. I fancy a 6.00am bedtime for an hour's sleep before I get up to get Max up.I'd like to spend the night at the Drum. I'll ask about their plans.Charlie Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/1931-new-years-eve-in-east-dulwich/#findComment-55008 Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicky Posted November 13, 2007 Author Share Posted November 13, 2007 thanks for feedback everyone - I love the idea of black tie SeanMacGabhann and will look into it more. James, I am a little worried that you are so prejudiced about people from Clapham, especially having just read your comments on the jojomamanbebe thread. Surely a cool veggie, japanese, straight-friendly, gay-friendly open-minded kind of guy like you would welcome the diversity that people different to you bring to the neighbourhood? ;-) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/1931-new-years-eve-in-east-dulwich/#findComment-55112 Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBen Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Sean is spot on. I went to the very first NY's black tie at The Rye in 04/05 and it was great. Lots of nice single girls and full of gay dudes - perfect scenario!Ever since I have tried other options all involving expensive cabs but none can compare to walking down Barry Road in a tux, having a great party and staggering back in just ten minutes.So I am definitely local this year. I hear the EDT has a good bash too. Anyone been to that?

SeanMacGabhann Posted November 13, 2007 Share Posted November 13, 2007 Funny to think that that first year at the Rye I was sharing space with people who would become forumites. Time for another round of applause for Mr Administrator for doing this whole thing....Any road, if I WAS going out for NY this year The Rye is where I would head. I do wonder who the lady who took a liking to pinching bum was that first time I went... sorry, I digressBut I'm not going out this year as Lady MacGabhann is departing for t'Far East for 3 months the day after Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/1931-new-years-eve-in-east-dulwich/#findComment-55146 Share on other sites More sharing options...

nicky Posted November 14, 2007 Author Share Posted November 14, 2007 I just spoke to a really lovely chap at the rye - they haven't confirmed the price of 'black tie at the rye' yet this year but it sounds promising.

MrBen Posted November 14, 2007 Share Posted November 14, 2007 I shall avoid regressing into anti clapham sentiments. But I'm not sure that as a demographic they do bring much diversity to the area to be honest Nicky! ED is still way more diverse and retains real chraracter - something Clapham is lacking now. I do wonder if there is a dark cloning machine in Clapham producing identikit young professionals with similar jobs, educational backgrounds, clothes and aspirations. A kind of sinister breeding ground for PR girls and Accenture consultants. They should do a Doctor Who with Clapham as the centre of all evil as the storyline. Just for a laugh. And have a final showdown in Clapham Foxtons where David Tenant saves the world from the Accenture-bots.But if you want to impress your friends The Rye at NY'rs is a great intro to ED. Followed perhaps by a visit to Cafe Nero and the expensive kitchenware store for a ?90 frying pan just to make them feel at home.See you there perhaps? (at the Rye not the Kitchenware store!)

I'll be in a nice Kilgour suit with a silver tie. (As anyone from SW4 should know, silver is the new black). I'm very up for posh clothes. People should start wearing proper hats again. And gentlemen should wear brogues. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/1931-new-years-eve-in-east-dulwich/#findComment-56169 Share on other sites More sharing options...
