Hi Michel - perhaps I can help with some key facts.



*The Forum was founded in 1803, by Casper Diddlecott and Barnaby Lemon, two Mormons from Penge - with the help of their fourteen wives.


*During The Great War an entire online generation of young men were lost and - after much deliberation - it was decided that women would be allowed to join. But on 12th March 1919, the day of admission, twenty-six consecutive posts about menstruation and Grazia caused outrage amongst the established male readership - and they were forced to act. 'The Family Room' was duly opened on 13th March 1919.


*There are only 500 registered users, and those on the waiting list must wait for someone to leave before they are allowed in.


*The oldest poster is Sir Keith of Otta, who is 119.


*The Forum is currently funded entirely by Foxtons estate agent, following a misunderstanding with the previous sponsor, Osbald Stennart.



Hope this has all been of some help!!!!! !

    • It wasn't an antique and bric-a-bac shop but an antique market with a number of different traders, the cafe supported all the dealers in bringing in custom, and was good enough to generate trade for them. It was Rodney Franklin's and his partners enterprise, he previously had an antique shop in Queenstown Road in Battersea. His late wife ran the cafe (she was a very fine actress, it was a 'resting' job).  It was on the corner of a junction on the left as you head towards Camberwell. And almost opposite, if memory serves at all, an MFI style furniture outlet. 
    • i used to go there in the late 80's and '90s (?) the food was served cafeteria style and there was limited choice, but what there was alays tasted amazing!  The garden was an absolute paradise, you could sit in it to lunch in the summer!  i've tried to locate its site but Walworth Road has changed so much since then - does anyone remember the house number?
    • This is very true. For some people, not even just the elderly, their pet/s may be their most important companion. 
    • Be thankful for the NHS. This is the price to treat a dog or cat. Imagine what it might be to treat a human being with cancer
