I do take that as threatening behaviour, yet your the one hiding behind your computer screen,

pummelled, i take it your also one of these socks & sandal wearing numptys,

And since im 10 n half stone, i found myself far from fat.


DaveR to your statement about IQ tests. Yes perhaps they should, but then you wanna-be posh blubbering fools who think they know everything would not have one.


ive grown up in dulwich, and my gosh the change, ha you all think you live in the perfect area.

God open ur eyes, its south london, not chelsea :). Sorry that the true hurts people.

I'm confused now. I thought this was a cyclists vs motorists thread but now it's veered off into a posh wannabe incomers vs old school salt of the earth dulwich folk thread. Is that allowed?


Much more interesting is the potential fight in the offing between LadyDeliah and the 10 stone weakling who is DulwichMoan. I'd pay to see that.

The speed limit is the maximum, so in effect this is the minimum speed that you have to drive. Very few cyclists can get up to 30mph, therefore it is best to ride on the pavement.


The problem with pavements is the pedestrian. They have no rear view mirror, nor indicators (or will not make normal hand signals) and therefore do some very strange things such as suddenly stop without warning to check a text, or just cross the road without warning as they are listening to their i-pod or on the phone.



There should of course be a walking test, a footpath code, and prosecutions for those who fail to obey it.

I agree with dm. People on bikes who go through red lights and then to the pavement in order to keep moving. Then look at you like your Hitler when you try to nudge them softly with your bumper. These are the same gentrified lovers of "freerange" meat that form long lines out side the butchers on LL going round the block. The same people who call their kids names like "abigail" and "Sebastian" and buy their kids Nirvana t shirts.

    • I've never got Christmas pudding. The only times I've managed to make it vaguely acceptable to people is thus: Buy a really tiny one when it's remaindered in Tesco's. They confound carbon dating, so the yellow labelled stuff at 75% off on Boxing Day will keep you going for years. Chop it up and soak it in Stones Ginger Wine and left over Scotch. Mix it in with a decent vanilla ice cream. It's like a festive Rum 'n' Raisin. Or: Stick a couple in a demijohn of Aldi vodka and serve it to guests, accompanied by 'The Party's Over' by Johnny Mathis when people simply won't leave your flat.
    • Not miserable at all! I feel the same and also want to complain to the council but not sure who or where best to aim it at? I have flagged it with our local MP and one Southwark councillor previously but only verbally when discussing other things and didn’t get anywhere other than them agreeing it was very frustrating etc. but would love to do something on paper. I think they’ve been pretty much every night for the last couple of weeks and my cat is hating it! As am I !
    • That is also a Young's pub, like The Cherry Tree. However fantastic the menu looks, you might want to ask exactly who will cook the food on the day, and how. Also, if  there is Christmas pudding on the menu, you might want to ask how that will be cooked, and whether it will look and/or taste anything like the Christmas puddings you have had in the past.
    • This reminds me of a situation a few years ago when a mate's Dad was coming down and fancied Franklin's for Christmas Day. He'd been there once, in September, and loved it. Obviously, they're far too tuned in to do it, so having looked around, £100 per head was pretty standard for fairly average pubs around here. That is ridiculous. I'd go with Penguin's idea; one of the best Christmas Day lunches I've ever had was at the Lahore Kebab House in Whitechapel. And it was BYO. After a couple of Guinness outside Franklin's, we decided £100 for four people was the absolute maximum, but it had to be done in the style of Franklin's and sourced within walking distance of The Gowlett. All the supermarkets knock themselves out on veg as a loss leader - particularly anything festive - and the Afghani lads on Rye Lane are brilliant for more esoteric stuff and spices, so it really doesn't need to be pricey. Here's what we came up with. It was considerably less than £100 for four. Bread & Butter (Lidl & Lurpak on offer at Iceland) Mersea Oysters (Sopers) Parsnip & Potato Soup ( I think they were both less than 20 pence a kilo at Morrisons) Smoked mackerel, Jerseys, watercress & radish (Sopers) Rolled turkey breast joint (£7.95 from Iceland) Roast Duck (two for £12 at Lidl) Mash  Carrots, star anise, butter emulsion. Stir-fried Brussels, bacon, chestnuts and Worcestershire sauce.(Lidl) Clementine and limoncello granita (all from Lidl) Stollen (Lidl) Stichelton, Cornish Cruncher, Stinking Bishop. (Marks & Sparks) There was a couple of lessons to learn: Don't freeze mash. It breaks down the cellular structure and ends up more like a French pomme purée. I renamed it 'Pomme Mikael Silvestre' after my favourite French centre-half cum left back and got away with it, but if you're not amongst football fans you may not be so lucky. Tasted great, looked like shit. Don't take the clementine granita out of the freezer too early, particularly if you've overdone it on the limoncello. It melts quickly and someone will suggest snorting it. The sugar really sticks your nostrils together on Boxing Day. Speaking of 'lost' Christmases past, John Lewis have hijacked Alison Limerick's 'Where Love Lives' for their new advert. Bastards. But not a bad ad.   Beansprout, I have a massive steel pot I bought from a Nigerian place on Choumert Road many years ago. It could do with a work out. I'm quite prepared to make a huge, spicy parsnip soup for anyone who fancies it and a few carols.
