That was a pretty good entrance - and Maurice has since become an essential Edfer.


What about the thread about the scratched Porsche! certainly caused a lot of heat. One guy took real exception and threw all his toys out the pram and promised not to come back and the other threw a hissy fit before warming to the banter and sort of climbing on board. (I'm deliberately not searching that thread to see if I remember things correctly)

I loved the limericks. 42 pages and counting...including these gems:


There was a new shop named Moxton

that moved to East Dulwich from Hoxton

Their slippery eels..

Resembled baby seals

But was soon bought out by Foxton


When Dulwichmum had a book launch

she had to work hard on her paunch

So she stopped eating cake

For cake eating sake

And stuck with the creamy blancmange



Maurice wants to know about crack

He's hoping that in Santa's sack

There'll be uppers and downers

and a few Golden Browners

A spliff a few Es and some smack

And how about that EDF Scrabble Game somebody spotted in November?

Well the Psalms are attributed to David and Saul but not being familiar with their specific cases I cannot comment on how much time they had on their hands or indeed how many monkeys they had in their employment. Although I believe David left Saul a few wives as inheritance. They lived in what is predominantly citrus country anyway.

    • Remember, you never know what someone else is going through behind closed doors....
    • Is anyone else having difficulty booking Silver Swim sessions (Tuesday and Thursday between 3pm-4pm?) Almost all the spaces are taken before the online booking system opens at 10pm several days before. Last night there appeared to be one space available for next Tuesday. I tried to book at one second past 10pm but was unsuccessful. This seems to have been a recent phenomenon. I made a telephone call this morning but just received a recorded message saying that the voicemail box was full. Am I right in assuming that in person bookings are now taking precedence over online ones?
    • I completely agree with you, Angelina. But it's worth noting that no one else has a problem with her, or finds her rude /  has mentioned her aggressively banging gates / ringing doorbells etc. 
    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
