Try this "Burns classic".... (works best with the accent)


When first my brave Johnie lad came to this town,

He had a blue bonnet that wanted the crown,

But now he has gotten a hat and a feather -

Hey, brave Johnie lad, cock up your beaver!


Cock up your beaver, and cock it fu' sprush!

We'll over the border and gie them a brush:

There's somebody there we'll teach better behavior -

Hey, brave Johnie lad, cock up your beaver!

It's usually pretty obvious as it takes up most of the pub, but most of the venues are smaller than the Dog, so may not be so obvious this time (you couldn't miss it at the Drum).

The usual method it the rolled up left trouser-leg. Or search east dulwich forum on flickr for a few faces to look for.

you'll see many of us in the photo links from past drinks. They are on the forum somewhere


(I would normally post a link but work prevents me from digging around for them)


The Dog is actually quite a big venue - are we booking a seperate section? That'll help newcomers if can say go to the left hand bar or whatever


It is still the most nervous I have been in years - the first time I had to actually ask "scuse me are you the EDF" a year ago at the CPT

Don't worry about it Kel. I drank a bottle of red wine before going to my first one as I was nervous as hell and I really needn't have been because everyone one I met was lovely and very friendly and made me feel welcome. I was only there for an hour or so first time but I'd made the connection and have been going ever since with the added bonus of making some very nice new friends along the way.

      Nasty kids in Peckham Park

      By first mate · Posted

      There will always be kids pushing the envelope as the saying goes, but having some boundaries should help most understand what they can and cannot do. I think dedicated, daily park wardens is exactly what is required...with a hotline to SNT teams on the beat. Is there no way money made from Gala or from Park parking fees can be diverted to provide that funding? I feel it would be a really good use of money. The principle aim being to maintain the park as a safe and relaxing environment for all. If funding really cannot be found I wonder if there might be funding to at least train volunteer park wardens?

      They used to have dedicated park wardens, who I'm sure used to look after the parks and locked and opened the gates. Years ago I knew someone who was one. I thought they were based in that hut by the toilets. Are they not there any more? The community wardens are attached to the police rather than a specific park, aren't they?

      Great news! Peckham Rye station to reclaim its public square by next year!

      By rollflick · Posted

      Yes, sad how Rye Lane has taken a dive, interesting to see those pics CPR Dave. It's shocking how the section between Choumert Road and the Nag's Head in particular has lost its vibrancy, meanwhile the next section to the top of Peckham Rye Common has gentrified. Wonder why such a distinction in fortunes? Anyway the station square plans have fallen behind yet again, demolition won't now start this summer. The only "work" that will now take place this summer is surveying of the arcade, which they've had 10 years since planning permission to do. At least the replacement TSB branch has progressed but the Blenheim Grove corner building still looks unfinished, despite claims it "is now complete". https://www.southwark.gov.uk/planning-environment-and-building-control/current-and-future-development/peckham-and-nunhead-2
