I ran off to the bus stop to meet my daughter and her friends at the Temple Bar in Walworth Road, saw Jah, felt a bit cold, so kindly accepted Mr Lush's offer to walk me home!


Drank some brandy with said Jah, chatted even more sh!t than I had at the Dog, and then after waving the merry Mr Lush off, collapsed in my bed. Woke up this morning feeling rather delicate, so am glad I never managed to make it to the Temple Bar!

'Tis indeed the lovely Kalamity who doesn't work in that church.

Yes Buggie, it always slips by soo quickly, but great to see everyone and so many new faces.


SteveT, that's just the best description I've ever read of forum drinks...perfect.

"...he reminded me of a youthful Ian Hislop from the 'Have I got news 4u'."! But like you say you did see me all the way across the room and you probably still had chlorine in your eyes from your swim.


Good to meet people again, I'm with you Keef, I didn't realise some of these people were there, I must walk around a bit more next time.


And agree about the staff coming across as rude, and from the start of the evening every order seemed to be met with a sigh and a look that said "do you lot have to keep ordering drinks?".


Anyway it was a goodnight, nice one Georgia for arranging it, and I look forward to the next one.

Am croaking nicely this morning. Good to meet everybody and glad I fell off the wagon last night with some style I like to think, I have memory of Guiness with a Baileys chaser before leaving The Dog.


As Mockney noted a group of us ended up in the Oriwisu Spot, its essentialy an African pub, run by Africans for Africans. It took seconds for them to welcome 5 strangers into their pub and just minutes before pool playing and interesting conversation had started. Great place, great people.


This followed by Wii bowling - sorry Sean, Piers popped my cherry on that one!

Hello, I am posting on behalf of my brother Lucas (xanthe) who had a car accident last night apparently on his way to your forum drinks in Dulwich, his car was completely totalled but thankfully he escaped with only minor injurys but quite bad whiplash and has been kept in hospital overnight for observation, his car was hit by a drunk driver apparently but obviously reports are still confused as it has only just happened, he asked me to post this message for him on his behalf, hope i've done it right.


Rhona

Well, I think I know who that particular message is meant for, (I think he might have meant you to PM it) but anyway, what an awful thing to have happened, please send him our best wishes and thoughts and Rhona it was really sweet of you to take the effort to, in what must be a stressful time,to let us know.

Guys,


Sorry I didn't make it...like I was missed :-( All this training, and stapying off the sauce was my reason for staying away, and knowing i was due a long run today. Mark my words though, I'll be there for the April one!


Hope you all had a good time

So, no one doing it again this eve then? ah well I shall do it for ya all then :p


Chav my dear remember Feb also has an extra day this year ;-)


Yes was certainly good to meet ya all last night, and compared to the ppl I'd been wiv all day you lot were normal :o hehe

Absolutely fab night. Lovely to meet so many friendly faces during the so-called gloomy month of Jan. Although I have to agree that the barstaff had an cool attitude to us must admit it didn't spoil my time and I rather think that not having a space reserved for us made for some better mingling. I say "standing up is the new sitting down"

I have been in 2 minds as to whether or not to go clubbing with Aussie friends tonight... Your post is spurring me on, I can't turn my back on a challenge! Which one were you last night then Kel?

    • While they struggle with economics of UK plc, collectively we all suffer as a result of their ineptitude. 
    • I’ve tried to find details of surgeries being held before but not found any. The section of the Southwark website that details councillors’ surgeries says that: Your locally elected Councillors will be holding a roving surgery programme in the Dulwich Hill area to enable residents to raise any local issues. Residents will be notified by letter in advance of the date, time and specific streets/roads where the surgery will take place.  Surgeries are not held in August, on Bank Holidays, Easter or in Christmas Week.  Dulwich Hill Ward Councillors I’ve never seen any notification of surgeries being held, including on the DH councillors’ social media accounts. I don’t know if any other residents of Dulwich Hill have? Neighbouring wards all seem to have times and places posted for surgeries.   
    • I wouldn't feel too bad about that. It's one of the few degree areas that you can do a BA or a BSc in, so it's a fairly wide-ranging and complex subject. Certainly Truss, Kwasi and Reeves seem to struggle with it.
    • I can't access the article - what's the gist?  I took the markets getting jittery when she was crying at PMQs to be a sign that they trusted her. But maybe it was because they were simply worried about any form of instability.  The NIC hikes have stymied the economy, which we could all see a mile off. Will a wealth tax improve things? Does anyone here think the trickle down has any impact and that chasing out the super rich will help things? Or are we just seeing off the biggest contributors to the economy? And has the Kwasi approach ever worked anywhere else?  Economics is not my strong point at all, I'd love to know others' opinions, but it seems to be she has few options, especially as the party is so divided.
