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?

    • Most churches rent out halls for children's' parties but rarely adult parties, Christ Church only does afternoon parties,   The East Dulwich Community centre hires out halls to 9 pm only and all music needs to be on a sound restrictor as is in a residential area. St Johns with St Clements have a small hall but not sure if they allow adult parties. Nunhead Green has a newish community centre with a couple of different size halls. Most places seem to charge around £40 ph  with a deposit of £100/200 (returned if no damage or excess cleaning needed.
    • Hello, Recently there have been various comments made on the forum which have resulted in heated discussions being had. I for one, hold up my hand and wanted to personally thank whoever is keeping the forum going.. remember when it was likely to close. We are all adults and should known when it is right to continue or just ignore or if really feel it necessary comment via pm. I have had a long relationship with the forum and have bought, sold, offered advice and in deed made friends on the forum over the years. It is a public forum after all and everyone is entitled to express their opinion and is also free. I am not as tech minded as most but with the season of good will approaching and-knowing in this economic climate how many people are  struggling, I  thought it would be a lovely idea, to perhaps set up a just giving page to raise funds for a local charity who might appreciate a contribution towards their Christmas festivities… On a practical side, might just be to complicated to administer as I am sure all have charities that we support so my other thought was not me, as I am useless but to set up a just giving page and whatever monies are raised, perhaps contribute to the festivities that use to be run by local shops or whatever.. Maybe even use a local church hall and just make it special for perhaps folk that find it difficult to access events or no access for say wheel chair users.. guess really, one is looking for guidance from the church and of course volunteers. Shoot me down if you must or feel the need but this is my view and no, sadly I won’t be around in the months before Christmas but can help remotely.      
    • Hi all Does anyone know someone who can make a window seat cushion and cover? See image of window seat. Thank you.
    • Don't know why but it seems like there have been impromptu fireworks since early September. At one point I even wondered if there was a shooting range or something like that over Dulwich Hamlet way- the direction where the firework sounds seem to be coming from? Is there some kind of new, fireworks craze going on and where are people getting them, out of season?
