They did not. They were initially commuted to life in prison, and later released, after it was clear that they had not murdered the people in question, or indeed anyone, and after an incredibly brave testimony from a key missing witness who was so frightened of the police threats that he left the country before the initial trial.........all prisoners had been treated dreadfully throughout, including in prison, one left prison with an untreated fractured skull, another had to spend months in treatment after all of his schizophrenia medicated was deliberately withheld in prison, one had to be treated for various minor bone breaks.......


One of them wrote me a poem afterwards about never giving up hope, he was virtually illiterate but still the sentiment and feeling of what he'd dealt with came through. I wish I could have kept it but it remains on his file in the law firm I worked for at the time......


Anyhoo. Curry sounds nice.

Who is coming? Post here or send a PM so that I can book a table. I suggest meeting at the Forest Hill Tavern next door at about 7.15 and then eat at 8.00.


Meet at the Clock House pub at 7.00 for those that fancy walking up together?

Am not a member of your curry club - but be warned - take your own drink - last time we went Omrith informed us they no longer have an alcohol licence, but you can take your own. Or they suggested drinking alcohol before or after the meal elsewhere!
They must have softened their stance then. Co-owner sold his half share to his business partner, who said no alcohol could be purchased on premises,. We had a conversation about imposing their views on their customers, and they said the restaurants in Brick Lane do not serve alcohol.

    • thanks Jenijenjen and all - yes, i remember walking or taking the bus from the elephant (where i was working) to Camberwell to get there.  I think Tim - who's still at Franklin's -  was there in those days, and the woman who ran the cafe!  Other food places that i remember fondly are the ones in Neal's Yard (with the Hunkin sculpture that you could put a coin in ) and the basement lunch place at the Tottenham Court Road junction with Hanway Street... 
    • Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x
    • People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
    • Adapted not forced.  As have numerous species around the world.  Sort of thing that Attenborough features.  Domestic dogs another good example - hung around communities for food and then we become the leader of the pack.  Not sure how long it will take foxes to domesticate, but some will be well on their way.    Raccoons also on the way https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j8j48e5z2o
