i just played a game of singles with the badminton pro that was at the harris girls school - he wanted to see my skill level for tightening the racquet strings. we arent even playing the same game - i can barely move my forearm after 15 minutes with him. Are we playing anywhere on weekdays this week?

Nick, that is great. Those guys on Tuesday were very good but we are only beginners still but i felt that we had improved our game quite alot (especially Mogs and those fast blasts to the middle). As discussed, you,me, Mogs, Andrew and maybe Simon is up for Thursday and i have someone else that may come too. Someone has to book Thursday though???

> bump.. are people playing on saturday this week?


Unfortunatly I'm not available this week as I am going Scuba Diving - thanks to another forumite.


But would be up for a game mid week - I like the courts at Camberwell as they have a car park too. Happy to organise just let me know if you can make the following dates Thursday 20th 7pm onwards, Friday 21st 7pm onwards or Saturday 22 but have to leave at 11:30 so an earlier the better start for me and I can do lifts


Camberwell is all booked for Thursday 20th Evening 8pm - 9pm - Everyone Welcome

and go for a drink after?... i have never quite understood people sweating their butts off, a bit like Aced outs gang on the other thread running around and around Peckham Rye, East dulwich Road, up and down LL and Barry Road and then undoing it all by having a piss up in the clock house. :)-D

without a doubt, we have been having pretty regular games saturday mornings in camberwell. we generally play doubles, etc and its a little less intense than the midweek singles sessions weve been doing. I personally think we should make the move to the harris girls school gym as its the same price and the courts are significantly nicer. midweek camberwell sessions are also not really doable for me.

      Dell Autos is closing tomorrow

      By Dogkennelhillbilly · Posted

      Is Dell Autos closing down completely or just moving? For whatever it's worth, for MOTs I've had good recent experience with The Test Centre in Deptford. They only do MOTs so they don't have any particular incentive to fail you and they usually have same day appointments. Open 7 days a week and late. https://www.thetestcentre.co.uk/our-test-centres/deptford-branch/ Obviously you would still need a "normal" garage to do servicing and repairs etc.

      Advice on dealing with a solicitor who will not use modern means of communication

      So what is the issue? You want compensation for the loss of value, or you want to expedite the matter?

      Fireworks

      By Sue · Posted

      No. What happened? I actually thought, considering it was what we used to call Guy Fawkes Day last night, the loud noises from  fireworks ended remarkably early. About 9pm? Maybe I just fell asleep and didn't hear any later ones. Do people actually burn Guys any more? Apart from at places like Lewes, where I believe they still have Bonfire Societies and burn effigies of various political figures etc.

      Xmas lunch at local pubs/restaurants?

      By Sue · Posted

      The accompaniment to our "Christmas Pudding" aka Nothing-Whatever-Like-A- Christmas-Pudding last year  at The Cherry Tree was "brandy butter ice-cream." If it had ever been near any brandy, the brandy must have been waved in its direction from a very great distance. Same with butter. The ice cream tasted like bog standard "vanilla" from a catering tub. At least it did bear some resemblance to ice cream. Whereas the "Christmas Pudding" bore no resemblance whatever to any Christmas Pudding I have ever seen or tasted in my many  decades of seeing and tasting Christmas Puddings. Oh, and Cinzano Bianco. Bleurgh. My sister used to drink that. 🤢
