Me and my partner moved to East Dulwich last August and didn't realise how hard it was to meet people!


We've heard that ED is full of lesbians but apparently our Gay Dars aren't working anymore. We have gay friends in and around London but it would be nice to know similar minded people around the same age (mid 20s) in the area that we live in.


We'd really like to meet people (obviously just for a friendship). So if there's any other fairies out there make yourself known please :) would be great to have a few drinks and get to know you.

There is an event called Pink Thursday's that some of my gay friends go to around here. Do a search for it here on the forum as its a recurring open social event (monthly I think). If memory serves they hold it at House of Tippler on Lordship lane. Also, there are a few regular social events for people to meet each other (usually announced in the events section of the forum) that are always good fun and everyone is welcome. Usually held in the Bishop and the crowd is generally mid twenties to early thirties. I met some of my best local friends at one of them.
No problem. You'll meet plenty of people. This area is the friendliest place I've lived in London and there are plenty of lesbians--I see ladies holding hands and kissing all about my neck of the woods! Perhaps you are just in the wrong quadrant of ED. Pink Thursday's also has a facebook page where they organise other events I've been told!

Haha possibly. Either that or we don't go out enough. We're only 23 but we're like two little old ladies in bed by 10 most of the time. We have met some good friends in London but its always nice to meet and get to know people in the area you live. Thanks for the info :)

P.S. get yourself and your gay friends to ED!

hello and welcome to the area :)

> I have lots of straight friends thanks



I'm not sure you meant it that way, but that does come across as though you're saying "I have ENOUGH straight friends thanks".


To be honest, I'm with Otta: your OP read to me like you were only interested in making friends with lesbians. In the area that I live in, I have like-minded friends based variously on musical taste, love of pig meat, ability to consume vast quantities of booze and drop some legs, pretty dresses, filthy humour, willingness to help out in a crisis and sheer, unbridled gluttony. I didn't choose any of them because of their sexual orientation.


I'm pretty sure that you didn't mean it that you only want to be friends with lesbians, but that's how your post came across to me too, so there's no need to get snippy with Otta.

For gaaaaaaaaaaaawd's sake you lot, her post wasn't 'snippy', you just choose to take it that way.


Cut the OP some slack will you? She just wants to meet some gay friends in her area. If you haven't anything helpful to add then just move along? Hopefully the advice already given will assist.

    • It looks as though there will be 10 of us!  We are going to Love Dulwich again for a lunch and will checkout their 'normal' menu - from what we remember from the last 2 times we went = there was plenty to satisfy every one and they were happy to take party bookings.- Hubby and I have worked out that if all our daughters, grandchildren and great grandchildren were  to come - there would be 20 of us!! As it is - the Essex  family branch live too far away to come over for an evening - so we will meet up in Essex at a later date.
    • Tend to use 37 or 42 bus as rarely been able to find parking space. Sods Law - there is sometimes a few spaces when I bus it.!
    • Just to warn anyone thinking of employing or engaging Chris and Anna Richmond, that nothing has changed.  The accounts above from others are all too familiar.  A job that we were told would take between 6-8 months is now entering its 23rd month.  They have taken enormous amounts of money from us, finished nothing, and the quality of the work that they have delivered is poor to substandard.  They take no responsibility themselves - there are endless excuses and everything is someone else's fault.  They do not care about the impact that their actions have on anyone else.   They are, at best, chaotic. They have not delivered as the designers or project managers that they claim to be. They are rarely on site to monitor the progress or quality of the job that is being delivered and they and manage their largely non-English speaking workforce by WhatsApp and Google translate.  There has been little evidence that they employ the skilled tradespeople needed to lay tiles, install bathrooms and kitchens, decorate and complete to the standard that we have paid for.  I cannot stress enough, that if you are currently in discussion with Anna and Chris Richmond about a future job or have paid them money up front for a job that they have slipped in delivering, to quit while you are ahead.  Things won't get better.
    • Hi All, I’d like to recommend Aaron Manser, who several others on this forum have also used. Aaron is an excellent plasterer, and has just finished a complicated piece of plastering work for me, including a large expanse of ceiling. His work has been of the highest quality, his attention to detail is exceptional, and he’s also very quick, and tidy too. As an added bonus he has a lovely singing voice. Happy to provide any photos of the work he has done. This is the third time over the past few years I’ve had Aaron back. Aaron Manser - 07773 410661 Regards, Damien
