Ive lived in Dulwich fo 16 years now, admitidly ive kept a low profile, and I cant beleive what im hearing. Its ridonkulous, surley there is more to life than the shenanagins that gets talked about on this forum, dont get me wrong, I love a bit of gossip but its a bit like stepford round here, fishwife central more like, its hilarious. I know some of you are very bright, I know some of you are highly educated, and its a deadcert that some of you haunt the coridors of power, however I have never in my life experienced anything like this place. Im not being confrontational in anyway, please forgive my direct language, its just I feel your energies could be directed into a much more bennifical and productive pastime. If you organized you could end up running the country.
Mikecg, it's entirely my fault. I wasn't trying to be confrontational, I didn't know about the existence of the West Dulwich Forum until today, but I didn't think I'd come across a thread like that. I'm relatively new to Dulwich, and I love the fact that forums like this are there, so any newcomers can get to know people. Regardless of whether they're east/west/south or north.
No disrespect, Im quite new to this forum, and I did not anounce my arrival, and you dont have to listen to my ramblings its just there is a them and us kind of mentality on many different fronts, from how close you live to peckham to who owns what, well almost. Well I am a bloke.

maybe they meant 'abceses' but then they would be an 's' short wouldn't they???


What a hi-bl**dy-larious post

"its just I feel your energies could be directed into a much more bennifical and productive pastime. If you organized you could end up running the country"


This is a form of stress relief. We do actually run the country in our day jobs.


There is nothing more productive than talking b@llocks. We do it well.

I hate I hate I hate ...

But no.. I also hate any accusations of a "them and us" - it suggests a homogenous "us" or "them" which a reading of anythread makes clear doesn't exist - the forum is often accused of arguing about anything it possibly can.. arguing can't exist without differing opinions so how can it be "us and them"


Plus... mikecg has assimilated quite seamlessly into the forum - ach I just don't get it. There are SOME people who don't like.. say... peckham. This does not mean the EAST DULWICH FORUM doesn't like Peckham and ANYONE WHO DISAGREES is wrong. I love Peckham... so there. Some others on here don't. What are ya gonna do huh?

It isn't one of the more eloquent posts on here is it?


So be it. I often struggle with this particular point anyway. I remember quids mentioning the stepford word before and giving him a right old ear-bashing. He took it well

Thing is Sean,


It's a perception, that's all it is, of some of the types of people. not everybody is like that here I know that, one of my first experiences here was a conversation with DM, not that thats a bad thing, However after my encounter I found that I am not alone in my opinion of the type of person she is, Harmless really I suppose, it's all a bit of an act, an alter ego perhaps. You cant take it too seriousley. There are others around, but that's what makes a place like this great don't ya think's.

    • I don't know if it's still possible to get referred to King's dental hospital for orthodontic work? You could enquire? I have had very good experiences there in the restorative dentistry department. I don't know if that's the same thing though.
    • The most expensive membership they offer provides the ability to book 2 weeks in advance. 
    • My ex (who worked from home) used to ask the JWs in and ask them questions they couldn't answer. They didn't stay long 🤣 I'm not sure that the  Trump's America version of Christian fundamentalism (and now the apparent  Reform version over here) bears much if any relationship to anything that Jesus ever said, for the most part. As far as we can tell from the New Testament, anyway. But what would I know, all I know is from school. Apart from my Christian Scientist grandparents, but to the best of my knowledge they didn't rant loudly in the streets,  just sang loudly at their meetings. And to give them their due, never ever tried to force it on my siblings and me.
