Went there last night with Bumbalina and chums.

Apologies for crappy telephone photo :-$


Splendid food - big portions, lots of variety, very good vinaigrette on the salad which was perfectly crisp. The Pate was like a light caress during a power cut. Top risotto.


Lovely environment, for the relentless and righteous non-smokers the main bar is free of annoyances like me, but for the worshippers of the evil weed there's a well heated and decorated garden marquee that is kept deliciously snug with garden gas heaters. 'Twas like a harem's boudoir in a very nice way! They'll be able to keep it post July with new regs. I especially like that because sensibly none of them are smokers.


The team were excellent. Charming, helpful, engaging, committed, prompt and just kinda nice to be around.


If you're reading this and have nothing particular to do tonight, then I reckon you should just go! It's on the eastern side of the northern 'peak' of Peckham Rye. The very northern bit - not East Dulwich Road, northerner than that ;-)

No! Damn you and your piety ;-). First you get us banned from polite society, and then you want to torture us outside the ciy gates. You've had your piddling victory, go and harass fat people.


No pikeys there last night, a couple of art students and a couple of pretty girls with alice bands. Don't qualify as inter-toll booth caravanners though.

Are you investing in local hostelries Huguenot? You have been effusive in your praise of The Drum and now the The Rye Hotel.


Either you are expanding your portfolio or your impending departure from ED to foreign parts has quite gone to your head; replacing your usual enlightening theological pontifications with enlightening reviews of pubs.


or are you simply a man of the enlightenment? :)

Just extending the repertoire.


The popularity of LL seems quite to have gone to the head of some of the management, who've forgotten the basics about customer service. Hence a conscious decision to investigate other places.


Won't be in Singapore full time until July after the wedding. Bumbalina and I are going together, so if anyone wants to buy a house??

    • Using the smart CCTV cameras is your best strategy - particularly if they have adequate infra-red capability. Setting them to be triggered by line crossing or areas of intrusion is worthwhile setting up as is linking them to a PIR sensor. The PIR could also be used to activate a sounder but that might upset your other neighbours. I have a few cameras around our property and I enjoy reviewing the recordings and apart from foxes and birds, I catch the occasional opportunistic thief on camera - like this one last Tuesday. If you need any help, please drop me a PM. S7.mp4
    • Not in Ed, but I was in NE England over the weekend and saw an otter in the wild! Never seen one before, it was quite lovely.
    • Well unless the heron got them later, there were the  two cootlets. I think some others of this year's babies must have escaped the heron. Many years ago (and possibly still, though I never see them any more) there was a whole heron family on the island  - mum, dad and youngster. I don't know how long herons live. Maybe this one is the grown up youngster.
