Horrible smell of sulphur in here. Has the fragrant Dulwichmum been in?


"Muley! Wake up your incorrigble drunk!"


"Here, have a Bloody Mary, that will sort you out"


Opens windows wide, gazes at glorious ED sunshine and the pod of pilot whales happily swimming in the pool


"All is well with the world"

''Yes that's right Doctor, Muley's still having acid flashbacks...

Ok, that's 3 of the large pink pills and 2 of the small shiny black ones. Will do...''


*Attaches poster 'COMING SOON! - SHENANIGANS - PRIVATE MEMBERS CLUB'


*Attaches second poster 'VACANCIES - MANAGER/BAR STAFF AND 'WAITING ON TABLES' STAFF REQUIRED - MUST HAVE EXPERIENCE OF WORKING WITH LIVE ANIMALS - APPLY WITHIN'...

"Excuse me, Mr Devil? Mr Red Devil? Do you have Planning Permission for your intended building work? And has it been submitted to Building Control? And isn't the EDF Manor a listed building? In a Conservation Area? And didn't the United Nations list it as a World Heritage Site? And...


Erm, excuse me, but I don't think those large pink pills are intended as suppositories"


"Oi, Gerroff me...let go...gerroff me tail... right, 'ave some of this..."


*kicks like a mule*

Crumbs Mike, you've certainly brought some memories flooding back. I used to love staying up to watch Bullseye with my grandparents. The best bits were the dodgy haircuts but the funniest parts were when some oik that lived on the tenth floor of a council block in Birmingham would win a speedboat or some other bizarrely impractical prize.

"staying up" wolf*? Thought it was an early evening show :p


*sneaks back to dark place from which she emerged*

"Of course this isn't your scooter, it's mine. In point of fact this particular one happens to be the original, the prototype invented and hand crafted by my Swiss great-grandfather Karl-Heinz Engelbert Von Microschuuter back in 1877. Made the family fortune, it did; of course, we Anglicised the family name to Microscooter later, when we fled here from the largely forgotten Swiss Marxist revolution of 1904. No choice, y'see- back then anything other than rollerskates was considered dangerously counter-revolutionary y'know, up against the wall and shoot 'em, what?.


Anyway, the Quiet room is for members only- kindly leave, and take your mewling offspring with you.

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
