I complimented her. I told her that she was more beautiful at the checkout than she'd looked in a magazine photo I'd seen the same week. She seemed pleased and talked to me. I was made up. I'd say from what she had in her trolley and the car she was driving that she has a better paid job than me!

A few years ago, the missus passed Terry Gilliam, Terry Jones and another guy (American accent, seemed vaguely familiar but she couldn't think who he was) on Northcross Rd. From the way they were looking around at things, we figured they may have been scouting the area. And of course, Terry Jones used to live in Camberwell.
Yesterday Mrs B and I were walking down LL. This girl walked past and I was convinced she was someone off telly or something as her face looked so familiar. Anyway I pondered over it as we continued our walk and it struck me, she was in fact one of the girls who tends bar in the Magdala. So from now on I shall consider all the people who tend bar in ED as local celebrities.

I think there should be a Celebrity ED ladder ranked by kudos.


Top Tier - International Stars of Film and/or Music

Members would include Michael Gambon, Terry Gilliam


Second Tier - Credible UK TV Actors/Pop Stars

Timothy Spall


Third Tier - Not so credible TV Actors/Pop Stars/Comedians

Nesbitt, Eclair


Fourth Tier - Soap Stars/ TV Journalists

Her from Eastenders/Bad Girls, Her from Corrie, Anyone who has appeared in Heartbeat/The Bill, Jeremy Bowen

OK, how about Fantasy East Dulwich Celebrities? You get points for each celebrity you spot, we would just need to firm up the categories and point values. The lesser-spotted Gambon would be quite rare so would be worth a lot more than your common or garden Nesbitt.

I'm new to this forum and only discovered it through searching this topic. I saw Erin O'Connor last Saturday lunchtime in The Cambria pub near Loughborough Junction and was trying to confirm that it was her and not sby who looks like her. Having seen your posts, I'm now certain it was her.

    • Morally they should, but we don't actually vote for parties in our electoral system. We vote for a parliamentary (or council) representative. That candidates group together under party unbrellas is irrelevant. We have a 'representative' democracy, not a party political one (if that makes sense). That's where I am on things at the moment. Reform are knocking on the door of the BNP, and using wedge issues to bait emotional rage. The Greens are knocking on the door of the hard left, sweeping up the Corbynista idealists. But it's worth saying that both are only ascending because of the failures of the two main parties and the successive governments they have led. Large parts of the country have been left in economic decline for decades, while city fat cats became uber wealthy. Young people have been screwed over by student loans. Housing is 40 years of commoditisation, removing affordabilty beyond the reach of too many. Decently paid, secure jobs, seem to be a thing of the past. Which of the main parties can people turn to, to fix any of these things, when the main parties are the reason for the mess that has been allowed to evolve? Reform certainly aren't the answer to those things. The Greens may aspire to do something meaningful about some of them, but where will they find the money to pay for it? None of it's easy.
    • Yes, but the context is important and the reason.
    • That messes up Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland - democracy being based on citizenship not literacy. There's intentionally no one language that campaign materials have to be in. 
    • TBH if people don't see what is sectarian in the materials linked to above when they read about them, then I don't think me going on about it will help. They speak for themselves.  I don't know how the Greens can justify promising to be a strong voice for one particular religion. Will that pledge hold when it comes to campaigning in East Dulwich (which is majority atheist)? https://censusdata.uk/e02000836-east-dulwich/ts030-religion
