Morning all!!!


Just wanted to say myself and Mrs Strawbs had a brilliant time last night, after getting over the initial nerves I found you all and had a great time!!


Feel pretty hungover this morning but Im off to a bday lunch today so nothing a hair of the dog wont fix!!


>:D<

Another great night - missing a few regulars, but lots of new faces - most of whom I didn't get round to meeting.


Did manage to meet Mrs Brendan (Brendan, tell her from me she's fabulous and I'm still smiling at the idea of her woo-hooing out of her window, Bagpuss (our neighbour!), Hannah6_6, and Strawbs very briefly in the ladies - hopefully you and jaws are completely convince about moving to ED now.


Lovely to see evreyone else again especially the ever lovely Bellenden Belle and Moos, although as always no time for a proper gossip.


Oh and Keef, I know you did, I'm a bit nervous, but I'll do it....

Another lovely evening spent with the fine folk of ED! Great to meet new faces too, EmeryWD/Strawbs/Jaws/Louisisna/David_Carnell & Hannah (x2!) - great you made it it for the 1st time - hope to see you all again!

Azul - the flat hunt continues - keep your eyes peeled for us! I imagine your new toilet hunt may be a bit more desperate..!

Had a great time, although as always had to slink off very early... boo.


Fab to see Steve, Georgia, Annaj, BN5, Brendan, Bagpuss, Allycat, BB, David, Hannah6_6, Nyge and Sue, and to meet some people new to me - Mogs and Mr. Mogs, Floating Onion (now I get the name!), Keef - our paths finally crosssed, hurrah - and the lovely Strawbs & Jaws, ED's newest residents-to-be.


See you in June!

Unfortunately I had to miss the last drinks which is a shame as it seems there were many new faces to meet. I'm up for the Herne. I'm boycotting The Vale ever since a heavily pregnant Mrs LL was refused use of the loo some time ago. Second choice would be The Alleyns Head. Not a very attractive pub but decent range of Ale and a huge outdoor area so that smokers and non smokers can mix.

June 6th sounds good - D-Day! Yesterday Mockers showed me a rather daft headline in one of the local rags advertising an entertainment - "Enjoy the full D-Day Experience!" - not really, watch the first 5 minutes of Saving Private Ryan to get a feel for the "D-Day Experience". Pillocks. Rant over.


Anyway, the Herne sounds fun. Anybody know if the Vale has had a change of management? The NTV policy of some of us could change if they have new management.

    • I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?
    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
    • Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
    • interesting the police said "the car was in demand at the moment" what make/model is that?
