Famous Dulwichians

[Ruskin]

It may be common local knowledge but is it really appropriate to post descriptions of local celebrities, as with Jenny Eclair?

[El Pibe]

I've seen Sers Jorah Mormont and Allister Thorne regularly in Sainsbo's, clearly a brisk trade in the grizzled old knights in these parts.

If you wait in your car outside Sainsbury local at Dulwich library she will probably bump into you.

She reversed into me (gently) when I was parked there last summer. :)

Saw Eddie Redmayne at the Dulwich picture gallery yesterday!

[JDR]

Been reporter John Pinnar.... Seen in several local shops on different days. Kept saying hello because he looked familiar!

[Ruskin]

On two successive shops to Sainsburys, both Jo and Jenny were there 'doing the aisles'.

One looked relaxed while the other (not saying which one) had clearly forgotten where she'd parked her car.

[HonaloochieB]

Joe Jackson - early 80's, Dog Kennel Hill Estate. For a while.

[frarnie]

This is a free event for isolated people in East Dulwich and the surrounding areas. Myself and Nick are organising this event as we have both been through times of isolation and loneliness in our lives and we feel very passionate about helping other people who are living with the same issues. We have realised from sharing our experiences that there are many people out there who feel just like us. The elderly, single people, mothers and fathers looking after young children whilst their partners are out at work all day and many, many others. You may need help filling in forms, you may need advice about certain things or you just might want to see a friendly face now and again or have someone to talk to and share with.

The way it is right now, there are suicides, mental breakdowns and crime, as isolated people feel excluded from society. If nothing is done then this will continue. There are not many support groups out there so we are hoping that this event will bring people together to find new friends and to know that they are not alone and we may be able to save a marriage or even a life but we know we will definitely be having some fun.

The event is in the function room at the back of The Herne where there is a lovely garden so weather permitting we can sit outside. It will only be a success if you come along and bring your friends too. If you or anyone you know are in some way touched by the nature of our event or you or any of your friends are faced with isolation or loneliness then we need you to be there.

Vintage Pretty's of East Dulwich have very kindly donated tea, coffee and biscuits for us. We are also running a free raffle for everyone who comes. We are hoping that a couple of local celebrities will be there to mingle with us and we also hope to have a local newspaper person there to report the success of our event. Hope to see you there! Love Frarnie and Nick...

Just to mention that Adrian Lester is so much more than just Hustle - as a Shakespearean actor he's second to none.I still remember his Henry V at the National back in 2002/3 with immense pleasure - it persuaded my then 12 year old son that Shakespeare and the theatre were both worth persevering with. His Othello was perhaps even better - along with Rory Kinnear as Iago he was just magnificent.
