I think everyone should hand their phones in on the way in and collect them on the way out.


You've patiently waited all day and slowly picked your way to the very front row to see Dizzee, your fave act, like, EVER. During 'Bonkers', your fave song, like EVER - he decides upon a spot of crowdsurfing. Do you:


a) Enjoy this special moment through the magic of your own eyes where the sacred memory of it will live in your heart forever.


b) Stick your phone in the air, watch the whole thing on a two-inch screen and then bore people to death by showing them out of focus images of Dizzee's knee accompanied by heavily distorted music.

I read somewhere that teh guy who looks like he is holding an ipad actually isn't - it's someone else pointing it in front of him


so twattage was involved, but people might be associated the wrong face


Anyway, The Stones - I thought they were great, especially Country Girl and Get Your Rocks Off. Not sure who the headliners were tho

I started to watch their set on Iplayer this afternoon but after about five minutes I couldn't take anymore. I tried again a little while later but it was even worse. Embarrassing. Fucking awful. I couldn't watch anymore. Yet I saw them a couple of years ago at Shepherds Bush Empire and they were fucking excellent.

PIL should always be experienced in a building with no windows in the performance area and all light electrically driven, saw them last year at the the Forum and they looked and sounded great, when performing songs.

When Rotten took it upon himself to have a go at at the security staff for doing their job, and continued to do so between, it put a bit of a crimp in the evening.

Though there was enough affirmation from the crowd for his rantings, so maybe it was me.

    • Well hello Manor men, I went to PM from 74-79. I was in O and Churchill. I can’t remember my tutor but do remember a number of bods. I’ve read a number of posts here about PM and recognise some things. Mudway was an arse. Hardly ever changed his suit.  Guys I remember are Alan Palmer, Wayne Peck ( had an older brother at the school and I think lived Peckham Road, Longleigh House), Owen McClery, Junior Gayle(Wing Chung master), David Banton , Steven Green ( I think he had green eyes), Rodney Evelyn, David Barton, Raymond Gillman (deceased), Neil Warner, Horace Marshaleck (deceased), Steven Watson (two years younger) I have a picture somewhere of the school winning a cross country event against other schools in the South London Press I think.  Teachers - Miss Pugh, Mr and Mrs Webster, Mr Thomas, New French teacher 1978/79 Miss Anspach, Mr Baugh, Mr Nelson, Mr Patel, Mr Sparks, Mr Dowse, African PE teacher, hard as nails, Mr Fenton for careers, Mr Kemel Also, my brother attended Adrian Lewis, a year younger.  
    • One gentleman who kept the boards up to date with community notices i.e. local residents' association events, East Dulwich Community Centre, sadly died a few years ago. He never had the keys to the NX Rd board as this was outside his ward (now known as Dulwich Hill). The council changed the locks on the boards and we do not know who was given the keys. The gentleman's widow carries on with posting community notices but only on the odd couple of boards whose locks have been broken and she can lift the cover. If I remember correctly, it was the Lib. Dem councillors in ED that initiated the boards.
    • Thanks, that’s very sensible advice  and I’ll most likely follow it. I shouldn’t need anything from them, and if anything, they may end up needing me as they’re likely to go first. Really appreciate your support.
    • Hi Jason - we had very difficult neighbours at some stage. Differently so from yours - aggressive, drinking fairly heavily etc… I tried to accommodate their many demands (and their huge dog who howled all day and used our garden as his toilet) until one day, I just started ghosting them. Cut off contact entirely, blocked their mobile phone number, ignored them when they tried to speak to me. I point blank refused to deal with them, including when they needed my signature to extend the lease to secure their new mortgage, which really panicked them. This proved highly effective and they moved soon after (after I made them sweat to sign the freehold docs they needed) I don’t know if you want to do the same if there is a personality disorder involved. But if you do, make sure all your paperwork is in order and there’s absolutely nothing you need from them.  I’m so sorry you’re going through this. It’s really unpleasant.
