There has been much discussion about the horrors of Big Brother - a bunch of disparate people who row, bicker, flirt, fornicate, talk nonsense, chat about trivia, get drunk,throw up, keep chickens, grow veg, have philosophical debates, compare existentialist angst ..... AND we do all of this in public.


Isn's that us? Are we not Big Brother writ large? Do we not disport ourselves in public, strutting and preening to general adoration or scorn?


Are we not that which horrifies us?

Reasons this place isn't BB (and all the better for it)


1) No cash prize

2) No "fame". For 15 seconds. And even that is of the Heat variety. * shudders *

3) No producers messing with our heads

4) No general script behind the scenes with a vague direction of how things will turn out

5) Intelligent conversation happens on here. Sometimes

6) No. F***ing. Davina. McCall

You know, I kind of knew what she meant when she said that...


To add to what SeanMac said, we didn't audition and we weren't selected by a casting team specifically to annoy each other.

It's just happy coincidence that we do!

day 756 in the lounge


DM is flirting

Macroban is showing his pictures of ED 100 years ago.

Louisa has said something controversial.

A new contestant said..'there are too many kids in pubs round here'.... and the existing forumites yawned collectively.

HonaloochieB posted on the song game thread.

Tillie Trotter added a line to a limerick.


For todays task, the forumites must construct a picture of James Nesbitt using only punctuation marks.


Who goes?

    • A new roadmap (surely railmap?!) for rail accessibility has been published: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/accessible-railways-roadmap It says "approximately 56% of stations and around 66% of the 1.3 billion journeys that take place on the network have step-free access to platforms...  "£373 million has been committed over the next 5 years to deliver Access for All projects, providing step-free access from station entrances to and between platforms, alongside other essential accessibility upgrades. These works, together, will increase the number of step-free stations across Great Britain from 56% to 58%. "This improvement will make travel easier with step-free access available at stations covering an increased share of total rail journeys – from 66% up to 71%" Don't know what that means for us here: upgrading Peckham Rye would cover a lot of rail journeys but the cost has no doubt increased from the £40m figure previously quoted. So that would eat into a lot of the funding.
    • It's not really though, is it. It's practical.  At least we're allowed Christmas lights.

Please check our Google Reviews to speak for us: "We were really pleased with their quote, communication, and with having the job done perfectly with almost zero disruption. We think they left the space cleaner than when they arrived, and we are definitely already getting the effects of a warmer room" – Miriam & Abed, Sevenoaks, Oct 2025 "Laurence and his team were extremely polite & helpful, and the work was performed over just 2 days with minimal disruption. It was absolutely the most relaxed work I have ever had performed on the house!" – Alistair, Cambridge, July 2025 "Extremely friendly, polite and efficient" – Diane, Forest Hill, June 2025 We are always keen to chat through your floor insulation options and provide as much free advice as we can, as well as free quotes and surveys – so why not ask us today about what is possible to protect your floors from the cold ventilation air blowing underneath, keep your heat in and warm up your home? We use high-performance mineral wool slabs, never foam, for so many reasons: it is the ideal flexible material for the irregularities of old floors; is breathable, working with the way your floor has successfully performed for perhaps 100 years or more; can easily be removed to access pipes and cables; and is completely non-combustible. A local business based in Crystal Palace, we work extensively around Dulwich, Herne Hill, Forest Hill, Lewisham, Tooting, Balham and across the south East of England. Please ask us about your floor insulation options or for local project case studies today!

    • I would recommend the Dulwich Test and Service centre that used to be in Hindemanns road and then moved to the little Trading Estate off Tyrrel Road. I've used them very happily for nearly 40 years. Paul and Reg Shires.
