Well, it sounds like we're meeting in the CPT, I guess we just need to figure out when. I was thinking the 4th or 11 of April, but there's football on both nights, so possibly not a good time (though on the 11th it's Liverpool playing - they don't tend to attract very big crowds). How about the 3rd or the 10th - I imagine a lot of people will be busy over the bank holiday weekend. Any takers/suggestions?

Liverpool get bigger crowds than the Saints... Just thought I'd point that out!


Would also like to point out to everyone that they're both week nights, and I happen to know that Crystal has leave on those days, so won't have to deal with a hangover at work the following day!!!! ;-)


I don't mind when though...

No, not the Dog *shudders* Maybe we should have a EDF bbq! Anways, yep, they are all weekdays (I thought people would be away over the bank holiday). I've narrowed it down to one evening between the 3 and 14 of April. Not sure I'm cut out for this!

Err.. are we meeting up in the CPT, am getting confused. Could always go for a curry as we have so much choice on LL? Maybe Surma would give us a discount as we voted them the best...

Sunday lunch also sounds good though not sure where - needs to have a veggie option of course!

Yes Crystal also has a bad head...


I would like to point out to everyone that I met these 2 stop outs at about 6pm for a quick drink, then I went home just after 7...... What time did you say you left Crystal.... half 12 was it?!?!?!? :-S


You'd never get me doing anything like that! Well not when Mrs Keef is making pizza, and Ideal is on telly anyway ;-)

About 10 days; or


There is a little known Christian sect in a small corner of Ethiopia that believes that Easter Sunday is actually TODAY!!


Given your move from the Papists to the Prodies, I suspect that a further shift of theological perspective would make little difference in the eyes of the Lord (or your Mother) and you would be able to seek comfort in the arms of Messrs Gordons and Schweppes.

I have come this far alcohol free - so I must try to complete this whole Lent thing, even though it is killing me!


I keep putting comments on other threads, and then finding that other peoples comments seem to slot in above mine, and my comment is left in obscurity, not relating to anything else and appears random... unless that is just a sign of detoxing and my mind is starting to play tricks on me?

Darling Batdog,


Your offers are extremely tantalising, but I would never forgive myself if I went to meet you for a 'full detox' as you suggest. Although James would not even notice (the rugby season is currently in full swing), Fr O'Connor would spot the spring in my step immediately. He would surely expose my misdemeanor to the entire community and have me tarred and feathered and then run out of town!


I mean Mr Batdog, in these heels? You really would not wish that on anyone.


Have you seen the film 'Ryans daughter?' The Irish are barbarians - although slightly more cultured than the French (toilet paper of better quality).

Morning DM

Easter Sunday is on the 8th so you're nearly there! Likewise Kathryn.


CC and co. I forgot about a prearranged event I have on the 12th (not that I think the night out should be arranged around my diary; just thought I should say. Friday 13 is still good, or Sat 14th if others prefer.

    • Surprise, surprise. It didn't take them long, did it. This will be something of a test as to how much the council really care about parks and the environment. A footfall of 60,000. Are they mad? There is no way this park is designed for or can sustain that sort of use. Just had a look at the schedule. If allowed to go ahead, this will involve a large slice of the park (not the common) sectioned off and out of use for three weeks of May and the first week of June. Here's an idea, why not trial the festival in one of the other Southwark Parks, so the 'goodness' can be shared around the borough?
    • There was another unprovoked attack on Monday this week on a young woman nearby (Anstey Road) at 6.45pm. Don't have any other details, it was posted on a Facebook group by her flatmate. Pretty worrying  https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1EGfDrCAST/
    • OMFG is it possible for the council to do anything without a bunch of armchair experts moaning about it? The library refurb is great news, as it's lovely but completely shagged out - the toilets don't even work reliably. Other libraries in the area will be open longer house during the closure. July is a rubbish time to begin a refurb because it's just before the entire construction sector goes on summer holiday, and it would mean delaying the work another 8 months.
    • Licensing application for 2026 has gone in and they want to extend the event from 4 to 7 days accross two weekends.  There are some proposed significant changes to be aware of:   Event proposal moves to two separate weekends Number of days of the festival moves from 4 to 7 meaning also a change in the original licence is required Expected footfall in the park over the two weekends around 60,000.    Dear Peckham Rye Park Stakeholder,   Re: STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATION – event application: ‘GALA and On The Rye Festival 2026’ – ref: SWKEVE000935   We are writing to you because you have previously identified yourself as someone who wishes to be informed about event applications for Peckham Rye Park, or we think that you might have an interest in knowing about this particular event application.   Please be aware that the council are in receipt of an event application for: GALA and On The Rye Festival 2026’   In line with the council’s Outdoor Events Policy and events application process we are carrying out consultation regarding this application.   The following reference documents are attached to this email:   Consultation information APPENDIX A – site plan weekend 1 APPENDIX B – site plan weekend 2 APPENDIX C – Production Schedule APPENDIX D – 2025 Noise Management Plan   The consultation is open from Tuesday 4 November and will close at midnight on Tuesday 2 December 2025   Community engagement sessions will take place on Wednesday 19 November.   If you would like to comment on application: SWKEVE000935 and take part in the online consultation, please visit:   www.southwark.gov.uk/GALA2026   If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.     Kind Regards, Southwark Events Team Environment and Leisure PO Box 64529 London SE1P 5LX 020 7525 3639 @SouthwarkEvents APPENDIX A - SITE PLAN weekend 1.pdf APPENDIX B - SITE PLAN weekend 2.pdf APPENDIX C - PRODUCTION SCHEDULE.pdf And just to add that councillor Renata Hamvas chairs the licensing committee.
