Thank you spymun


Congratulations Mother Superior DM


I have been absent from the forum for easter so I am sorry this has not come sooner.


The first glass of laurent perrier sunday morning was an absolute delight. I am really pleased I made it to the end, now bring on the summer and V&Ts in the garden.


Thank you for your support it was good to know others were with me. Every one who did the lent thing I hope youve enjoyed yourself and had a little indulgence as a celebration.

Darling Mr Batdog,


I don't know, I am rather partial to a Riedel Sommeliers Chablis glass myself.

I sound very brave don't I? James will not let me touch his glasses unless he is drinking too - I am a butter fingers who is trusted only with an Ikea tumbler!

Dear D-Mum,


I agree that a Riedel glass is of a superior quality but nothing can beat a swarovski pure crystal http://shop.swarovski.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/eCS/Store/en_GB/-/GBP/SW_DisplayProductInformation-Start;sid=NtmppKzU0tHqKurP7hxzlMXego863ug287E=?Banner_ID=04000781%2e352&DeepProductSKU=626624

of course you'll have to invest over a ?100 for each glass BUT it is worth, otherwise better than a Riedel a hand made Murano glass from the Italian masters http://www.e-muranoshop.com/cat264.php

Wine tastes even better (tu) and for a lady of your "status" it is such a small but compulsory investment...

Darling Batdog,


You know if it were not for the fact that Gordon Ramsays own sommeliers have insisted to me that wine can only be appreciated fully when consumed from a Riedel, then I would concede.


On the other hand, you know there is so much pretention attached to food, I think I would enjoy Champagne with you if I was drinking it from a plastic beaker...

    • Copleston centre hire for adult parties 
    • Most churches rent out halls for children's' parties but rarely adult parties, Christ Church only does afternoon parties,   The East Dulwich Community centre hires out halls to 9 pm only and all music needs to be on a sound restrictor as is in a residential area. St Johns with St Clements have a small hall but not sure if they allow adult parties. Nunhead Green has a newish community centre with a couple of different size halls. Most places seem to charge around £40 ph  with a deposit of £100/200 (returned if no damage or excess cleaning needed.
    • Hello, Recently there have been various comments made on the forum which have resulted in heated discussions being had. I for one, hold up my hand and wanted to personally thank whoever is keeping the forum going.. remember when it was likely to close. We are all adults and should known when it is right to continue or just ignore or if really feel it necessary comment via pm. I have had a long relationship with the forum and have bought, sold, offered advice and in deed made friends on the forum over the years. It is a public forum after all and everyone is entitled to express their opinion and is also free. I am not as tech minded as most but with the season of good will approaching and-knowing in this economic climate how many people are  struggling, I  thought it would be a lovely idea, to perhaps set up a just giving page to raise funds for a local charity who might appreciate a contribution towards their Christmas festivities… On a practical side, might just be to complicated to administer as I am sure all have charities that we support so my other thought was not me, as I am useless but to set up a just giving page and whatever monies are raised, perhaps contribute to the festivities that use to be run by local shops or whatever.. Maybe even use a local church hall and just make it special for perhaps folk that find it difficult to access events or no access for say wheel chair users.. guess really, one is looking for guidance from the church and of course volunteers. Shoot me down if you must or feel the need but this is my view and no, sadly I won’t be around in the months before Christmas but can help remotely.
