That's one of the problems with such establishments... the feeling amongst some patrons that others are not welcome.


As for "gay" being cool... give me a break!

I've been doing the email version of biting my tongue until I saw this email


Cassius, I would be delighted to meet you at the Vauxhall Tavern any Saturday night - there may be some men in there who are drinking, watching the cabaret, dancing and possibly kissing - and that's about it


Provided you pay the fiver on the door you would be made very welcome


And in case you're worried, if you need to go to the loo there will be other guys in there peeing and then washing their hands - I appreciate that the latter of these two activities is rarely seen in the gents in a 'normal' pub - so don't be too alarmed

As a gay real ale drinker I'm sooooooo glad we've got inclusivity in all the ED pubs/bars. It's good to know that a big shiny poof can get a decent pint locally - which is one thing the 'scene' certainly doesn't allow for:)


I'm not sure any local bar/pub would want to be labelled exclusively gay - could be its death knell - but if anyone other guys out there fancy meeting up to colonise a local hostelry and terrorise any cute barmen, let me know!

Yeah, ED reminds me of Tufnell Park, both are graced by a large number of gay people and so by their sheer number,

the pubs etc are well mixed :)) funny to see geezers goosing each other at the local supermarkets!


There are a few gay bars in Soho that are open to breeders which I prefer to meet gay mates as in town you still find a lot of bigotry. Bar-code can also be fun for the curious!


The one thing that gets me about gay bars is, that with few exceptions, I come out of them with the feeling that I look like an un-groomed Neanderthal compared to the average customer :(

LOL - Yeah know that feeling too... but that is because I am a breeding slob :'(


I know that the Rye does a 'Ladies night' which is next scheduled for the 31st October, I wonder if it is worth asking the Manager (Eva) if they are also doing a "Gentlemans Night" as well... I am sure if they aren't that they can be persuaded to do one.


(note : if this has already been discused then apologies, I haven't bothered to read all the thread)

    • Andy is an absolute star. Have used him for years and he’s become a hugely trusted and valued friend as well as handyman. Always willing to go the extra mile and doesn’t cut corners, but great on pricing. Can’t recommend enough.
    • Surely you are still covered under these circumstances even if you don't have the physical licence? I can't believe you would be prevented from driving? That would be a ridiculous system. I don't recall any delays   when mine was renewed. Why would their medical department be involved if you have no medical issues? Could someone have made some admin mistake somewhere along the line?
    • Does anyone have the same problem.  I am 79 and have sent my licence renewal form to the DVLA on the 21st October 20 which they have received. I have just received a letter from them them dated 22 December 2025 today saying my licence is with their Drivers Medal Department and will be processed as soon as possible. This follows my telephone call to them after three weeks  from the October date as I had not received my licence back as per their time frame. I also followed this up mid December after finally getting through but did not get any confirmation as to what the situation was. Is this normal practice? On the 7 January 2026 I will be unable to drive as my licence has not been sent back. I have no medical issues and meet all the requirements with no problem as per previous renewals in fact nothing has changed health wise.Their the letter states if they need any more details from me, they will contact me directly. Why has it taken 2 and a half months get get this far? Is this some sort of ploy to get older drivers to finally give up their driving by making life difficult as possible.  Has anyone else experienced this. Read Medical not Medal.
    • You're being a little disingenuous here. It is simply not true that "the area should remain suburban 2/3 storeys maximum" because: -> the area the development is in isn't 2/3 storeys maximum today - as evidenced by the school on the lot adjoining the development to the south, as well as the similarly-sized buildings to the north and east.  -> the SPG doesn't preclude this type of development anyway. This "genie in a bottle" stuff is desperate barrel-scraping. Now you're raising the spectre of a 9 storey building on the Gibbs & Dandy site (the chance would be a fine thing) but also arguing Southwark is too slow to approve things and opposed to development more than 2-3 storeys!
