Yes I agree with Ito1, I was also put off by the hectoring tone of the instructions to prospective participants. Surely that's the kind of thing that's better covered in a friendly personal introduction to the winetasting rather than the very first thing you read when you're considering signing up for it?


And when, loaded up already with full shopping bags, we bought four bottles of wine to take to a naming ceremony, they said they had no bags but could give me a box (we had no way to carry a box) and my OH and I were forced to carry the bottles in our arms up to Somerfield, where we sneaked some extra plastic bags to put the bottles in.


Of course unnecessary use of plastic bags is bad, but why couldn't they just charge for bags where people really do need one or more, and give the money to charity, as SMBS do?


But yes, there's many good things about G&B including, luckily, their wines :)

    • As the days shorten having evening fireworks for e.g. birthday parties becomes more realistic, the idea that fireworks is only about Guy Fawkes day or New Year's Eve is not a rule. I personally do not like fireworks, but other do, and I would see no reason to stop other's pleasure. I am sure the local Puritans will object, and there are issues about disturbing wild life with unexpected noise. But I'm in favour of simple pleasures. And many do like fireworks.

    • 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.
