Morning Chaps/esses.


Just seen a big old film crew setting up shop a few doors down from me in one of the big grandiose Victorian houses overlooking the Rye (just down from The Gardens/The Clockhouse). I was in my usual manic rush for the bus so didn't get to ask what they were filming for. Does anyone know?

They are filming an insert for the new bond film. They need to re-film a scene that was originally set in one of the failed baltic states, its a fight scene set in a dilapidated children's playground. Instead of flying everyone back out there at great expense they are doing the re-shoots in the playground in Peckham Rye Park, the location scouts reckon it has a similar feel to it. x

I can see this being one of the great trivia questions in years to come.

As well as that, filum buffs will be trying to spot the joins, and then there'll be James Bond people going to the playground in order to mate.

Is East Dulwich twinned with Vilnius? And if we are comparable to a failed baltic state why are my mortgage repayments so high?

I'm surprised anyone believed it in the first place!

not completely implausable a friend of mine worked on the special effects for King Kong, went on holiday Bangkok and got offered a copy of the DVD, problem was that at that point he hadn't even finished the effects on the film

I'm very worried about you DM. You're having a turn; get someone to put your head between your knees and it will pass. Then have a nice cup of tea.

It has been happily neglected in SE15 for many many years, however now that it is really being used by the folk in SE22 things are starting to change. No doubt they will be shifting all the amenities towards the SE22 side ! The moment you walk past Cafe and up though the trees you will suddenly notice, rusty lamposts, a rusty fence, broken signs and a barely functioning Zebra crossing. And lets not forget the derelict splash pool soon to be filled in moved......

    • According to what I can see online, Dynamic Vines and Cave de Bruno sell totally different kinds of wine to each other.  Dynamic Vines  "work with independent winemakers who produce outstanding wine using sustainable practices in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar".  Cave de Bruno specialises in French wines and spirits from small independent producers. So two different USPs, and no doubt two different but overlapping customer bases who can afford these wines. Probably different again to the people mainly  shopping for wine at Majestic or the Co op. On the other hand, the two empanada shops appear on the face of it to be selling virtually identical products. But time will tell, won't it? Let's see how they are both doing in - say - a couple of years' time. Impossible, of course, to compare that with how they would have done if there had been only one of them. I just feel more  sorry for the original one than for  the one which can apparently already afford to have a number of shops in places like Mayfair and Highgate. I'm tempted to buy something there every week, and I don't even like that kind of pastry 🤣
    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. These Argentinian cornish pasties are clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
