Anywhere with good enough music to give it atmosphere but not so loud I can't hear myself think would get my vote.


CPT high on my list, and not just because I am a lazy wotsit who would like the idea of only rolling one block down the road to the pub (though that could be part of it!)

Ages ago in the early days of forum drinks this was discussed, but never organised.


Perhaps either the June, July or August drinks could be done at The Clockhouse on a Saturday instead of Friday, then we could have games (kickabout / rounders) and picnic on the Rye, and the pub is just opposite for pints in the sunshine. Would be nice for those with kids to be able to pop down in the afternoon if they can never get out to evening drinks. And whilst typing that last sentence, I have realised that that group may well include me, so I am pushing for this even more now!


Other option would be The Dog or The Plough, which are close to Dulwich Park, but The Clockhouse actually overlooks The Rye, and I think it could be a lovely day. We can even have acoustic guitars out and get all hippy!


Any thoughts?


(before anyone suggests organising it seperately to the drinks, people have tried doing the picnic thing, and it hasn't really worked. Think it needs to be organised well in advance as a proper EDF summer meet... Matbe even involving a BBQ...)

Sounds like fun. Do we have to run down there from the Plough again like the last time we got drunk at the Clockhouse?


I think the bbq idea is a non-starter though as they don't let you set fire to Peckham Rye. It may be for the best though as you guys would probably just get it wrong.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
