Again in the bank today my ugly distinctly un-celeb chops were mistaken by a star struck fifty-something woman. Urg.


Weird how people draw totally random connections, some with no pattern. In a lifetime I've been asked if I'm:


- David Tenant after hitting the burgers (this happens mainly in Lloyd's bank branches)

- Dougie Freedman (Ex Crystal Palace boss)

- Pee Wee Herman

- Damian from Home and Away

- Ricky Martin (possibly a compliment but it was back in 1998 and I had a tan)



Yours?

Gaz Coombes from Supergrass, circa 95 when "Alright" came out.


Che Guevara, by a surprising number of people, I never would have said it myself.


And years ago, a character from Northern Exposure (which I never really watched) but think that was just due to long hair and leather jacket.

You can get up and sing (/mime) if you want, I'm sure no-one will know the difference.

Carl McCoy of Fields Of The Nephilim at a Screaming Blue Messiahs gig at the Marquee, in my full on goth days.


Will Self in a cigar shop although to be fair he was next to me and as I glanced in the mirror opposite it was me getting confused. Drink may have been taken.

    • East Dulwich is very well served for green spaces although that doesn't preclude the creation of more.  Just wonder where the land would come from to create new green spaces - the priority for any available land would be for housing.
    • Tried Janda. Hits and some misses. Chicken Satay & Beef Rendang were excellent and spot on. Stir fried rice noodles (Kuay Teow) were unexpectedly swimming in a peanut sauce and sadly very overcooked.   They were absolutely swamped though (assume because of the excellent recent review) so wonder if quality was affected by that… would definitely go again and try more things, menu was full of interesting sounding dishes.   
    • Just wanted to say how great it is to see so many people talking about local issues here. It really shows how passionate and engaged the community is. I moved to East Dulwich a couple of years ago and have loved seeing the area evolve. The local businesses are fantastic and it’s always nice to run into familiar faces when out and about. That being said, I think we could definitely use more green spaces for everyone to enjoy. It would be great to see more events or gatherings where neighbours can meet up and make the most of what we have. Would love to hear everyone’s thoughts on this.
    • According to someone who knows, there's a broken sewage pipe from the flats above that is leaking behind the wine/sandwiches fridges. Why it's not been shut down, I don't know, as that is effluent seeping into the booze aisle.
