EDF Drinks - tonight Friday 6th February - Black Cherry


Recommended Posts

Thank you Georgia. Blinding evening (literally), excellent collection of forumites and possibly the best venue so far IMO. I don't know you Angela but, if you're reading this you should be very proud of such a fine establishment. Cheers.

just put two and two together... got my go slow w/e brain on, so it was that Georgia (first person I met with Jenny at my first EDF drinks...) who fixed it, got it now!!!


brilliant, good choice of venue, lovely evening, thanks for organising it

So I want to know (as I couldn't be there yet again)


Did anyone "Get Karter" (or did he get anyone) ?


Did any Ladies join the "Miles and More" Harem ?


Was Chuff "Chuffed" with the evening ?


Did Woofmarkthedog turn up to bark at people (I have a nagging feeling that he/she is barking mad you know)


and finally is anyone red faced with shame ?


Maybe next time I will have to make the effort and come along

I was chuffed LuvPeckham and I managed to bundle Miles into a corner but he escaped. I also did 'get Karter', I went to knock for him on the way to see if he wanted to come out to play.


No shame for me and I cured my shyness, everybody was lovely


bet there was for some though?

Hey Luv, the campaign against Miles at the Cherry had fallen at its knees.He is too good, too slippery. He wins. Next time though you will be coming along to the drinks, we will be knocking at your front door too . Look out for that 'knock'.;-)

I ain't done nuffin if anyone nocks, if its the rozzers hide the shooters up the back passage and deny everyfing call my lawyer and tell 'im to get dawwn to peckham nick before me like


However if it is opportunity knocking then that is entirely a different kettle of fish and of course I am in to entertain such a lovely caller "more tea Mr. McVicar ?"


PS Karter - don't worry I have plans for our Mr. Miles and it may well involve the supporting structure for the new Elephant and Castle development... however may just take a few years yet to implement....

I think the camera was set to Zoom in Chuff, so pretty close. I would say from top of forehead to chin give or take an inch. I didn't take loads though as big Andrew accosted me after 5mins and took it back..

Has that left you worried? Sure you probably look great..

I wasn't there. So none of me either.

It's bad enough with the paparazzi permanantly parked outside my house and having to avoid their camera flashes but whenever I go to an EDF piss-up there's Andrew with his zoom lense. Click click click! Flash, flash!. "No pictures please, ask my agent."

Convened by The Hague Group and co-chaired by the governments of Colombia and South Africa, the Emergency Conference on Palestine brought together 30 states for two days of intensive deliberation — and emerged with a concrete, coordinated six-point plan to restrain Israel’s war machine and uphold international law. States took up the call from their host, Colombian President and Progressive International Council Member Gustavo Petro, who had urged them to be “protagonists together.” Twelve governments signed onto the measures immediately. The rest now have a deadline: 20 September 2025, on the eve of the United Nations General Assembly. The unprecedented six measures commit states to:     Prevent military and dual use exports to Israel.     Refuse Israeli weapons transfers at their ports.     Prevent vessels carrying weapons to Israel under their national flags.     Review all public contracts to prevent public institutions and funds from supporting Israel’s illegal occupation.     Pursue justice for international crimes.     Support universal jurisdiction to hold perpetrators accountable. “We came to Bogotá to make history — and we did,” said Colombian President Gustavo Petro. “Together, we have begun the work of ending the era of impunity. These measures show that we will no longer allow international law to be treated as optional, or Palestinian life as disposable.” The measures are not symbolic. They are grounded in binding obligations under international law — including the International Court of Justice’s July 2024 advisory opinion declaring Israel’s occupation unlawful, and September 2024’s UN General Assembly Resolution ES-10/24, which gave states a 12-month deadline to act. UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the occupied Palestinian territory Francesca Albanese called them “a momentous step forward.” “The Hague Group was born to advance international law in an era of impunity,” said South Africa’s Foreign Minister, Ronald Lamola. “The measures adopted in Bogotá show that we are serious — and that coordinated state action is possible.” The response from Washington was swift — and revealing. In a threatening statement to journalists, a US State Department spokesperson accused The Hague Group of “seeking to isolate Israel” and warned that the US would “aggressively defend our interests, our military, and our allies, including Israel, from such coordinated legal and diplomatic” actions. But instead of deterring action, the threats have only clarified the stakes. In Bogotá, states did not flinch. They acted — and they invite the world to join them. The deadline for further states to take up the measures is now two months away. And with it, the pressure is mounting for governments across the world — from Brazil to Ireland, Chile to Spain — to match words with action. As Albanese said, “the clock is now ticking for states — from Europe to the Arab world and beyond — to join them.” This is not a moment to observe. It is a moment to act. Share the Joint Statement from Bogotá and popularise the six measures. Write to your elected representative and your government and demand they sign on before 20 September. History was made in Bogotá. Now, it’s up to all of us to ensure it becomes reality, that Palestinian life is not disposable and international law is not optional. The era of impunity is coming to an end. Palestine is not alone. In solidarity, The Progressive International Secretariat  
    • Most countries charge for entry to museums and galleries, often a different rate for locals (tax payers) and foreign nationals. The National Gallery could do this, also places like the Museums in South Kensington, the British Library and other tax-funded institutions. Many cities abroad add a tourist tax to hotel bills. It means tourists help pay for public services.
