This was my initial thought as well. When Australians come to stay at Casa WQ - its for weeks on bloody end.

?19 for a ferry to france, forget it, the shuttle is the only way. still at least they give a 2 for 1 kids meal voucher, nothing worse than chucking up on an empty stomach.

I haven't worked out what I am going to do for my summer holiday yet but I know I can't wait for a bit of sunshine :-).


Looking forward to going swimming in Brockwell Park Lido, enjoying the parks and just getting out of the flat more - bit tempting to curl up in the warmth of my flat with a book in this weather. Pub crawl sounds fun too Strawbs - was the one last year I first met you guys.


I quite fancy going on a salsa holiday - I've dabbled with classes but not stuck to it for long enough - a holiday sounds fun and a good way of getting my standard up a bit. Found a company that does trips to Cuba and Spain. Or I quite fancy going to Italy again, if I can get fit enough I'd like to do a walk of the Cinque Terre. Might manage to fit both in - one week in June, one in September... I don't like the heat enough to do something really physical in July or August.

TLS, Don't get me wrong, if our weather was 28 degrees in January, I would love nothing more than sitting in my own garden sipping a pims cocktail and listening to the charming reverberations of my screaming children! However, I do look forward to the lovely British summer, when it arrives in May and promptly leaves in June before Wimbledon.

    • I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?
    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
    • Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
    • interesting the police said "the car was in demand at the moment" what make/model is that?
