I said this five thousand odd posts ago:


Oh no, oh no, oh no. They haven't buggered the Clock House up have they?!?!?!?!? It used to be the best pub in East Dulwich although I have not had the chance to visit it in the last 8 months.


2 years ago I would go in for lunch at least twice a week for the steak and kidney pie which was quite litterally the best steak and kidney from a pub I have ever had.


What have they done to it? What brewery is running it now? I used to be Youngs.

... I leapt in and started a thread straight off as well:


castaway - East Dulwich contestant

Posted by: buggie 07 March, 2007 08:53


wasn't planning on watching it, but in the paper today turns out one of the contestents is ED-ish (my fave from the 'What are we thread'!!).


Might be cos I've just been doing a night shift and so need my bed, but I thought that was quite exciting.


Hello to all btw - been lurking since the w/e so thought I should register!! :))



thought I'd held out longer lurking before posting!!

I unknowingly lied.. I did what sean said and listed my posts and came up with the below, quite boring really..

HI there


My partner and I would love to come along!! Is it safe to rock up on the night and expect there will be tickets left or is there a way I can reserve 2?


thanks

"Thats me - down with the Thinifers!!" - 30/1/07


In response to a post from Dulwichmum - inevitably.


Shortly after that there were a series of posts which started to form the first drinks - ah happy days.


Do us old stagers get a long service medal?

Aside from asking about a new flat my first post was concerning the perennial scourge of East Dulwich..... dangerous dogs!


I apologise if this has been mentioned in the previous five pages (it would have taken some while to get through it all and heard the same arguments over and over) but I would like to raise an issue that is aside from the rights and wrongs of dog ownership and it's "dangers".


Peckham Rye, which I assume would be covered by this ban, is a common i.e. a piece of common land. This entitles the surrounding community to have certain entitlements. Traditionally these have taken the form of being allowed to take their animals to graze (we're talking sheep and cattle rather than poodles I imagine), the right to fish, the right to remove sods of turf and limited amounts of wood.


Incidently, if you were able to erect it in a day and set up a hearth you could have your home on a common without contravening planning law but if all of this applies to the land I would think Southwark council would have some trouble passing a by-law ensuring all animals were to be kept on leads.


I would think taking a herd of sheep down to graze on the Rye would highlight the ridiculousness of the councils position. Parks are a different matter however, and the council are well within their rights to issue any edict on park behaviour without consultation or legal amendment.


God I sound like a bloody sanctimonious old git..... ahhh good times!

    • This is the point, this is an increasingly large scale event in the wrong location. 
    • So Boris Johnson goes on an unhinged rant about the deal using violent gimp imagery (an image repeated by other brexiteers), and I comment on it but it’s MY language you are policing? how come it’s not Johnson and his language you  are commenting on? 
    • Is there anyone who does face painting who would be available to come to a children’s party next Sunday 25 May from 11-12ish? It’s a Frozen theme- about 10 kids or so. Please get in touch with more details and an idea of price if so. Many thanks 
    • Nope that concern predates the Jerk festival.  But I am talking about when I first moved to SE London and some locals complained that the nice music was too loud. Separately some people are still moaning about the Jerk festival,  Felt some comments were (casual) racist, but that is a different subject matter. That day was great,  A victim of its own success. A kin to Fatboy Slim playing a free festival on Brighton beach, tens of thousands went but it took a long long time to clean up.
