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.

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!!

"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!

      Vet recommendation

      By NewWave · Posted

      I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.

      Be careful in local shops

      By bonaome · Posted

      In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.

      Bitey Fox.

      By SophieA · Posted

      There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can.
