Meeting new people in Dulwich

[Tootsmonkey]

Hi all,

Myself and my sister are new to the area and was wondering if there is a group set up to meet new people. Whether a curry club, book or general catch up in one of the pubs on Lordship Lane.

We are really enjoying living in Dulwich but to have a group of mates in the area would put the icing on the cake.

O may be a cake club te he

Look forward to your response

Thanks guys

Hi Tootsmonkey..

There is indeed a Curry Club. It celebrated it's 8th Anniversary in Jan 2015.

We generally meet on the first Thursday of each month and go to one of the many local

Indian restaurants. We usually meet a pub near to the Restaurant an hour or so before we eat

which is usually at 8.00pm.

Numbers vary but at our last meeting last Thursday we had 12 people and went to The Curry Cabin.

Its not actually a club as such. There is no membership and anyone / everyone is welcome to along.

It would be lovely to see you there.

Welcome!

If you are into fitness British Military Fitness in Dulwich Park or Peckham Rye is a great way to meet new people.

I've been going a few years and have got to know some great people.

Also there is Park Run http://www.parkrun.org.uk/

A great way to combine with the curry Club I reckon.

You are really welcome to come to Film Club on 31st Jan!

We meet for drinks in the Rye pub and go to the plex for a ?4.99 film and then back to the pub again. There are a group of regulars, but new people come each time.

Many good friends have been made with lots of socialising in between.

Have a look for ED Film Club in what's on section.

If you like singing, there are a number of choirs in the area.

Also Nyge and I run a Singaround once a month at The Old Nun's Head :)

It's always very friendly, with a mix of people who have been before and people who haven't, and you'd soon get to know people. There's all ages from eighteen (sometimes younger) to over sixty (that's me :)) )

Although we're basically a folk club at heart, anybody can sing anything at the Singaround (and they do!) - and you don't have to sing, you can just come and listen if you want.

It's on a Sunday night, starts at 7.30pm and it's free entry with a voluntary donation at the interval.

[laura92]

Is anyone up for the quiz tomorrow night at the great exhibition? Think it starts at 8, let us know and we can book a team :)

I've been going to the Wednesday night book club that meets in The Clockhouse. It's a really friendly group and it's next meeting is 11th Feb.

Also there's a group that meets up on Saturday at 10am in Peckham Rye to exercise, there's no cost, it's really friendly and a mix of abilities. We meet out the front of Cafe on the Rye and go there after for a coffee to recover.
