Good Morning East Dulwich Campers


So I was watching that new fangled tele-visual receiver late last night, well past the time that Mrs Miggings (The Landlady to you) had drunk her Cocoa and gone to bed, and lo upon the phosphorous green screen there was a bunch of young girls dressed in swimming costumes that didn't leave much to the imagination, I tell you I have seen more material on my KK monogrammed handkerchief, strutting around telling me to send them a message via some weird and wonderful device called TEXT and using a number with only 5 digits in it!!!


Now I have to say, I believe that the telephonic exchange does allow you to omit the area code from a number so that has allowed me to conclude that with only 5 digits to dial then these young harlots must live locally to East Dulwich.


But I digress from my query, the ladies in question were all rather pretty, or appeared that way after my evening G&T, and I was wondering if any attractive young lady of marrying age would actually need to advertise her availability via this service or if in fact the young ladies that do are more, how shall I say without offending anyone .. oh yes as Mrs Miggings 12 year old son is so find of expressing “Mingers” (what a distasteful child young Cyril is)


So I ask the Gentlefolk of East Dulwich, have you ever called one of these numbers, or even advertised your availability as a young woman of marrying age via the service, and if so what was your experience of the person at the other end of the telephonic conversation and did they look like the young ladies on the screen or does Young Cyrils description fit them rather nicely?

I have to admit that as these services (according to the small print on screen) cost more then a vodka and Tonic at the EDT per message, then why on earth people don't just go to the pub and buy random people of the opposite sex a drink, after all that is about as likely to get a date as using a premium rate text service I expect.

    • Never understood why there are not more speed cameras on Lordship Lane and the surrounding area - not sure what happened here exactly, but given the damage to the front of the vehicle as a result of the impact of the traffic light, it seems very unlikely that this person was driving slowly.
    • I am always really surprised by the glowing reviews of Franklins. Not sure whether it was once very good, and so it is just somewhere that is now remembered as that and thought of fondly by those who have known it since its opening all those years ago? As someone who has lived in the area for a few years now, and having tried it a few times (mostly as a result of the positive reviews), I have always been pretty disappointed. The food has always been average for the price point, and last time we visited we waited about 40 minutes to place an order. Hopefully whoever buys it can make improvements - it would be great to have a reliable pub on the lane that serves good food (similar to the Kerfield or Camberwell Arms, etc.)!
    • I will buy you a frothy coffee from anywhere you like on Lordship Lane if that happens. Most of these costs never get recovered from the drivers that caused them. The photo shows a car that's been left on the zigzags protecting the crossing. Pedestrians crossing East to West and drivers heading South won't see each other until the pedestrians are in the road. That is a dangerous position to leave a car in. (I don't know if it's stil there, obviously).
    • Seems a pretty dangerous position to me - apart from getting in the way of pedestrians trying to cross the road large vehicles heading south have to edge into the oncoming traffic lane to get past. I've got a normal-sized car and had to squeeze through a gap the other day.
