Greetings Dulwichites


I'm planning an occasional club night for boys and girls who are on the right side of 40 (that's upwards of). We're aiming to play you back through your adolescence and sparkly youth with a soundtrack of synth pop (OMD, Human League, Depeche Mode), post-punk (Gang of Four, Echo and the Bunnymen, the Pop Group), ska (Specials etc) dub (Mark Stewart, On-U Sound) rave (the Prodigy etc) and some glittering New Pop (Simple Minds, ABC, Madonna) but always on the right side of cheesy and with no irony intended whatsoever. I'll be working in related visuals and various flavours of dry ice.The preferred venue would be the crypt under St. Giles Church (where you can find the jazz club on a Friday).


What I would love to find out from you Dulwichites is if you would go to such a club night? Considering childcare, the general ravages of time etc, if it ran 8pm to 1am with a bar and food and had more of a music club atmosphere than a mega-club atmosphere? Conversely, I'd be interested to know why you wouldn't go.


Looking forward to your responses.


Paul

Ah, you're probably right. I was just there to check it out as a potential gig venue, but didn't realise there was more hidden away.

I'm speaking in terms of the forum. I'm sure he hasn't shuffled off yet.

    • I've used just about all the locally available supermarkets for deliveries over the years, and I now  use Waitrose for deliveries, for various reasons. They have a good range of the things I eat, their food is good quality and their "essentials" range is generally good value (except the tissues, which suddenly became so thin as to disintegrate immediately. I was mainly buying them for the nice plain boxes, so now I just put other tissues into the old Waitrose boxes 🤣) It is very rare for something I've ordered to not be available on the day. Their delivery drivers  are genuinely friendly and helpful. Their customer service is very good. On the rare occasions I've had issues, they have refunded me without quibbling. They often have special deals on some of the things I buy often, so I stock up when they are cheaper. I do occasionally compare prices with other supermarkets, and overall I really don't think Waitrose is more expensive, but obviously they might be for things I don't personally buy. I absolutely hate Sainsbury's, would use Lidl for some things but they don't deliver, Iceland has a very small range of things I eat, and I can't remember why I don't use Tesco or Asda any more. I recently checked out Ocado because there was some offer which seemed good value, but they just didn't have enough things I wanted to buy to make it worth using the offer. M&S don't deliver ( to the best of my knowledge) but in any case they seem to be still badly suffering from the recent hack into their system. Apologies, I have just remembered this thread is about shopping at actual physical stores, but probably many of the issues are the same.
    • Since I am of a certain vintage now, not sure if what I am going to suggest is even still around but here goes… use to be able to buy “dummy/mock papers on line and also had mini synopsis of Shakespeare plays specifically covering students wanting to gain a better understanding of play before taking mocks/ exams. Only know this as many many moons ago, struggled with English Literature and Language and this was the avenue-my parents went down. Also was at this point in my life, educated abroad as part of my fathers job.  
    • Love your comment about “shoehorned” - put a smile on my face..! As for comment about “Little Waitrose” ummmm - never really thought about it. Personally, could not care less. But guess Sainsbury Local and Tesco Express are to you more acceptable.. Ultimately, when I think about it, I actually don’t care what they call themselves - been lured by partially branding and partially convenience and what they offer in groceries.
