When at a roundabout, driving a car, and the person you've given way to (as per the road rules), waves a thank you as if you've done them a favour.


This has happened so many times in the last week I've lost count (I live right by a mini roundabout). I'm just following the rules, don't thank me!

Completely appreciate that politeness is a good thing, that's why I recognise my rage as being irrational :)


I have long since given up on anyone going straight down Underhill Rd through the roundabout giving way to me.


I still find oranges cause me rage, but I probably mentioned that back on page 2.

Trip to the theatre ruined by people yakking and troughing. Friday night audience come up to town for the evening, determined to get their money's worth, laughing at everything regardless of whether funny or not. Seats clearly not designed for 21st century fat people. No 12 bus home next to man with stinking MacDonalds and drunk people with amusing ringtones. Wish I'd stayed stayed at work.
people that insist on wearing a hoodie with the hood up and sunglasses on a hot summers day!!!!! Sunglasses fair enough, but unless you suffer with a medical condition which requires an individual to dress accordingly what's with the hoodie, what's your excuse? Is it a new hipster craze?

Surprising the amount of people that do that, used to drive me mad when I used to watch my son play for the youth side 5 years ago.

When my son played for the under age teams what drove me mad was kids talking about headering the ball. What the hell is headering? Did your son play for DH prior to the youth team PD? Mine one is 23 now. Stopped playing @ U14's

Indeed, the phrase is "heading". Clearly some of those using the headering term have been listening to too many pundits, god help them. My son is also now 23, he played for them until he was 18, he was managed by a guy called Ian, during his last season they won the London cup 5- 1. There was a lot of politics going on around that time, ground sharing with Fisher and all sorts, financial shenanigans. When the lads got to the end of that season they were all released as they were too old and none were taken on by the then manager, again political. Very sad.

When have I done that? Think I've been known to refer to going to a match as "going to the hamlets" but I don't think I've ever called them Dulwich Hamlets and if I did it was an error.

I dunno, all these johnnie-come-latelies, popping in for the first time since 1846 now there's a sniff of success in the air.


Bloody glory hunters!!!

    • Re Day One, £52 for a short hair cut (cut & styling) and £72 for a long hair cut (cut & styling) which I believe is below the ears.  £38 for a blow dry which doesn’t appear to be included in the cut price as it’s not mentioned.  £15 for a fringe tidy.      I remember being startled to be charged separately for a blow dry by the salon that used to be in Melbourne Grove but is now closed down.  I was asked if I wanted a blow dry after the cut and highlights and said yes, but wasn’t told that I would be charged separately.  Only found out when I went to pay the bill.    Was offered a voucher on a further appointment.    De.Salon which used to be Cut-Throat in Peckham (Choumert Rd and Brixton) charge from £45 for a Short haircut that finishes by the ears.  They charge from £40 for any haircut that finishes below the jawline.  Their prices include a blow dry.  But if you have thick hair they charge an extra £15 for every additional 15 minutes for cutting.     I had my hair cut there before the name change.  I don’t understand the from part of the price. Had a look at the Blue Tit pricing which is very complicated. They charge depending on the stylist’s  experience.  Crab Salad in Peckham  -  short hair cut above the ear - from £69.    Long hair Cut below the ear from £80. Blow dry not mentioned as being included in the cut but is priced at £55 I noticed that Kuki charge different prices for men and women.  Doesn’t seem right if a woman has short hair and a man has long hair.   I used to go to a great salon in NW London  that charged the same price for men and women and stopped going when they upped their prices for women.  
    • BIAB is supposed to be less damaging to the nails than Shellac. It stands for Builder in a Bottle. 
    • I have been training at the hub for just over one year. I really enjoy the variety of training offered and the quality of the instructors. Very effective group classes and enjoyable in the open air! A very welcoming place which makes a fitmess journey pleasant!  
    • We're are just about to get ready for sale, a 2 bed flat, very close to Peckham Rye park.  It has been rented out for sometime, so is in need of some TLC for it to look its best, before it goes on the market.  Would be interested to know others thoughts on whether its best to just have the place painted completely white throughout, probably with new grey flooring, or if it might be more appealing to add some colour/interest (nothing too drastic), perhaps something alittle 'warmer', with some nice (potentially dark) feature walls maybe? Wondered whether the days of going completely white might now have passed ..... It might be useful to know that its not a period or conversion property, but rather a flat in a private purpose built block.
