Thanks everyone who turned up, yes it was wet but we were between the beer tent and the chilli stall and in a nice big tent so everyone was happy and dry(ish). Big thank you to my lovely assistant who helped all weekend and made it possible. Nice one to Elusive Wax who were opposites providing the good tunes and thanks to the organisers, Felicity and Angela for sorting it all out. I'm going to stop there as it's getting like an Oscar speech.


It was great to meet people who enjoy this site and find it beneficial, it was also good to meet people who find it annoying but I have to admit I prefer meeting the former. If you didn't make it on Sunday and have any comments or suggestions about the site please do let us know, either send me a Private Message or click the 'Email the Forum' link at the bottom of every page.


There are some of the classic East Dulwich postcards left over, I'm going to try and get them into a local shop where they will be available (with a discount if you mention the forum), I'll post a new thread when that happens.

Sean is that because you forced others to try it and thought it was highly amusing when their eyes watered! Mind you I did see that your had purchased several bottles, god himself only knows what you are going to do with them


Yes good effort Mark, another winner.

    • According to what I can see online, Dynamic Vines and Cave de Bruno sell totally different kinds of wine to each other.  Dynamic Vines  "work with independent winemakers who produce outstanding wine using sustainable practices in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar".  Cave de Bruno specialises in French wines and spirits from small independent producers. So two different USPs, and no doubt two different but overlapping customer bases who can afford these wines. Probably different again to the people mainly  shopping for wine at Majestic or the Co op. On the other hand, the two empanada shops appear on the face of it to be selling virtually identical products. But time will tell, won't it? Let's see how they are both doing in - say - a couple of years' time. Impossible, of course, to compare that with how they would have done if there had been only one of them. I just feel more  sorry for the original one than for  the one which can apparently already afford to have a number of shops in places like Mayfair and Highgate.
    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. These Argentinian cornish pasties are clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
