Marjorie - relax. As an injury-lawyer I have already taken the precaution of phoning the police, council, and the Health & Safety Executive to get clearance for the event. My colleagues were threatening to hand out business cards to anyone who fell over otherwise.


If you would like to PM me I can give you reference numbers and officials to talk to if you need reassurance.


Now... do all competitors have their mandatory safety equipment (hard hat, elbow & knee pads, bucket for vomitus) and please bring your insurance waivers with you, countersigned by your mothers on the day.


Good luck all.

My brother is a senior official at the Highways Agency and he has, as a favour, programmed in signals on the A2, A3, A20, A23 and other major arterial routes into South London, warning of likely disruption in the East Dulwich area. Local diversions will be in place, with Lordship Lane and Forest Hill Roads being one way for the duration of the event, and for 4 hours afterwards, to aid free through flow of traffic. Locals are advised to stock up on essentials as there will be no vehicular egress from the cordon during race hours.


At least someone is thinking of the needs of the Motorist.

Oh well done Ted. We forgot that last year and the chaos caused by a dozen joggers on the pavement to the traffic of SE London was negligible. But better safe than sorry. Unless you're an injury lawyer like me in which case sorry doesn't cut it and we'll give you 100% of your compensation.

Drinking in 2 places, travelling between the 2 on foot?! Outrageous behaviour. I'll have you know that my stag night organisation committee submitted a route plan with likely diversions 6 weeks before the event and allowed local residents a chance to comment. Have we done this? For shame.


And what about all those people standing along public highways and at the 2 pubs just, well, banging their hands together?! Noise pollution, might wake baby. Officer, officer...

Jeeesus! I have just thought - WHAT ABOUT THE ENVIRONMENT??


15 lardy people wobbling at some speed down the hill is bound to generate a huge CO2 footprint so creating a green-house micro climate in and around Barry Road.


Stop this now or I will report you to the Greens...


or Springwatch.

Don't worry Michael, your serious and important concerns have been addressed.


Most of the environmental impact of unfit tispy people running comes from methane produced through flatulence.

To combat this I will be distributing Shreddies before the race.*



*yes, I have waited a long time for an opportunity to post that link.

David Carnelli, Human Classical Statue, will be doing his "Manequin Piss" at the finishing line.


To be exact David will stood (wearing naught but a silken scarf tossed about his neck) on a pile of beer crates beside the finishing line. He will be proving a fluidic "Arch of Victory" for the runners, or at least the first few.


Please do not laugh at his shaving rash.

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
