Could be a sideways move.

A agree Quids - if the weather was lovely sunshine there would be no problem. The whole idea of moving to a Saturday was to give those with families a chance to enjoy the drinks when they might otherwise be looking after kiddies on a Friday evening. Overcast skies and a bit of rain doesnt make it a bad idea.

The idea is perfect and am glad that it was put forward. We enjoyed ourselves and it was lovely to meet some other forumite parents, (nice to meet you pickle and sanitygirl and your little ones) as well as catching up with regulars. Only sorry I couldn't stay longer.


I thought the weather was fine and my two were in t-shirts and loved running around the playground. That said others were in coats and scarves and shivering with hot toddies and cups of coffee - note to self, better check out my thyroids.


Hope everyone has a good time tonight. I won't be there alas.

Was lovely to meet some of you today, my two enjoyed themselves and it was nice to put some faces to names. Hope tonight goes well for those of you that make it - I'll do my best to come along to some drinks without the kids next time so I can have a proper conversation!
I met Georgia for the second time, Strawbs, Jaws, Raj, MsMacgabhan, and the forum's two princes Sean and the majestic Mockney who is a gentleman and a scholar. I was handing out autographs all over the shop and nearly got brained by a flying sofa. Apart from that some interesting chit chat but to be honest I'd be surprised if they could hear me over my yellow top.

    • Hi Sue, they were not local solicitors. Andrea’s was based in Wales and the other firms involved were large nationwide conveyancing companies (rather than conventional high street solicitors). I’m happy to advise clients and buyers privately on what I believe to be their shortcomings but I don’t think doing so in public on the forum would be appropriate, particularly as they are not locally based. My general advice would always be to steer clear of the big conveyancing companies as they are, in my experience, notoriously difficult to contact when the need arises and the case handler is often not a fully qualified solicitor and so issues have to be referred upwards to “technical teams” internally, which was part of the problem in Andrea’s chain.

    • A slightly vulnerable but hopeful post… Hi everyone, I’m a guy in my mid-thirties who’s recently moved back to London and East Dulwich (I previously lived here for many years before, so I know the area well). But if I’m honest, I’ve found the return a little tough. Most of my close friends have moved out of London to start families — totally understandable — but it’s left me feeling a bit adrift and not quite sure how to make new connections again. Work has taken up a huge chunk of my life in recent years, and I’ve definitely let hobbies, interests and a proper social life fall by the wayside. I feel like I went from a fun social life in my 20’s to suddenly blinking and realising things had gone a bit er…quiet. So, I’m trying to redress the balance a bit — mainly so myself and my partner don’t murder each other 😂, and just to meet some new local faces. I was wondering: is anyone else in a similar boat? And would there be any interest in starting a relaxed, low-key local social group? Could be a casual pub meet, sports, park hangouts, live comedy nights — open to ideas!  I’m happy to do the organising/admin side of things — just wanted to put it out there and see if there’s any appetite. I’ll gauge interest and take it from there.  If you’d prefer not to reply publicly, feel free to drop me a DM.  Cheers all! 👋
    • It's Inner London. You could move somewhere else?
    • They are people.  That's how people often behave.
