There is some absolute gold in the comments section. My favourite: "Spot on churchy the powers that be are afraid of you because all the grannies love you".


A close runner up was: "Seems to me, Charlotte, that you have more balls than do your detractors. And, being a lass, that?s a scrotal burden you?re not encumbered with."

'Absolute gold'? You reckon? Low standards, I guess, Loz. They're piss-poor. Cringeworthy. The second one doesn't even make any sense, no matter how many times you read it.


Never ceases to amaze me - the level of basic misogyny meted-out to largely harmless female targets who stick dare to their head above the parapet. Doesn't matter if they're ugly, stunning, razor sharp, a bit dim, have a doctorate or one CSE, common as muck or dead posh, written fifty books or one the first one.. one things's for sure: there will always be a load of arseholes lining-up to tell them to get back in their box, love.

Erm, yes. Piss-poor and cringeworthy are why they are 'gold'. The first one didn't make a lot of sense, either.


You're the last person I thought I'd have to explain that to.

Considering your baiting of the "largely harmless" Louisa last week, you might be on a bit of dodgy ground there, *Bob*.

I'm with Otta. I like that Church is fighting her corner. And some women ARE given a raw deal for having opinions. Is that sexism? Misogyny? (that word always seems to get the most guilty of men riled up). At the end of the day she has an opinion. We may agree with it, we may not, but sneering because of her background or gender isn't clever. Like I said before, I like her style.

I hope it's not because she is a bit Futurama Welshie


It's too easy to laugh at the intensity/excitability/passion

sometimes but it is a trait sorry to say and it's so nice

that she does seem to care :)

      Excellent Christmas meal at Franklins!

      By civilservant · Posted

      thanks Jenijenjen and all - yes, i remember walking or taking the bus from the elephant (where i was working) to Camberwell to get there.  I think Tim - who's still at Franklin's -  was there in those days, and the woman who ran the cafe!  Other food places that i remember fondly are the ones in Neal's Yard (with the Hunkin sculpture that you could put a coin in ) and the basement lunch place at the Tottenham Court Road junction with Hanway Street...

      Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x

      Be careful in local shops

      By Sue · Posted

      People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.

      Adapted not forced.  As have numerous species around the world.  Sort of thing that Attenborough features.  Domestic dogs another good example - hung around communities for food and then we become the leader of the pack.  Not sure how long it will take foxes to domesticate, but some will be well on their way.    Raccoons also on the way https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j8j48e5z2o
