Right, I take after my mum being that I'm incredibly nosey and I'm always keen to find out who I'm talking to on the forum, i.e meticulously studying the forum pics and other routes of investigation (I don't mean to boast but I'm a natural detective). Anyway, seeing as Forest hill is very boring in relation to watering holes etc I often go for drink on Lordship lane and use the shops there as well. Sometimes I see people who I recognize from my investigations. I've seen Quids but he was with family I think, I've seen Jah lush but I didn't have my gum shield handy, Dulwichmum but she was with family. I've met Sean and Georgia (Georgia was utterly star struck) Sean was a little bit surprised. Would you find it rude or a bit weird if I came up and said hello?


I'm afraid the drinks option is out of the queston at the moment as I have to consider my immediate physical safety. Perhaps one day though.

Put it this way BBW, if you came up to me and said "Hello thickie I'm BBW" I would not think it weird, but if you were to come up and say "Hello I'm BBW" now that would be a bit oddball. However I'd buy you a drink, I really doubt you'd get attacked physicaly but the verbal asault could make you feel slightly uncomfortable if you have wound anybody up, but as I know your online personna I doubt you have ever done anything like that so you'd be alright at a forum drinks.

Well I'm brave, so if you see a woman carrying a motorcycle helmet, 5ft 8, early 20's, long thick blonde hair, and very slim, say hello to her, and tell her how much you admire her and love how she contributes to East Dulwich life.


Then report back here what happened, because I don't look anything like that.

I'm 5ft 4 and carrying a half face helmet with messy dyed blonde hair (every day's a bad hair day when you're a biker) and you can't tell how skinny or fat I am because it's all stuffed in a big motorcycle jacket!

Lol, it'll be pretty funny if a random stranger came up n said hi to me esp if they recognised me as Andystar..

I've had a funny 2 weeks where at least ten random work people with whom I've never chatted to before, have been coming up and saying hi & chatting with me, like we were mates..It really baffled me for a while, then my work colleague told me that I got totally smashed on blue cocktails the friday before & was chatting to everyone.

I was on the lane today with my 2 daughters but saw noone wolflike. I've have never made it to an EDF drink so everyone on the EDF is completely anonymous to me, and will be until the June drinks at least.


I assume if you gals recognised BBW then thats because he has been to an EDF drinks rathar then looking more wolflike than the other punters...

    • I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?
    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
    • Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
    • interesting the police said "the car was in demand at the moment" what make/model is that?
