Hey people,

have any of you had any embarrassing incidents in ED (apart from the obvious drunken ones)?? the other day, I was in the newsagents opposite dulwich library & the skinny guy behind the counter made a quip at my expense..it wasn't even funny but a stoopid old customer started to roar with laughter at it..i left the shop totally embarrassed & vowed never to set foot in there again..well until i needed to renew my oyster card..

i can't remember it - i was in "flight or fight" mode but it really wasn't funny. it was made worse by the fact that, in all the confusion, I left my oyster card on the reader & he called me back to get it..:-$

Various incidents spring to mind on the 176 nightbus Andy but whilst looking for the toilet and walking in on my mate Steve's parents 69ing each other will always remain a firm favourite.


That actually happened I'm afraid and I think you'll all agree it's a 10 out of 10 on the old red face guage.

I always end up falling asleep on that bl**dy bus and ending up in that godforsaken penge or worse, on diversion to crystal palace...to make matters worse, i fell asleep on the bus last week, holding a full maccas coke & spilt it all over my jeans so it looked like i wet myself..


btw, If anyone sees a dorky guy ( possibly smelling/holding or mumbling about blue cocktails) asleep on the 176 as its going thru dulwich in the small hours on a friday nite, please wake him up at dulwich library...thanks!!

I think I was about 13 or 14 Daizie. Thank fully they were too caught up in the moment/act to notice me. I returned to his room in a state of shock but whilst leaning against the doorway to his room I mustered the strength to shreik "there's been a horrible accident, call a doctor".

I used to do that when I worked in TCR years ago, once I fell asleep and woke up during the return journey to Oxford Street at the bus stop just before the one I should have got off in the other direction. I would have freaked if I woke up in Oxford Street. That happened a lot, especially after a sesh. How does it go again, you get kicked off at Penge cross the road and wait for the but to turn round and get back on it again. Totaly nutts.

    • Its that time of year again, past Christmas day and late delayed cards are turning up. How late are your cards arriving ?  Last year I had one delivered 4 weeks late. Can that be beaten this year ? 
    • Sadly, a lot of businesses didn't invite reviews on the EDF at that time due to a number of "negative nellies" that would take delight in posting unfavourable comments, often despite never being to the business in question.  No matter how good the place was, some posters would find fault that wasn't there "don't lile the colour of the bidet set in the private bathroom, avocado 😅" Can hardly blame businesses at the time for not wanting reviews on here, thankfully that has mostly changed now.   
    • Was that the Hare Krishna place? I can't remember exactly where it was (or maybe still is) but it was somewhere around Oxford Street.
    • The "for sale" section on this forum lets people offer things for free or cheaply. And the "wanted" section let's people ask for things they want or need, for free or cheaply. There are also existing schemes like Freecycle, and also local  food banks. And there is (or was) a local scheme where you can bring things to be repaired free. I think it is/was based in Nunhead. Isn't that simpler than having a barter system? You might have something to give away, but the person who wants it might not have anything you want. Or have I misunderstood how it works? I can see that offering services free might not fit into existing schemes, but depending on what they were, what would happen if things went horribly wrong eg someone wrecked your house? Sorry if the above sounds very negative.
