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.

    • But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
    • Oh, I didn't know that! I didn't move here till 1991 (I think) but the NCR incarnation must have been around that time? Unless my failing memory is even worse than I thought it was, sob.
    • I just googled, and apparently there's another branch of the Soho Street Govinda's  in Theobald's Road. I had no idea.
    • yes that's the one!  it was (nearly) harmless fun to get the un-initiated to put the coin in for you i also seem to remember that the Hanway Street place was called Govinda's.  it was vegetarian, vegan even - but it was much more palatable fare than the standard Hare Krishna stuff.  I also used to go tot he Indian Y - which I remmber discussing on the EDF some eyars ago.  And then the first Wagamama opened off Russell Street
