"No one" & "Life" being key words here ?

Oh god now & sorry Santerme..( can't you come "home" ) I feel so guilty , even decadent......."Has the plague had many round your way.."


I mean how do you go on knowing everything you say "oh loved popping out for ten minutes into town ...blah blah met so & so...nipped into lah lah..." cuts into the heart as Santerme claws at the windows of his Dorchester rectory....8 whole miles from anywhere & probably cosetting the yellowed copy of The South london Press in the cat litter tray...."You made me do it..you.."


And I'm talking about my poncey choice of delectable curry houses.......Sozza Santerme ...but you made the ill choice of Porchester/Dorchester so get on with it...


I will not allow any long distance guilt bombs to ruin my curry, it was excellent.

It is true life moves at a temperate pace here....


However to assuage my need for a reminder of urbanite living, I am going to brave the Dorchester Carnival crowds (it can be tough out there), find somewhere to park and indulge in a Chinese buffet lunch.


Then I will, because it is a beautiful day, take a leisurely 20 minute drive to Abbotsbury watch the signets hatching and end up at either Chesil Beach, or West Bay reading a good novel.


Hardy country has it's little compensations.

Santerme:


Thursday: History Museum, Kensington, Kensington Park Gardens, Chelsea, Brixton.

Today: North or South Downs in West Sussex.

Monday: Beautiful local 300 acre meadows complete with Nature Reserve, gorgeous Lake and waterfalls and 50 different breeds of dogs.

Tuesday: Hampstead ( including "Heath" )...


Sun/Mon/Tues Weather permitting.


Every area has its compensations, but from half-a-mile out on the edge of London, I honesty feel its the ideal base for returning to the heart of London in 20-odd minutes, going into the heart of the Country in 20-odd minutes and enjoying the tranquillity of The Suburbs ( where most lights are out by 10.30 latest during the week)...

Well I have got my just desserts today, it's my youngest boys 5th birthday.....which is nice in it's self


We started planning a picnic in the park for a dozen people or so , well that was the plan & it worked very well last year.

Another friend who shares the same birthday suggested we double up the party ...Great idea......then another, so now we have a triple picnic party ( thats 40 odd kids )and around 30 adults....JOY...................OH BLO*DY YEAH



I know, you feel for me don't you..........really.


I do feel large measures coming on by 4.00pm



Grr

    • Hello! We are relocating abroad and so will be withdrawing our two children (ages 4 and 6) from St Dunstan’s College (Catford). If any family is considering enrolling children of a similar age, now would be an excellent opportunity—we’re required to pay full‑term fees unless the places are taken. Please get in touch if you’re interested or know someone who might be. Thank you!
    • Hi  I really thought I'd seen a more recent post on the forum about home education meet ups. I can't find it though. Hope some of these might provide leads. https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/137603-home-schooling-advice-anyone-wants-to-do-it-together/#comment-1092093 Very old post but group seems still to exist: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/92044-home-education-local-group/#comment-954837 You could try contacting this forum member: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/325368-classroom-support-for-home-education-community/#comment-1621064 Two of these left for right now: https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/events/event/1025-🌟-teens-11-try-painting-sculpture-street-art-at-holiday-workshops/
    • Thanks for your reply. I’ve subscribed to Ancestry a few times in the past but felt I wasn’t using it enough to warrant keeping up the subscription.    
    • Hi, I saw your post and just wanted to say that the incident you’re referring to did happen in the late 1980s at Dawson’s Heights. The person involved was named Carl Salawa, and he had just turned 18 years old at the time. Like you, I haven’t been able to find any news articles or official reports about it, If anyone remembers anything more about that time or incident, I’d really appreciate hearing about it. Thanks for sharing what you were told—it means a lot to know others remember.
