giddygecko Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Sean, no worries with the area more the housemates I moved in with, but is all ok now I have been rescued by a friend of a friend at work who is letting me lodge at the greener end of Barry Road (Uplands). He is a very noice man & I'm sure I will be happier here.Cheers GG Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/676-gay-girlies/page/2/#findComment-17593 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikster Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Hiya Badger, GG and any other gay girlieI spoke to Mumra and she said there was a message on the forum about gay girlies and I thought it was my duty to join in the thread! My girlie CB and I met and fell in love in East Dulwich (we were teachers in the same school) and we moved here 3 years ago this summer. We've grown to love the Rye Hotel and now its sister pub in Gypsy Hill, the Mansion. We also like Black Cherry and I'm a huge fan of Green and Blues. I have to say though that I love East Dulwich and I love the places I hang out but I think it can be hard sometimes to find somewhere where you would love to snog your girlie publcally or give her the odd knee squeeze. Maybe us skirtlifters should unite and think of ways how we could create some social events for the lesbian community here in ED? I am sure that we could find a monthly venue somewhere on LL to hold a girlie night where we can impress our other gay friends that the ED lesbians are out and proud! Would be happy to help set up anything. Let me know your thoughts!Cheers,NiksterP.S. Anyhoohar, well done Badger and GG in coming to ED. I am sure you'll find it a great place to live :)-D Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/676-gay-girlies/page/2/#findComment-17603 Share on other sites More sharing options...
giddygecko Posted May 21, 2007 Share Posted May 21, 2007 Cheers Nikster thats sounds like a cunning plan to me... Hmmmmm as a newbie to ED obviously I have no suggestions other than the Rye Hotel, however I a keen to explore the area as my girlie is coming over from Australia in just under 4 weeks time & it would be good to know a few places to take her for a gay friendly meal or lil drinkie.It would be great to meet up with you & Badger & any other "girlies" in the area. Good idea NiksterCheers GG Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/676-gay-girlies/page/2/#findComment-17607 Share on other sites More sharing options...
badger Posted May 21, 2007 Author Share Posted May 21, 2007 wow - just checked in and can't believe this thread is still going... honestly believed it would be buried on page 10 behind a load of posts about WI cake-baking activities... just shows what I know :))Thanks Nikster and GG - it would be great to meet up and start a merry gang. Sounds like James and Mikese22 may be wannabe gay girles as well?? I suppose we should kickstart things and decide a time & place. Rye Hotel? Haven't been yet. Mikese22 has been and was apparently impressed by the (male) talent :) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/676-gay-girlies/page/2/#findComment-17617 Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 No offence intended GG, I was just being silly! Think the idea of a gay night somewhere is a good one though.

giddygecko Posted May 22, 2007 Share Posted May 22, 2007 ;-) No offence taken, but as new to the area & the forum I dont want to go getting myself a reputation before I have even begun...

Nikster Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Hiya gang,Meeting up at the Rye hotel sounds indeed like a merry plan. Good food, beer and a mere stroll across the Rye.I'm on holiday next week but will be back the week beginning the 4th June. So lets meet for a quick half and fly the rainbow flag!!Cheers,Nikster Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/676-gay-girlies/page/2/#findComment-17804 Share on other sites More sharing options...
giddygecko Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 :)) Sounds good to me, any night but Weds is good for me. I shall spike my hair & dig up appropriate attire ?? It would be great to meet some "locals" & please dont go all Roysden Vasey on me & say "You're not from round here, this is a local pub, for local people" :-S ;-)Have a great holiday Nik, & Badger you coming along?Cheers GG Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/676-gay-girlies/page/2/#findComment-17807 Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanMacGabhann Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 There are always nervous looking newbies - it was me 2 drink ups ago and several others at the last one - and we all came back so a pretty friendly bunchMike & Georgia are organising the next one - it's at The Gowlett pub just off Goose Green approx - know it?

mattindulwich18 Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 As I said in a previous posting I have lived here six months and I dont know any other gay lads I am getting bored of Soho and Vauxhall.Where do all you East Dulwich gay lads hang out??

James Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Hello MattWhere all the gay lads in East D hang out is indeed a bit of a mystery. There must be plenty of them...(?)Me and my boyfriend like the Rye Bar & Grill next to Peckham Rye, which is gay-owned and seems to get quite a mixed crowd.

mattindulwich18 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Maybe I should check that one out then, its not full of couples though? Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/676-gay-girlies/page/2/#findComment-18681 Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Not necessarily - it's a bit unpredictable. I was in there one night and it seemed to be 60% gay men, 40% lesbians, some couples... other times it can be mostly straight.If you're on the pull but are sick of Soho and Vauxhall I recommend getting the 185 to the bottom of Lewisham high street and going to Stonewalls. It's like a tacky provincial gay bar, very unpretentious, good for a laugh. Hopefully we'll get a decent laid-back gay pub in East D soon...

mattindulwich18 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 I am not looking for sex just local guys who I may have something in common with. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/676-gay-girlies/page/2/#findComment-18695 Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Actually I met my partner in a nightclub and we've been together for 3 years so it is possible to get more than just sex from a tacky night out!Maybe this forum should start some kind of lonely hearts/meeting friends & like-minded people section.

mattindulwich18 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Maybe I should pop into the Rye one evening and just go for it!! Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/676-gay-girlies/page/2/#findComment-18712 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keef Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Just a suggestion, why don't you guys go along to the Gowlett on Friday for the EDF drinks. Then, if you all get on, you can arrange to have your own regular "rainbow" (?!?!?!?) drinks.... Seems to me to be the simplist way to meet other local gay people...There seem to be quite a lot of gay people in Dulwich, and from what's been said on here (on more than one occasion), there's nowhere local to go. Plus, there are probably those people who read, but don't want to post on here... So, arranging meet ups would seem to be a really nice idea.Anyway, what do I know, I'll shut up now :-$ Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/676-gay-girlies/page/2/#findComment-18730 Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeanMacGabhann Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 sage advise Mr KeefIf even half the recently joined people turn up on Friday it could be the busiest night yet Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/676-gay-girlies/page/2/#findComment-18731 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattindulwich18 Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 I had no idea there was these events in East Dulwich!!! Rainbow??

Beej Posted May 29, 2007 Share Posted May 29, 2007 Hey pink people - Can we join you?? my boyfriend James and I live on Crystal Palace Road and have been East Dulwich locals for several years now. What do gay people do here? Generally stay in and entertain at home or else mix with the straights! But yes, a rainbow night is a much needed must - details please!
