I'd just worked up the courage and have been given a last minute offer for free tickets for summat down on the south bank. Sorry BB, but I will make sure the next dwinkies is put in my diary once announced.


Have a pint of some lovely ale for me please someone. :)

Another drink-up, another hangover.. but if I must be hungover then this is the weather to do it. Shame I have to trek up to North London mind


Good to see every one both new and old. Err not old, I mean "established".. I always wonder what the newbies must make of us. Think some recruiting was done as well...

Just to say a huge thank you to Georgia for organising last night... I had an absolutely lovely time and it was great putting faces to names.

However I think newbies should be supplied with large supplies of paracaetomal (sp?) for the next morning... my head hurts alot.


Really, I am not usually that drunk.


Honest.

As a newbie who went to the drinks at the Gowlett last night - thank you to everyone for being so friendly and welcoming (and dare I say it - but also normal!)


We had a dutch courage pint and pizza outside before coming in


Cheers guys - will definitely be at the next one and Badger's pink drinks next week!

Back in South London now, so able to type properly. Aiming to head back out soon but SOMEONE can't handle late nights so will have to see what happens


Anyway, last night. The first drinks I've been to where we had EDF reserved signs out and so, obviously, no-one turned up. Or so it felt at 8ish when twas just a small 4-man band. But people arrived thick and fast and the whole reserved area became splendidly cosy


From the wonderful regulars (Bagpuss, Georgia, Mogs, LadyGooner, CitizenEd, Fear'n Boozin, AndrewD, Ant and more) to the Dorothys (Bellenden Belle, Jah Lush, Mikese22 and more) + the various partners and lurkers of this parish, everyone was in good form. I have probably overlooked some names there - feel free to remonstrate with me


We were also joined by Viv & Jamie from Hoopers bar which was a nice touch. As the planned destination for the next drink-up, they obviously want to check out what kind of damage we can do


As usual I spoke with some people too much (from their perspective) and others not enough, and once again the 1am last orders reminded me how weird it was we ever managed with 11pm


Several people took advantage of the fine pizzas - most of them did the civilised thing and removed themselves to a quieter table and used a knife and fork. I was less couth and just stuffed my gob - but I did offer some around


A fine venue, and some great new people I'm looking forward to the next one. I might even gatecrash the rainbow drinks next week

      Two wrongs might not make a right. But the two wrongs could at least be of equal value before we get too judgey    paying an estate agent to deal with all of the admin on my to have the estate agent not point out all of the admin  vs Deliberately hacking into an MPs email. And boasting about it (Badenoch)    as for throwing a local estate agent under the bus, when did local estate agents become the good guys?   doesn’t sound like estate agents are being thrown under a bus - they are fessing up. And Reeves doesn’t look to have done anything wrong  yet people will still believe the worst anyway    https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2025/oct/30/rachel-reeves-row-standards-adviser-looking-at-new-infomation?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other

      Harvey and Wheeler in Dulwich Village? Only one I know… How can they offer to apply and never did? Surely; whether they are managing the property or not and with tech been so advanced I would have thought they would have been a couple of e mails sent as a reminder or, is it the Landlord’s responsibility to apply… Rental Law/ Bill has just come  into force  - can’t remember if it was this week or last and have been to busy to read.. However, will as assume it is not individual councils but all councils. Came up on Which on line.. Good point Jen Jen Jen - sure some knowledgable person on here can throw more light than I.

      Does this mean then that anybody who rents out their home in East Dulwich needs one of these licenses? And does everyone of these landlords have one?
