Hi circir, I've been to just a couple of forum drinks so far and its usually pretty obvious by the size of the crowd who's in the forum - 30+ people is not unusual, so there's no need to sport red roses or such things! I'm sure you'll feel very welcome and enjoy the evening, I know I did on my first time. I look forward to meeting you there.

A large contingent of forumistas turned up at the plough this evening. The first people I met was Ladymuck and Bookworm who were both newbies to the drinks evening. We sat with Andrew Black the photographer, and Brum who was standing in for Georgia.

Michael Paleologous joined us and soon after that I made my excuses and left to try and make contact with my eldest, whom I expected to have arrived from her hols in the usa.


The whole plough was jumping due to the ED forum populace swelling the ranks, and a good night seemed a certainty.

YES, it was a GREAT evening - Bookworm, Brewski and I left at gone 11.30pm and things were still pretty lively inside. Thanks for being such a lovely chaperone Cheeky Monkey. BTW, I believe I owe both you and Brum a drink...so here's to the next EDF drinkies!

    • Hi, I accidentally drove off and left a red travel longchamp bag with various clothes / makeup in on Dovercourt Road earlier today... if anyone managed to pick it up please do let me know!  Nothing valuable is in it, just clothes and make-up that I'd love to get back if I can! 
    • Tickets were quite expensive...
    • What about Dulwich park? 
    • Looking at the areas which will be receiving funds, there seems to be a couple of pretty fundamental flaws with the scheme. In many of these areas, spend isn't migrating from high streets to online, there simply isn't any disposable income to migrate. No amount of tarting a place up is going to change the fact that these places are the poorest and most deprived in country - people simply have nothing to spend. Secondly, a lot of these areas no longer have an extant retail infrastructure to improve upon - it went donkey's years ago, along with the pubs. My childhood high street is getting a grant. Maybe they'll liven up Market Street by celebrating our notable locals - they could commission a Ricky Hatton mural, a statue of The Moors Murderers or a 'Walk of Shame' pavement for Harold Shipman's victims (it's quite a long street). But, whatever it is, I doubt it's going to show a decent return when the only businesses still trading are 'Bargain Booze' outlets, Bangladeshi takeaways, bookies and barbers.
