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!

      Excellent Christmas meal at Franklins!

      Who was Diana Rayworth, when 'resting from acting'. Her successful career was very sadly cut short following a devastating accident.

      thanks Jenijenjen and all - yes, i remember walking or taking the bus from the elephant (where i was working) to Camberwell to get there.  I think Tim - who's still at Franklin's -  was there in those days, and the woman who ran the cafe!  Other food places that i remember fondly are the ones in Neal's Yard (with the Hunkin sculpture that you could put a coin in ) and the basement lunch place at the Tottenham Court Road junction with Hanway Street...

      Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x

      Be careful in local shops

      By Sue · Posted

      People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
