following on from my last topic about peckham rye history 70s and 80s

does anyone have and memories of the ta hall during this time?

once a year they booked a coach and we all went on our annual daoy out to margate or hastings.

does anyone remember the childrens band called the mimettes??

was darts nights tues and pool night thurs?

does anyone remember the disco on a sat night ran by jane and donna early 80s?

or the youth club were we painted murals on the small back room walls?

the sports day they held every summer, were we did sack races egg and spoon races etc

yes i remember the mimettes, i was in it we use to travel around pubs and social clubs raising money for charity, we done alot of funraising for kings college hospital, such fun times! My cousin has got video footage of it somewhere, my grandad and dad used the club every friday night to play cards and did so up untill around 12 years ago when they moved out of the area. Not much goes on there these days which is quite a shame. The day trips still occur once a year but not much of a turnout.

omg never thought id find another mimette what is your name and what songs did you do? would love some video if you can send it i have photos i can share.

what was your grandad and dads name? have a feeling i will know them if we were both in the mimettes

    • So I've done a little more research into the current use of the word, I hadn't realised it had latterly been used to describe anti Muslim feelings. Still don't like the use of the word. These are horrible times and am fearful for the future.
    • Oh I didn't realised Starmer had used the word. I don't mean they are stirring up division between themselves (ie between Reform and Greens), I mean they are stoking division within communities, and stirring up racial prejudice and religious discrimination. That is sectarianism, in my view. 
    • Just to repeat the news I was given – it's not being converted into a pub. As far as I know, there's no intention of dumbing down their restaurant offering.  Although as others have pointed out, Camberwell has two pubs – The Camberwell Arms and now the Michelin-starred Kerfield Arms – with excellent food. The Palmerston used to be the only pub in ED that was of such quality, but sadly no longer IMHO. 
    • The country is in a real state.  What worries me about the Greens is encouraging migration and openly offering benefits to all with visas.  Where is the money for that coming from?  As if there is spare money, as if there is growth. Where I their holistic manifesto, ensuring funds are available and this is sustainable, and regulated? Incredibly dangerous and idealistic
