WTF - why is it so hard to find a pub in East Dulwich this afternoon showing the rugby world cup games on a decent size screen with the sound on! I get that there is football on too, but surely the pubs could find someway of ensuring that at least one place is doing the rugby games justice. Its the World Cup - the chance for the minnows to have a bite at the big boys - Japan beating South Africa being a wonderful example. We should be making the most of these games whilst we host the tournament.

Used to see the KCHRFU down the Bishop all the time.


And 6 Nations EDT used to be one of the big London pubs to watch

(was known as so on Wales rugby forums).

Its exactly that apathetic attitude to the biggest sporting event this country has hosted since the Olympics that annoys me. Yes, more people play & follow football, but maybe, just maybe we should just try to get behind this event, and all it brings, instead of telling people to "go to Putney".


We've got 2 international teams training in our area (Australia & Romania both at Dulwich college) and things like this:

going on. So, if it means I may need to miss a Crystal palace game in the pub one night, I'm quite happy to do so

    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. They're clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
