Just you wait, if it continues at this rate it's bound to split off into an alternative universe where the Copenhagen Interpretation is ditched for the East Dulwich Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics and we'll be rich and famous while the lounge lizards are left holding their dicks :)

BBW - you are quiet tonight - get back in the mix. Never take a criticism to heart. Get posting.

What dilemma? There is no dilemma.


It's simple really. The Forum is for everyone to give their tuppence-worth on any subject, whatever the mood - informative, witty, sarcastic, serious etc - and the categories for you to express yourself have recently been increased.


If I thought The Drawing Room was elitist I wouldn't go there. If someone knows more about a topic than me (or pretends to) I'll learn from them or ignore them.


The 20 or so people on this thread, as witty and vocal as you are, are not self-appointed representatives of the Forum as a whole. Join in or shut up. Simple.

Well, having at first used the Drawing Room for the purpose of annoying those who are cleverer than myself by posting silly one-liners, I have to say that, having discovered some really interesting threads, I am now a fan. Also, I like the way the "Chair" sits back and only really intervenes where absolutely necessary.

Sorry, I'm interrupting which is rude, but I have just started reading this thread, or possibly re-reading as my memory is shot to pieces, and I am on about page one :) and I just so agree with Moos' post I had to say so.


Apologies again - as you were :)

    • I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?
    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
    • Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
    • interesting the police said "the car was in demand at the moment" what make/model is that?
