well that was a lovely evening with the lads so thanks keef for suggesting this little foray, I have to say I am a little bleary eyed this morning though, perhaps I was a little bit weak when offered the fourth pint and the shot! Still small price to pay for some very interesting and lively chat about kids and great to meet some very cool people in the area. Now off to get steamy with a deseperate housewife!(well desperate to have no wall paper in the spare room):)) lets do it again soonish not too soon though I'm a bit too lightweight for that!!


thanks and hugs to all that made it!!

Hi, there's a Dad's drop-in session at Brockwell Park 1 o clock club on a Saturday morning, it's a really nice spacious club with a garden. I haven't been to this session, but it's apparently quite popular.


You could also come along to the new 'Bumps n Babes' group which is starting on 12th October in Goose Green Community Centre, every Monday 10am-12noon. It's a drop-in group for mums to be, new parents & carers of babies and young toddlers - I don't know how many other Dads will come along, but we do get the odd one or two at bumps n babes in Herne Hill.

Would be nice if this thread could keep going if only to keep dads coming into this part of the forum - it's supposed to be a family room not a mums' room, and it's great when the dads are here too.


Come to think of it, families are also grannies and uncles and cousins and siblings and stuff, so it should include everyone! - but you know what I mean.

Ok I'm throwing my cards in too.


2 boys 9 & 5 I'm a very hands on "Dad" changed career to be around them as much as possible. I love it & it gets better as time goes on.


We were the first of our social group to have children so I know how you feel. Once they start school though it really changes again.


Flexible with time & location though I do live near you.

well we could use an agreement on a date if keefs brssic on the 22nd I will stand him a pint or two or we could have a whip and all stick in what we can each like a tenner or something so if anyones skint they can put in next month, I will only have a pint or two so there should be extra in the kitty for those with a little less to put in!

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By Blah Blah · Posted

      Morally they should, but we don't actually vote for parties in our electoral system. We vote for a parliamentary (or council) representative. That candidates group together under party unbrellas is irrelevant. We have a 'representative' democracy, not a party political one (if that makes sense). That's where I am on things at the moment. Reform are knocking on the door of the BNP, and using wedge issues to bait emotional rage. The Greens are knocking on the door of the hard left, sweeping up the Corbynista idealists. But it's worth saying that both are only ascending because of the failures of the two main parties and the successive governments they have led. Large parts of the country have been left in economic decline for decades, while city fat cats became uber wealthy. Young people have been screwed over by student loans. Housing is 40 years of commoditisation, removing affordabilty beyond the reach of too many. Decently paid, secure jobs, seem to be a thing of the past. Which of the main parties can people turn to, to fix any of these things, when the main parties are the reason for the mess that has been allowed to evolve? Reform certainly aren't the answer to those things. The Greens may aspire to do something meaningful about some of them, but where will they find the money to pay for it? None of it's easy.

      Yes, but the context is important and the reason.

      That messes up Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland - democracy being based on citizenship not literacy. There's intentionally no one language that campaign materials have to be in.

      TBH if people don't see what is sectarian in the materials linked to above when they read about them, then I don't think me going on about it will help. They speak for themselves.  I don't know how the Greens can justify promising to be a strong voice for one particular religion. Will that pledge hold when it comes to campaigning in East Dulwich (which is majority atheist)? https://censusdata.uk/e02000836-east-dulwich/ts030-religion
