Tsk Keef - you and your Gypsy obsession


There isnt a clique! Just a few people who post more than most - because we live otherwise sad and empty lives.


The Administrator has actually been a member for just 6 weeks - but he is rather assertive.


Come along lovely people. There really isnt a clique.


Just wear a pink bobble hat - thats all.


>:D<

I reckon the Herne was a contender before the New Plough for next Forum drinks - might be better to wait another month for the Plough to settle after it's recent refurb. From the recent postings about the place, they have not yet rid it of it's yobbish crowd - and perhaps Friday nights will still attract them for a while. Having said that, I've popped in there at a quiet time and thought it was impressive.

I witnessed a very amusing scene at lunchtime there today.... (The Plough that is). I might put it in the relevant thread tho


Ed I think you were right about the Herne being nominated but having been in a few times (and thought it fine) it is more in the Franklins/Palmerston ballpark

I just cycled home from the forum drink up, with a funny warm feeling inside me. Thought it was the drink or something I ate at first, but just realised it was that nice feeling u used to get as a kid when someone gave u a sweet or shared their crisps with you. Hehe, thanx guys had a lovely time. A few more months here and I'm gona turn all lovely and fluffy!!

Good to meet you too CWALD - especially now you HAVE a degree ;-)


I think everyone may be a little tender headed this morning so if you are suffering from post-drinks-come-down and why-is-noone-responding-to-my-sweet-post don't get paranoid. It's not you it's the rest of us recovering


Thanks to Jamie and Viv for being great hosts and great to meet all the regs, the semi regs and the first timers. (no Louisa tho!)


And now, to The Quiet Room for some coffee...

See THIS THREAD for a lnk to some photos of last night.


My head hurts more than it should.... Bloody Becks! Nice pub though, and a good crowd.... They just need to get Grolsch behind the bar and we're laughing! :)-D


Missed you last night Jah..... We do those shots another time!

Great evening as ever - good to meet old friends and the first timers!


I sneaked off at about 12 as people were trying to work out where they were go on to - Sorry - I was feeling rather tired. Still, nice kebab - or so my kitchen bin tells me.


Time for shiny breakfast I think.

I've finally emerged. Lovely evening indeed, great to finally catch up with some of the regulars and put faces to names.

Congrats again CWALD, I for one think you're lovely. Scaring posh kids indeed, perish the thought :)


And remember MW, he doesn't *know* he's called Mr MadWorld74, he's probably going to find it a bit odd if you keep introducing him as such ;-)

Can't wait for the plough frankly!!

    • I have not. Both things are true.
    • I have been thinking about it and what I have loosely come up with so far are sites and types. Sites Here, Comment is Free, the Independent, the BBC (difficult as their comments section is only ever on trivia), The Telegraph (less so but increasing), The times (rapidly increasing), New Statesman, Spectator (much less so but some increase) even the Daily Mail and UnHerd (perhaps even union platforms, agit-prop and "progressive" platforms, XR, "middle-East", Just Stop Oil, Reddit, Bluesky, Truth Social etc.) I am sure the AI will find more to cross-reference. Types Astro-turfers, single-issue obsessives (frequently overlap with Astro-turfers), floral enforcers, ideologues, political staff, hypocrites, luxury belief pushers, Igors and Renfields. The vast majority are; normal local residents a bit frustrated with something; those looking for a tradesman; or just the friendly saying hello and looking for a bit of community. Spartacus thank you. Although you should probably find something else  more interesting to occupy your time; my energy for this is rapidly deflating. It won't disappear and I will get it done (once I work out which AI and which parameters to use) but it might not happen for a while. I saw your comment on the PIP thread; you have to use your single worst day to apply. Being bravely determined not to be defeated (a quality most normal people find admirable and honourable) means your claim can easily be rejected or at least made difficult. "I will get up, I will walk to the shop, I will cook". Those are the tests you have to make clear you only ever fail at. Sorry but its the truth. I wish you good luck with it.
    • Going by tracking information they go via Croydon and East Dulwich (Peckham) sorting offices. Round my way, and I know it varies from street to street, delivery of tracked items brought by the regular postman is mostly reliable. I've noticed if there isn't a postman doing a regular round, there may be a walking postman just delivering the tracked items. 
    • Are the parcel services organised by the local sorting office? We always notice parcels delivered by the vans are delivered on time but those that come via the postie can be unpredictable and we often get a "you were not in" when no-one even attempted delivery.
