Friday afternoon friends' birthday drinks down at the Dog, followed by snifter or two in Inside 72, then ate an excellent red snapper down at the Drum, back to '72 for beer and Jack Daniels, cocktails in Black Cherry, then back to the Drum, poured myself into a cab at 2.20am.

More of the same on Saturday

Sunday: Superglued myself to the sofa with a copy of the Sindy.

Went down to Ramsgate on the Kent coast. Lovely to see the boats bobbing up and down in the sunny harbour. I didn't dip my toes in the sea though. May have to borrow my friend's lovely dogs sometime (I think one of them is in love with me) and take them for a walk on the beach (and no doubt a swim in the sea! - wet shaggy retriever anyone? ::o)


Had meal at a lovely Thai place there. Looks a very unassuming place but superb food - regularly in 'top 10 lists' for best Thai in south-east. Owner said she's currently practising her lines for a part in a Channel 4 film about Chinese gangs!? A man from Harry Potter films was also eating there. I didn't know who he was and was a bit miffed when kids wanted his autograph - I think he may have been in Auf Wiefesen(sp?) Pet. He had a very very deep voice which sounded a little scary! I also learnt how to say thank you in Thai (koppen ka!)


Drove through some lovely Kent villages on the way there - masses of poppies evrywhere.


Was up early and back late on Sat, so Sun was a lazy day.

    • Hi Sue, they were not local solicitors. Andrea’s was based in Wales and the other firms involved were large nationwide conveyancing companies (rather than conventional high street solicitors). I’m happy to advise clients and buyers privately on what I believe to be their shortcomings but I don’t think doing so in public on the forum would be appropriate, particularly as they are not locally based. My general advice would always be to steer clear of the big conveyancing companies as they are, in my experience, notoriously difficult to contact when the need arises and the case handler is often not a fully qualified solicitor and so issues have to be referred upwards to “technical teams” internally, which was part of the problem in Andrea’s chain.

    • A slightly vulnerable but hopeful post… Hi everyone, I’m a guy in my mid-thirties who’s recently moved back to London and East Dulwich (I previously lived here for many years before, so I know the area well). But if I’m honest, I’ve found the return a little tough. Most of my close friends have moved out of London to start families — totally understandable — but it’s left me feeling a bit adrift and not quite sure how to make new connections again. Work has taken up a huge chunk of my life in recent years, and I’ve definitely let hobbies, interests and a proper social life fall by the wayside. I feel like I went from a fun social life in my 20’s to suddenly blinking and realising things had gone a bit er…quiet. So, I’m trying to redress the balance a bit — mainly so myself and my partner don’t murder each other 😂, and just to meet some new local faces. I was wondering: is anyone else in a similar boat? And would there be any interest in starting a relaxed, low-key local social group? Could be a casual pub meet, sports, park hangouts, live comedy nights — open to ideas!  I’m happy to do the organising/admin side of things — just wanted to put it out there and see if there’s any appetite. I’ll gauge interest and take it from there.  If you’d prefer not to reply publicly, feel free to drop me a DM.  Cheers all! 👋
