hello,


i?m new here in south-east-london and hardly know anyone in this area. i moved here to my partners place (he is british) and want to make some contacts for sports, having a coffee, shopping, getting to know this area better and so on...:)-D


i?m 29, german background, female...


i would like to get to know only female members as friends here (for meeting up);-)


thank you ever so much for reading my post and i?m very much looking forward for getting some replies

hello ladymuck,


thank you very much for your reply:))


when meeting up in groups i absolutely don?t mind meeting men as well...i?m just worried to get requests for dates, that?s actually all about it:-$...i don?t know how it works here and maybe i sound a little bit clumsy:-$ (as english is not my first language)


so i?m not against men :))...i?m just searching for friends:)-D


your edf sounds very interesting! so i should pop over to see how it is...


...but i would still be interested in meeting people face to face, having conversations, having a coffee etc...


i?m not so much a "big group" person and find it more difficult in finding friends in big groups but i will try as well.


if there still is anyone who prefers to meet in little groups as well, who loves art, culture, conversations ect i would be very happy:))


thank your very much for reading!

Just to reassure you...I'm not interested in dating men either (very happily married!)...and no-one at the drinks has ever approached me in that way...in fact the men have been pretty gallant and a pleasure to meet. I have also made some fabulous friends as a result of attending the drinks (both male and female)...so there you go...I don't think you would have anything to lose by attending. Oh, and you don't sound clumsy at all. Willkomm und bis spater denn!

Blimey!

"i?m just worried to get requests for dates"

When I was in my teens and 20s I would have LOVED to have got requests for dates.

Never had that confidence and never got them.

One can always turn them away/down if one gets such requests.

But to get them when they're really wanted, never happened!

MrPR came along just as I was heading for the atheist nunnery(!)

this is true>:D i have a partner:)


as i have a partner for the last three years i don?t want to meet other men "just the two of us" as long as i don?t know them...that?s all...i think no partner in this universe would like this (well i wouldn?t like to see that my partner is meeting single girls and going out with them;-))...


if i would be a single it would be different of course:))


good that you didn?t become a nun...and found a partner>:D<

If you're into folk music, come along to one of our Goose events, ask for me (Sue) and I'll introduce you to some people xxx


See our website


www.thegooseisout.com


Next one is on Friday (8 January) , but if you prefer smaller gatherings, the Friday after (15 January).


PS Met my partner at a party in my late fifties :-$ Never too late :-$

hi,


@ sue: oh, i can?t really say that i?m into folk musik...but this is just because i?m from germany and we never hear it there... so i just don?t know it very well.:-$ but it looks very entertaining>:D i didn?t mean it in a bad way but i don?t think it?s very nice towards my partner to go out with other men while he sits at home waiting for me...that?s all it is:)

Hi Mogs,


Do you have full details please? I.e. cost, location, full address etc. I would be very interested.


Tony.

hi,


oh...quite a lot is written here when i was away...


about my smileys: well, i like them as in a forum you can?t really express everything with words and the faces (smileys) can help a bit....make it more "alive".


about the badminton: :-$ you can be happy that you have never seen me playing! i?m so bad that it?s hard to believe that someone can actually have this little talent in playing it!...really! so maybe it?s not the right thing for me to do...


but thank you very much for your idea! every idea and every help is very much appreciated and i?m very happy for getting it!

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
