Mark does have a point. If i went to the pub for a quiet after footie pint, expecting it to be a nice civilised early evening stop off, before going home to write my memoirs and do some crocheting, I wouldn't expect my afternoon to be sabotaged by a bunch of lager louts, and for my last memories of the evening to involve my eyes rolling uncontrollably as I lose yet another bout of fussball, before staggering home without even managing a kebab or ruby, and coming to sometime the next morning wishing my head would hurry up and cave in ... would I. I'll get my coat ;)

Hmm, something smells a bit fishy to me. CC, were those drunken fools about so high *holds right hand out flat about top of my ear level* wearing a long woolen coat and prone to bouts of hirsuteness?

Wow, proper christmas trees that smelt like christmas back then. None of your no-drop needles nonsense!!

In East Dulwich I would like to see shopsmore like they were in the good old days before these nasty home counties types moved in, when every workhouse had a piano, and policemen gave you a clip round the ear and the shops in Lordship lane were much more authentic Lordship Lane circa 1900 You don't see that lad in a 3 wheeled pram now do you, and he's even neatening his tie. That's because he never had a mobile phone.

Oooh, biiiiig photos ;) Took a couple on my way to work, but snow had slushed by time i got to camden

I caught the second half, a cracker of a goall to go 3-0 up and then with 14 minutes left, total collapse. It was like watching the hamlets of 4 years ago (or keegan's newcastle) you just had no idea what you were going to get. Goal was being peppered in the dying moments and we had to be happy with the draw. I believe Huguenot will do this weeks match report, complete with photos. Huguenot? Not too hungover I trust.

I'll have a word with my brother when he gets back from honeymoon, to see if we can't book up a day with the claphamites this summer (incidentally I'm pretty certain not one of them actually lives in clapham)

Wow, that's quite a testimonial there DM, thanks, though admittedly the closest I ever get to dashing is as I throw myself down the length of my living room whilst playing wii bowling ;)

I believe the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster is thinking of opening a school in Dulwich, attracted by such wonderful shows of piety and of course the low number of pirates in the area. I for one am signing up my unborn children for pasta-based indoctrination as we speak. (err type) Hail to the Pasta.

"do we need more flats?" Well according to government figures which suggests London will grow by 750,000 by 2020, we need at least 200,000 - 400,000 new homes built and quick smart. Most of these are planned for the lee valley and the thames gateway in essex and kent, as well as the awful prospect of expanding Stevenage *sobs* Of course your environmental types are up in arms, and this does fly in the face of longstanding green belt strategy. Lets leave aside for the moment that much investment is heading north, and for the first time we have a net movement of people within the uk from south to north, as that's what the government have decided to do too. Sooo what's the alternative. Well it's estimated that there is an absolute minimum of 80,000 brown field sites in london, and we really do need to concentrate on this if we're to a) reeverse much of the urban decay we see, and b) protect out beautiful green belt land. If we accept all this, then I don't think there's much call for any NIMPY pimbying "do we REALLY need any more flats" comments, as the answer is quite clearly, yes we do. Lectury rant overwith, apologies. Have a nice weekend and hope to see all at the Hamlets, or at least in the club house afterwards for a pint.

Yes they can, so body armour de rigeur I suggest. Look forward to the 20:20 I must say.

Frankly dulwichmum, I insist, I think James would fit in well. "Two Kidneys" "French Baby Faced Assassin" he will of course need a moll.

I'm pretty sure i've csught site of a couple of gang ident hand-signals down at the Black Cherry during scones and elevenses. Bone-China Dems?

Last time we were soundly beaten by the belair cricket club. I may be able to get us a game against the Clapham Inns 11

I've always wanted to run with a gang. How about the 'Goose Green Gentlemen'. We can hang around the park looking surly in our smoking jackets and slippers while sending our fags down to Alldays to nick a copy of the economist. Wobetide any other gangs who tread on our turf (newly laid darling, 60% bluegrass 40% bermudagrass) lest we 'do' them with our skivvies (shurely shivs?) and set our rat terriers on them.

Gnomes or Trolls? ;-) I have to say it sounds great.

I used to live very near St Evenage (rhymes with arbitrage) which frankly trumps the lot. A more wretched hive of scum nor villainy will you find. Where I owned one of these

AsI recall I scored about 4 of 20 odd balls, I thought Keef was inspired, and you had a rpetty good innings yourself. Especially as we bowled at about 6 mph and the opposition around 70 mph. Gosh, is that bob over there, err time is money people, gotta go ;?P

Are you suggesting I'm going to the pub? Oh poo, yes indeed. photoing too!!

Some of us are at work with our crashing hangovers. God let this day end, pleeeeease. Yes a twerp, but superb in more than a film or two. Carlito's Way and Thin Red Line being notable examples.

Count me in for both. especially the 20:20

Polly, amstrad seems to have had a rip off of jet set willy http://www.geocities.com/simontransit2003/willy.html you can play it here. Jeremy, aren't they having fun?
