I had a great evening out on the lane, hope everyone else had a good Wednesday evening too. I had a great time checking out mid week offerings of the pubs in ED. It was a surprisingly miserable evening and the football was on, we started by taking shelter from the rain in The Vale which was totally lacking in atmosphere, such an uncomfortable place to be especially when it?ss damp and cold outside and a tantalizingly short trot to the bright lights of the lane. The beer is relatively cheap in there but a bit too flat for me and at nearly ?3.00 for a pint and some rather dubious clientele to boot it seemed to offer very little in the way of value for money. We then headed down to the EDT and although the beer is better, the staff were extremely busy dealing with the overload of rowdy Man U supporters and we soon gave up the wait and moved on. So infuriating. Next stop was The Bishop. The football was being screened at the back end of the bar with the sound turned down so as not to detract from the general atmosphere which was great. I must say I don?t really head down that way much but I had an excellent time. I saw the match whilst enjoying a decent conversation with my friends and then we headed out into the back yard for a fag and a chat with Clarence. I read somewhere that there was a new chef there (or am I confusing it with The Vale?). Anyway, it was excellent, I had the steak burger and my veggie Aussie friend had the aubergine burger, both of which were top notch and very reasonably priced. It really was fantastic. The staff were so friendly, it was busy but not once did I feel crushed or devalued. I will certainly head down there more often. Roll on the next mid week evening out!

Looks like National Rail have now revised their information regarding ED Trains: East Dulwich Live Arrivals & Departures

According to the National Rail site which appears to be reasonably accurate at the moment, Southern Trains to and from ED are now running but with delays.

SSD - Have you considered the CPT? I'm not sure that it fits your 'flagging boozer' criteria though as Punch Taverns appear to be looking for pretty hefty ingoing.
