First off - happy May Day everyone. I love the start of May - such a beautiful month (having a birthday in it helps ;-)).


Does anyone know if anything May Day-ish is happening in or around ED this weekend? I was thinking May Pole, Morris Dancers ('cept the guy with the pig's bladders and horse's head used to freak me out when I was a kid)?


I had a quick look in the What's on Section and couldn't find anything - any ideas?


Oh - it has to be suitable for a 4 month old baby, a nearly three year old whirling dirvish and a 'still a kid' 35 year old uncle - and me (who will be hitting the gin anyway!).


Thanks for your help xxxxx

Oh dear, that listing was from 2007

Though there is traditional mayday stuff in Rochester/Hastings and some stuff on at Dulwich Picture Gallery

Was up there today but thanks to the rain, I totally missed all of this and stayed camped out in the RFH.


Did see what looked like hundreds of nuns out running around Southwark bridge I think it was.....as some were definitely male, methinks if was some kind of fun run. But still a rather strange sight!!!

I missed it too 'cos of the rain ;-( But we had a totally fab time at the London Transport Museum (with my brother and I getting really competitive with the card-stamping orienteering thing).


We then went and watched some of the busking shows in Covent Garden - where a hapless and nameless 3 year old girl tried to join in and gave her own break dancing sideshow - completely stealin gthe thunder from the guy who was 'supposed' to be the centre of attention.


Sigghhh - happy days!

    • It's great that the council will do this, but it does seem a costly waste of their scarce resources, unless there are factors which I don't know about? Surely rather than dealing with a few piles of dog poo on request on an as and when basis they need to find some way of addressing the whole problem? What do other boroughs/countries do? Have things got worse since COVID, when the dog population seems to have quadrupled round here? Did some people acquire dogs without thinking through the less cuddly aspects of ownership? Could dogs be trained to use a litter tray and/or bury their own poo, like cats do? 🤣 (That was a joke, btw).

    • They could refund tix already bought though, couldn't they? We did this recently when we had to reschedule a gig due to the headliner's serious illness. That was a bit different because people had the option to transfer their tix to the new date when confirmed. But in  theory everybody could have got a refund, though in practice only a few people took that option up.
