I do not like the Germans. They are aggressive, rude, often have excessive facial and underarm hair of which they are blatantly proud (and that is just the women) and occasionally wear very strange knee lenth leather trousers with bibs. They are not to be trusted. How dare they have such a thriving economy.


I do not like the French, their toilet facilities are an abomination - the doors are often too high off the floor and have a big gap all the way around. It is still possible to find hole in the ground toilets in France and the toilet paper is inhospitable and likely to inflict paper cuts.


I like hugs and I like Sean MacGabhan although I think he has been hormonal lately. I also like Mike Bate - he is good at hugging, I like Mark and Keef too (sigh). OK I like some girls as well, but that is purely platonic (bats eyelashes).

People who do good kind acts just because that's the way they are, not for status and not so they can tell everyone about it


Ordinary people, ie not on the telly, I meet who inspire me to be a better person or a more brave person


Slightly elderly gentlemen who smile at me in the street, say good morning, and make me feel like a "young lady" and politeness still exists


and yeah I have a weakness for Northerners too, I think this partly a familiarity thing which is comforting in the isolation of a big city. But I like the dark humour and the bluntness. Northerners are usually better out of the North though.

Totally agree with this, especially the last bit. I too have worked with a lot of Germans whilst living overseas, everyone with impeccable English. (better than mine - LOL)


Although I am in agreement with Mick Mac - French wines are the best (tu)

MM I also like the northerners, great sense of humour and they dont take themselves too seriously. While we are on the subject of the north, love the Northern Irish accent on guys. (sorry girls) Everytime I hear the accent, I feel like I am being serenaded.(sighing rather loudly) I have left my heart in Northern Ireland. (still sighing rather loudly)

    • If you have recently sold your flat in East Dulwich what was the difference between valuation and eventual selling price? I’m finding that agent valuations vary so widely that it’s hard to get any idea of current actual property values.  Are any agents particularly known for overvaluing and by what sort of percentage?
    • It’s 3 AM - Anyone know when this horrendous noise is going to stop?! We’re on the Sainsbury’s Local end of Landells and am quite frankly sympathising with all of you nearer Peckham Rye. My ears are ringing! How is this ok?!  Edit: According to the website it should have finished by 22:30. What is going on and how is this acceptable (and not more people are complaining about the crippling sound levels we’re being subjected to?) - shocking.. 
    • https://chng.it/YXCH5XXVMY We live near and it’s absolute hell. The noise of the people coming and going from Peckham is the worse. They are so loud and obnoxious. This is my 5th year of this nonsense. People vomiting in my front garden, urinating in my neighbour’s gardens, throwing food into my garden. Screaming waking up my children while waiting for their Ubers. The people that organise this festival are 100% obnoxious. They told us there would be security along our road (there wasn’t). I asked them to put up my family in a hotel but they wouldn’t. It’s actually a human rights infraction for all of us this badly affected. Over the years I have spent so much money trying to be away this weekend but none of us should have to. The data also shows that most people coming are not local residents - so of 3000 tickets sold, hardly any to residents; it’s easy to argue that it disadvantages us residents way more than any conceivable benefit. My elderly neighbours are besides themselves. Every year the setup and striking of the festival blocks off the park during half term, plus the antisocial behaviour and loud noises mean actual children that live here are prevented from using the park and playgrounds. The police initially rejected the license last year… then suddenly changed their mind with no apparent reason… seems legit. Also the GALA team lie and make false statements in their advertising about consulting with us (they don’t they just tell us what is going to happen then are extremely obstinate and rude). My neighbour runs Friends of Peckham Rye and has been totally distressed by all the damage done to recent planting initiatives funded by the local community. GALA do not repair this, GALA pay off Southwark and then Southwark refuse to confirm what they are paid, or how much (if anything) is spent to repair the park.   This needs to be stopped once and for all!!   Petition asking Southwark to stop providing the license to GALA once and for all.    I mean I am sure they will listen to us just like they did about the LTNs…   https://chng.it/YXCH5XXVMY
