Next Forum Drinks - Friday 12th October at the George Canning


Recommended Posts

The world seems to be turning excesively widdershins today, but I'm sure it'll calm down eventually.


Lovely to see everyone, and mucho aplodjoth if I spouted far too much nonsense last night.

Once again I can but echo Sean's words at how good it was to see some new faces and I had such a blimmin' good time.

GG you're lovely and I really hope it all works out, in fact it will, I can feel it in my waters ;), and yes, our Ems is a superstar.


Right, snags and The Wire series 2 for me. Anyone up for the rugger tonight?

Thanks for last night folks but?


Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! My head really hurts! Why would the gods do this to me? All I did was have fun and drink too much.


Oh cruel world. At least thou hast brought forth ibuprofen and bacon sarnies from thy bounty.


hmm bounty?

Excellent to see everbody old and new. Personally I am still reelng from Bagpuss' revelation concerning her feelings towards ginger hair :))


There was much talk (from me?) about meeting at the CPT for the rugby in that its in ED and the EDT wll be rammed full of people and Hoopers is a little off the beaten track for many.


What do folks think? I'll go anywhere, given half the chance.


Also up for Boothby Graffo at the Hob tomorrow.


Sorry I disappeared at 1 - saw a bus come hurtling around the corner and my mind said "bed".

Awwwwww Mike I think I was expecting you to be greek cos of your surname... & was a little shocked that you were not dark haired & olive skinned but ... well how could you possibly be offended or upset with Bagpuss for long??

Another great night. Met a nice bunch of new people & as always ran out of time to talk to everyone.


As for the rugby, I had a conversation with Mike (possibly more than once!) about it & we were thinking CPT. Any other suggestions?

What time does the Rugby kick off? You poor loves with your hangovers, see coming into work has its advantages.


Hey Bagpuss I did a recci on the school & all becomes clear now, HOW close are you??? We will have to "do lunch".


May see some of you later if you are not all still recovering.?


Cheers GG

    • I doubt if it was something special - it has been full a few times I've been recently and when I have been able to get a space I've been lucky and bagged the only one available. I think there are only around 15 general spaces. Others are for staff, blue badge holders or EVs. I guess in winter people are more likely to drive, it wouldn't take much to fill all the spaces with the different things going on at the surgery/pharmacy such as blood tests, picking up prescriptions. It's possible a lot of the cars are in and out in 15 mins, i've not monitored it closely. This morning with all spaces filled when I arrived there were a couple of cars loitering in the hope of a space becoming available. I didn't want to risk it. As has been said, you can drive in and out and be caught on camera and not get a ticket but I'm not sure what the grace period is, if there is one.  Like you, I don't think a significant number of people are parking there to go shopping - it's too far from Lordship Lane as I found out this morning when i had to run from LL to Tessa Jowell! i guess the car parking spaces just can't cope with the number of legit drivers using Tessa Jowell and if that's the case not a lot can be done about it.
    • Wanted near Bellenden Road: firewood. If you have any spare or unwanted firewood (e.g. left by previous owners), please let me know. Thanks!
    • I go there quite regularly (don't ask), on my own behalf and as a chauffeur for family. I have never noted people parking up, going in and then straight out again once registered. Some times of day (and some days) are much busier than others, as you might expect, especially during winter vaccination season. 
    • There are a lot of car parking spaces - in order for them to all be filled, it would suggest a local event rather than unrelated shoppers. Does the surgery have records of when the it's full? presume there is some sort of management of it. Perhaps there is a correlation to local activity or a pattern.
