You know what...for christmas I am going to push the boat out and make home made dips for my family...see if they can tell the difference and see if my jeans still fit after!

Making the stuff doesnt fill the jeans - its scoffing it. Given the usual Christmas gross out, how would you tell if the dips had a filling effect?


"Auntie Nellie, here's a tub of homemade humus for Christmas" - is this really how you wish to share your seasonal cheer?

Yes, the way through my families heart is through their stomach...I actually dont eat all the christmas crap at christmas...my indulge is bailey in my coffee...yum yum!

good spot Asset - typo on my part. But surely the calories come from the additives and starch in the shop stuff and not from the natural ingredients (and that's even if you take calorie counting seriously.... calories are just one part of body mass... oops strayed onto the patch marked "obvious")

What?! Haringey for f*cks sake I used to live there back in 2002. Moved Sawf thinking it was where it's at.


Crocs? I have some I bought in Australia BEFORE Stella B and the great Croc invasion in ED, AND I still wear them with socks!!!!!!!!!!yippeeeeee I am a bogan.

>>it's chickpeas, garlic, lemon, olive oil and a bit of what you fancy <<


You forgot the Tahini - essential!. I made a huge batch of the stuff once in a blender and...well...you do end up with rather a lot! M & S do a lovely creamy houmous, but am more of a Tzatziki (spelling?) man myself....

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
