This forum covers a wide range of subjects - but our discussions are, apart from drink nights, virtual. Out there somewhere real groups of people discussing "things" - there must be a few book clubs discussing the latest Martin Amis, Robert Harris offerings. Tried that but couldn't match my taste in books to the group.


Are there any other discussion groups - politics (without being part of a political party), sport, military history, wargaming, trainspotting, cooking, flower arranging, beer, - I don't know and am not sure where I might find out.

Hi MM,

I know there was a book group being held at the library on LL on the last thursday of the month, you can generally get the book being read in the library. That said, I went there with a view to getting the book (this was back in the summer) and they didn't have any copies left so I didn't bother going to the meeting two weeks later. After that, summer sort of got in the way and I haven't thought about it until now! If you go, would you post a comment about it, please?


C :)


ps you might think 'why doesn't she just go herself?' I'm studying at the moment and reading for pleasure has to be postponed until the new year :)

    • I’m in exactly the same position.  They badgered me for ages to have a water meter fitted.  I’d prevaricated simply because it’s so tedious dealing with these people but eventually gave in when the communications became increasingly frequent and aggressive and it was done in March 2023. I just assumed I’d then be charged on actual consumption but I received an email this morning with details of the latest price increase and it said, “Since your property doesn’t have a water meter, your bill is calculated in advance based on fixed rates rather than water usage”.  I’m sure they’ve realised I’d be paying much less if they billed me on actual consumption but have not gone out of their way to inform me.  Trawling through their website, for me anyway, is an unutterably tedious chore, but I think I’ll now have to work up the energy over the weekend to pick up the phone on Monday morning and have a word with them.  
    • Great Service again from Andy.  Contacted him with a couple of issues with toilet cistern and shower.  He came over and sorted it all out quickly. Good advice given, reasonable charge for the jobs.  Highly recommend Andy!   
    • Just seen this.  Your post was a bit unnecessary.  I was simply responding to the previous post that children should be cycling on the pavement. But as you say I know shed loads about transport.  Not to the depths that some go down to the minutia.  Some call me the space cowboy.  Some call me the gangster of love.  I think of myself as the people's poet.  You have to laugh at yourself. Echoing what DKH said, we weren't there, you don't know the parent was making a snide remark, My favourite Dulwich parent story was a few years ago were friends when we were in the Herne garden a few years ago, who let their children run riot.  Bless.  One decided to turn the hose on spraying some poor drinkers.  Now most of us would be mortified, but the friends welcomed their child's creativity.
