It's largely a categorisation problem, isn't it? FWIW, here's an artist's impression of my thinking when I decided to add to the old thread yesterday.


Is there a previous thread? Well, yes, I contributed to it, though I can't remember when. Never mind, a precautionary search will find it and any other thread in less than thirty seconds. http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/search.php?4,search=treacle,page=1,match_type=ALL,match_dates=30,match_forum=ALL


Ah, it's been lounged. Do I want to override the principle of not multiplying threads unnecessarily by starting another thread in the main ED section? Well, personally no, as I don't think it's substantively much more about East Dulwich than, say, the vanity threads about which purportedly notable people are seen in the local shops, bars or caffs.


But subsequently there have been two threads started in the ED section, one of them now lounged. So there are clearly folk who think of it as an ED-interest topic.


If that's the case, I wonder if the best resolution would be to keep one thread here, including a clear reference and link to the original one at http://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/forum/read.php?20,541742,706211.

It matters for two reasons


One. Any forum becomes unusable when it's a mess


Two and more importantly. If I want to partake in a discussion and there are three threads open which one do I use. Let's say I pick one arbitrarily, only to find someone else makes a point in another one I want to respond to. So ee both go and cross post in the other one...and on and on it goes



It's basic etiquette and it does matter.



Unless you are Aidan gillens character in the film of course

Go and support Treacle Junior-it's a great film. Mainly shot in East Dulwich and around. Loads of us enjoyed being extras and Jamie Thraves , the director is very talented . Peckham Rye has never looked so beautiful and The Blue Brick ( in its former reincarnation) has a scene shot in it. This may all be in previous threads but I haven't checked.

    • Chatgpt is a joy (and scary)  No Water on Barry Road" (to the tune of No Woman, No Cry) (Verse 1) No water… on Barry Road No water… on Barry Road Said, I remember, when we used to flow In the tap by the old front gate Oba served us clear, sweet water Then it vanished like fate And then the plumber would come in the evening Fixing pipes, sayin’, "Just hold tight" But every time we checked the faucet It was still a dusty fight (Chorus) No water… (no water) On Barry Road (on Barry Road) No water… yeah On Barry Road (Verse 2) I see the buckets lined up outside Hope in every pail we hold The sun be blazing, the kids be crying And the kettle’s running cold Good friends we had, and good friends we lost To the drought along the way In this bright future, we can't forget the past But we sure need water today (Chorus) No water… no flowin’ tide On Barry Road… we stand and sigh No water… but we still survive On Barry Road… we still try (Bridge) Oh, dry days will pass, I know Pipe dreams gotta start to flow But until then we wait and pray For rain or trucks to come our way (Final Chorus) No water… (no water) On Barry Road (on Barry Road) No water… no pride But still we rise… (It refused to sing it for me)
