Keef Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Any news on this, are people still keen?Mrs Keef and I tried going to The Bridge leisure centre in lower (the sh!t bit) Sydenham last night, and they had bloody kids trampolining (sp?) class in the same hall, so we had kids running around, and parents just walking around / across our court. We left after 30 minutes and demanded a free session at a quieter time.Not so much fun though, nice to have more than one person to play with.

Peckhamgatecrasher Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I'm up for Badminton anytime. Will try to sort out membership soon, it does seem a bit unfair to expect Bagpuss to do it all the time.

Asset Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 my elbow still hurts, looks like I'm out of the game. Might go to the doctor at some point! Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/2307-badminton-anyone/page/13/#findComment-96552 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peckhamgatecrasher Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Poor you. Physio didn't work for my tennis elbow - only thing is rest. This lets you off washing up/hoovering, etc for the next 2 months!

bagpuss78 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 I can't ring up and book anymore because my fusion card has a block on it for some reason. So someone will need to go up there and book for next week, as you can only book over the phone if you have a card for that centre!I'm up for it but, not up for going up there to book, i think it's someone else's turn.

Peckhamgatecrasher Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Need to rant. Got an access card at East Dulwich baths yesterday. Specified that I needed it for badminton at Waverley. Four staff members and two phone calls later, I was assured it was valid. Just rang Waverly to book court only to be told it wasn't. Can't afford to join there at the mo so can't book court. GRR.Extra rant: I signed up online yesterday only to be unable to book court because their website is incompetent. I am waiting to hear from my complaint email. Double GRR.

bagpuss78 Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 They are useless they still haven't told me why my access card has been denied, well they say we missed two bookings, as far as i'm aware we only missed one. They told me i couldn't use my dulwich access card there, thats why i bought the other one! I don't think they know what they are doing!I've tried the booking online thing before too...pants ay!

Keef Posted May 1, 2008 Share Posted May 1, 2008 Short notice, but Mrs Keef and I had a court booked at The Bridge in lower Sydenham this evening 7 til 8, and can't use it. It's already paid for, so if anyone wants a game PM me, and I'll give you the details.

indiepanda Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Is anything happening on the badminton front?I haven't played since I moved to London last year but would like to get back into it now. I'm no great shakes, but I used to play in a friendly club (i.e. not competitively) so I'm not utterly hopeless either.Anyway, if anyone needs a girl to make up a doubles game at any point / fancies a game of singles, please PM me.

Peckhamgatecrasher Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Remind me next week and I'll go and join at Waverley.I played last night with the lovely Caro - there was still a court free. Half the room was being used for a ping pong tournament.

Peckhamgatecrasher Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 That's not good Asset. I tried physio for my Tennis Elbow which didn't help much. It took about a year for all twinges to subside. Maybe we should all try a night playing with our other hand - might be a hoot.
