Well I try not to but having lived in slightly ropier parts of town than ED until now and tried out some of those local boozers to only be met by pretty unfriendly stares it is not always worth the risk...!

I am so so fond of the CPT, and do worry about its fate. It's the only proper local pub left! No pretensions to being a hotel lobby or suchlike (Clockhouse take note), just nice staff and an agreeable atmosphere. As Ant said, not much not needs changing other than structural stuff.

I did go into the Castle once Pebs (a long time ago), and it was a bit scary. Agree the building has potential though.

A magical mystical thing has happened in East Dulwich.


Somehow, seemingly in the middle of the night, the paint fairy has bestowed upon the CPT a fetching shade of GREEN.


I have had to look at that shitty purple flaking paint out my front window for 5 years. It feels like I've moved house.


I thank the lord!


Now stick a juke box in the back and pick up the 72 clientele. GENIUS.

I'm not sure things have got that bad yet.

If you require a style consultant, then wouldn't you not know 'style' if it moved into your spare room?

    • I normally vote Lib Dem and will continue to do so.
    • the reason Tories have lost votes is because they have lost trust primarily. the voters didn't vote for what the Tories did, but what they promised. you can't blame the voters for the outcome, just because they voted for the party. Labour are in a position of influence so we will have to see what they do.  Reform are there, as quite a presence should Labour continue to fail. It feels as if we are on a very thin line
    • I agree with that The voters authorised strong austerity in 2010 and kept voting for it for 14 years - for that reason alone, given Labour have been in power for only months I can't find my else able to equate them as bad as each other. Yet. It may happen and given Labour's poor decision making and comms to date I wouldn't be surprised if they end up that way Problem is the voters say they want one thing (lower prices/better public services/things working) but then don't reward any government that tries to deliver -  and they explicitly said they wanted higher prices with Brexit and lower public services by voting Cons in for 14 years - so they got what they wanted, they just don't like the reality Whoever is elected now has to find a way to address those years of underinvestment and diminished growth - there is no painless way out. But blaming immigration for everything (Reform speciality) is only making everything worse
    • That’s good to know, but it just wasn’t clear to me.
