Hi!

Next film club will be the evening of Sat 21st March. We will meet in the Rye Hotel pub before hand.

Not sure what we will see as the Plex haven't published their times yet, so more details to follow soon.

Everyone welcome. We are a friendly bunch of locals who like a good chat, drink and film! Luisa

Next Saturday evening is Film Club!

Hope to see you there. Newbies very welcome. Drinks in the Rye Hotel and a film at the Plex. Then probably back to the Rye for drinks!

Details of time and film will be on here later on in the week. L

Hi Everyone,


I have looked at all of the reviews of the films showing at Peckham Plex on Saturday night, and Still Alice wins!

It has excellent reviews, here is one of them http://www.theguardian.com/film/2015/mar/08/still-alice-review-julianne-moore-superb-alzheimers


So, here's the plan:

Meet 7:15pm in the Rye Hotel. I will post on here where we are sitting or standing.

Leave at 8:15pm to walk to Plex.

Film starts at 8:45pm.


If you can buy tickets in advance to avoid the queues then that's definitely preferable, but not essential.

Hope to see some familiar faces, and newbies are very welcome. It is a very relaxed social group, who enjoy a chat, drink and film.

Depending how late the film finishes, we also go for a drink afterwards as well.


Hope to see you on Saturday! Luisa

Hi,

The best option seems to be Tomorrowland: A world Beyond. It starts at 20:25 at Peckham Plex.

It has good reviews http://www.theguardian.com/film/2015/may/17/tomorrowland-review-george-clooney-turns-mr-incredible-as-a-man-genius-world-saver


We will meet at 7pm at Rye Hotel. I'll have the film clacker board for easy identification and will post on here where we are in the pub.

Let's leave pub at 8pm to get to the film for 20:25. Would be great if you want to pick up tickets before hand to avoid the queues, but that's totally optional.

Everyone very welcome! Any questions pm me. L

Hi everyone,

After a rather long break, Film Club is back!

We will be meeting in The Rye Hotel on the evening of Fri 29th Jan, and will stay loyal to the Peckham Plex and watch a film there. Films and times aren't published until a few days before, but as soon as they are, I will post on here a time to meet. But for now, keep next Friday free!

Film Club has been a very successful social enterprise with lots of long lasting friendships being made!We are a friendly bunch of locals, around the 30's-40's age bracket, but all are welcome.

We meet in the pub and walk down to the Plex, and depending on time, back to the pub for a drink. Hope to see you there! Louisa

Hi All,

I have chosen The Revenant for Film Club. It has good reviews so fingers crossed. See below for film blurb!

Meet at 19:15 in Rye Hotel - I'll have my film clacker board with me!

Leave 20:10 for Plex

Film starts 20:35.

Try to get tickets in advance as queues can be pretty long there! We are leaving plenty of time so no worries if you can't.

Any questions, PM me! Hope to see lots of faces, old and new! everyone welcome.

L


Inspired by true events, THE REVENANT captures one man's epic adventure of survival and the extraordinary power of the human spirit. In an expedition of the uncharted American wilderness, legendary explorer Hugh Glass (Leonardo DiCaprio) is brutally attacked by a bear and left for dead by members of his own hunting team. In a quest to survive, Glass endures unimaginable grief as well as the betrayal of his confidant John Fitzgerald (Tom Hardy). Guided by sheer will and the love of his family, Glass must navigate a vicious winter in a relentless pursuit to live and find redemption.

Film Club is tonight! Everyone welcome, would be lovely to meet new people in the area!

See above for timings.

I will have the film clacker board clearly displayed on the table in the pub, and will also post on here where we are.

See you later! L

    • Possibly a little specialist (and the ultimate eventual clothes horse unless you're into fitness!) but we have the Pivot: PIVOT | Ultimate Space-Saving Bed & Home Gym Solution It's a full weight Olympic squat rack which pulls down from the wall into a double/king bed. When we bought it as a Kickstarter project it was less expensive than a murphy bed from places like the Wall Bed Company, though this may no longer be the case. Super easy to put together ourselves.
    • The skatepark has been a great use of a derelict site, but surely the point is that that site should not have been allowed (and should not continue to be allowed) to have become derelict in the first place. As someone who couldn't live much closer to the Grove Tavern, I would welcome any redevelopment efforts. The current state of the pub is untenable, wasteful and ultimately an embarrassment for the local area.  The concerns mentioned about young people and the lack of public space for them to spend time are totally valid. And I agree, its very inspiring that a group of teenagers have built the skate park and created something out of nothing. But that shouldn't prevent the site being turned into something that is of utility to the whole community - whether that be housing, supermarkets or a pub/restaurant. 
    • Crikey. I made one comment  relating to the ice cream flavour, which referred to a previous thread which you started.  That thread was also about a specific named local cafe (not the same one). You subsequently deleted most of your very long posts on it, which included one in which you made false and insulting assumptions about another forum member (not me). Luckily nobody had quoted your posts  in their responses, so the content is no longer on here. In view of the subject of that thread (you and your son didn't like the vegan hot chocolate) I thought my comment above about the ice cream flavour was funny. I'm sorry if you found it "sarcastic". Maybe we have a  different sense of humour. I thought the rest of my posts on this thread  were helpful. I'm sorry if you didn't. I'm not deliberately "replying to every one of your posts " !!! What a very strange thing to say! To the best of my knowledge I haven't replied more to your posts than to anyone else's! I post a lot on this forum.  If you click on my name you can see all my posts.  I have lived in the area since 1991, and I have an interest in what is going on. I've been posting on here almost since the forum started. I am  retired, apart from promoting and  running music gigs, which takes up a lot of my time, however yes!  I do have many other  things to do!  I don't know if they are "better" than posting on here.  You post on here! So do many other people! If everyone had "better things to do" there would be no forum! I am  "out" on here, and always have been. I don't have anything to hide behind a forum name, and I have always gone under my own name.  You can come and find me any time if you want to address your apparent grievances with me in person. I am glad your son is better.
    • Thankfully he's better Sue, thanks to your usual sarcasm - can always rely on the fact you have nothing better to do than reply to every one of my posts. Clearly I'll have to change my ED forum name 😉 Apologies to anyone offended. We've all eaten in this cafe many many times so I've put this down to a one off. Yes obviously kids get sick. Gosh I didn't realise when ED forum became so full of passive aggressive, sarcastic people. Won't be posting again in a hurry - cue the afore mentioned type of replies in response no doubt... Oh and this incident was most definitely the icecream or person serving it having dirty hands or gloves, as my son was fine after he was sick. So no bug.  For the avoidance of doubt nobody meant for this to affect any business, so once again apols for mentioning by name. Happy icecream eating everyone.
