Hi everyone in East Dulwich.


I am 25 and have just moved to the area and do not know anyone here and I was hoping to seek some advice on what activities happen in East Dulwich that would give me the oppertunity to meet new people.


I would also like to meet some people that would make good fitness partners, I have got very unfit in the few months that I have been living here as I no longer have a personal trainer or my friends from back home to motivate me.


Look forward to hearing from some of you and hopefully meet some new people.

You missed out on a great evening by just 2 days - about 30-40 forumites met up for a monthly drinks on Friday - so the next one of those will happen early May


before then a few of us go to a regular comedy night at the EDT

Other times we meet at the Open Mic night at the Plough


Various other happenings get advertised on here - just dive in and come along

Seemed like way more than 30-40 to me!

Hi


I am also 25 and I moved to the area in October. I really like living in East Dulwich, but I was just saying to a friend that I dont know anyone in East Dulwich so I should really make the effort to meet new people.


I had to give up playing netball as I started a night course on Monday and Wednesdays so would be interested in joining a sports club in East Dulwich either on Tuesday and Thursdays or even Saturday mornings.


Is anyone allowed to come to the monthly forum drinks?


Gemma

Hello and welcome Cannonni and GemmaT (we are not related)

Any forumites are most welcome to the drinks every month.

The most economical sports club is at Goose Green about ?40 pcm it is run by Fusion who also have a place at harris school and peckham pulse in melon rd.

I wish you well 'pulling'.

Nina & Gemma,


I am nearly 25 (in June) and also would love to make new friends in ED, I have been a bit slack in meeting new people locally, we moved here in July. Sadly I am rubbish at sporting activities like netball, although quite good at the glass of wine afterwards!


I am also new to the forum which has been the domain of Mister Hannah6_6 (also david_carnell) for a while, he went to his first drinks on Friday and had a lovely time, seems to be a brilliant way of meeting people. As far as I understand anyone can go.

Wow there are so many lovely helpful people on here. Its great.


How do you know who is who at these monthly drinks, with so many people it must be difucult to identify the people that you have been talking to?


Hey GemmaT or anyone else for that matter. If you fancy meetiong before the big monthly event that would be cool.


My Name is Nina by the way, I feel that I should post a picture or something, there is something slightly odd about talking to people you can not see and have never seen.

if people are that keen it's worth pointing out that a fair few regulars on the forum go to the Plough to see Keef play at the open-mic night - next one is this coming Friday for example. I'm likely to be there and there are usually half a dozen or so regular forumites + a full pub anyway. It's a good night with some great music so just come along


If you are lilkely to come but worried about how to introduce yourself or recognize us don't worry we can sort that out

    • Well hello Manor men, I went to PM from 74-79. I was in O and Churchill. I can’t remember my tutor but do remember a number of bods. I’ve read a number of posts here about PM and recognise some things. Mudway was an arse. Hardly ever changed his suit.  Guys I remember are Alan Palmer, Wayne Peck ( had an older brother at the school and I think lived Peckham Road, Longleigh House), Owen McClery, Junior Gayle(Wing Chung master), David Banton , Steven Green ( I think he had green eyes), Rodney Evelyn, David Barton, Raymond Gillman (deceased), Neil Warner, Horace Marshaleck (deceased), Steven Watson (two years younger) I have a picture somewhere of the school winning a cross country event against other schools in the South London Press I think.  Teachers - Miss Pugh, Mr and Mrs Webster, Mr Thomas, New French teacher 1978/79 Miss Anspach, Mr Baugh, Mr Nelson, Mr Patel, Mr Sparks, Mr Dowse, African PE teacher, hard as nails, Mr Fenton for careers, Mr Kemel Also, my brother attended Adrian Lewis, a year younger.  
    • One gentleman who kept the boards up to date with community notices i.e. local residents' association events, East Dulwich Community Centre, sadly died a few years ago. He never had the keys to the NX Rd board as this was outside his ward (now known as Dulwich Hill). The council changed the locks on the boards and we do not know who was given the keys. The gentleman's widow carries on with posting community notices but only on the odd couple of boards whose locks have been broken and she can lift the cover. If I remember correctly, it was the Lib. Dem councillors in ED that initiated the boards.
    • Thanks, that’s very sensible advice  and I’ll most likely follow it. I shouldn’t need anything from them, and if anything, they may end up needing me as they’re likely to go first. Really appreciate your support.
    • Hi Jason - we had very difficult neighbours at some stage. Differently so from yours - aggressive, drinking fairly heavily etc… I tried to accommodate their many demands (and their huge dog who howled all day and used our garden as his toilet) until one day, I just started ghosting them. Cut off contact entirely, blocked their mobile phone number, ignored them when they tried to speak to me. I point blank refused to deal with them, including when they needed my signature to extend the lease to secure their new mortgage, which really panicked them. This proved highly effective and they moved soon after (after I made them sweat to sign the freehold docs they needed) I don’t know if you want to do the same if there is a personality disorder involved. But if you do, make sure all your paperwork is in order and there’s absolutely nothing you need from them.  I’m so sorry you’re going through this. It’s really unpleasant.
