Come to a Dulwich Hamlet FC, a good mixture of people to chat to.

New to the area and the country (moved from Australia). We’ve been trying to get out and about by doing the pub quiz on Tuesdays at the great exhibition… at least gets some sort of interaction!

Meeting people in your mid-late 30s is hard.!

Oru space have a chatty Wednesday and offer free mediation classes also on Wednesday. Worth checking out for interaction and meeting new people.

Join a choir?

come to a singaround (you don’t have to sing) Check out the goose is out or Dulwich folk - both friendly local groups.

join the Dulwich Society/ Dulwich U3A?

Church groups - there is a men’s group at St Barnabas.

Not sure if there is a male equivalent of the WI…

I think you probably mean meditation rather than mediation, though I may be wrong 🤣

Ah! An opportunity to promote our Singarounds!

Second Sunday of the month at The Ivy House in Stuart Road,  Nunhead, London's first community owned pub and a lovely friendly space with all ages.

Check out the FAQ section of our website for lots more info (you don't have to sing, but if you do want to, anything goes - no restrictions at all, except no very very long songs)

Https://www.thegooseisout.com

Don't be put off by the fact that we are a "folk club" - our Singarounds are different every time, depending on who turns up, but there is usually a great mixture of genres, although often people do sing "folk" songs.

It isn't an open mic - we don't use the stage, and we don't use mics.

People mingle before it starts, at the breaks and at the end. You would soon get to know people.

There are all ages, from very young (over 18 though after 8pm!) to very old  (over 80!), though the mix on any particular night again depends on who turns up.

The 484 bus goes from Goose Green to the end of Stuart Road, or it's a nice walk through Peckham Rye park, at least  in the daylight hours!

Paul Bridge, are you listening? Or do you just join the Forum, post one message in the middle of the night and then disappear...?

I did wonder if the original post was a joke, given the reference to discussing "interesting things" without giving any clue as to what his interests actually were ....

Maybe he is just sitting back and quietly laughing at the responses 😥
