sorry for crying off early (will work out being off day of and after drinks one of these months!!), but fab to see you all again. Is great to have a night out practically on my doorstep with such a great group of friends.

BN5, annaj & SM will all be pleased to hear no lasting damage seems to have occured from my lamppost bashing incidence... and made it home without bumping into any!!


Fingers crossed work'll be nice over the w/e!! x

Jaws and I had a great night albeit people had to lip read what I was trying to say!!


Was so great to see sm, David c, moos, b belle, and many others.. Also great to see I'm no longer classed as a newbie as we had two lovely new peeps tonight!


Looking forward to the next ones already!

Feeling 0.0005% better now


I don't remember speaking to JimmyD after all his offers of drink as well. Did you make it James?


I thought the Herne was quite a good venue - nice big garden space, and the conservatory was a good spot to put us indoors. As ever I never got to speak to everyone I wanted. And I don't remember making much sense to those I did. :-$


Kudos to strawbs for making it out with that throat as well. Jaws good to meet you as well


newbies thin on the ground - but nice to meet you Richard (and Mrs Richard whose name I can remember but as shes not a forumite I shall omit)


Good to have a chat with bob s and mrs bob s too


Ahhh ... some Andrews liver salts. Excellent idea

You are of course refering to the long established, 10pm talking rubbish watershed. Anything anyone says in a pub after 10pm can't be taken seriously and it would also be terribly bad form to be expected to live up to any promises made after the watershed.


It?s one of the drinking rules innit.


thanks for a great night all. I think Natalie must have hit me in the head with a hammer in my sleep again last night.

A day of study lost in favour of sitting eating crap and watching poor afternoon telly - god, i needed a night out! Nice to meet richard and mrs.richard (echos seanmac on memory issues), completely missed Bob S, and failed yet again to say hello to strawbs and jaws - sorry guys, a nervous man with a reduced alcohol tolerance. Have got to that funny "comfort zone" stage of having been to a couple of forum drinks and met a few people, now target those I've already met. Will endevour to be more sociable next time.


I assume that the post-pub chez carnell group are all feeling on top of the world... :-S


Motion to have the 10pm bullshit watershed brought forward to 9ish - i'm out of boozing practice so started talking crap a lot earlier than CWALD... (although was I overtaken by sheer quality ;-))


Smashing times, all, many thanks.


[edited to clarify that i was talking crap, not taking it!]

Kind of you to rush to the defense of my truffles PGC, but don't worry he's not being rude about my confectionary, I've only just got home with the truffles.

Goodness knows what he's been eating to feed the hangover, I haven't checked the fridge yet.....


Classy run round the playground last night by the way.

aah, looks like I missed a good night :( will definitely try to get to the next one!


My plan was, like MadWorld74, to stay off the booze as I'm also doing a run on sunday, probably the same one (but not for charity, just to prove to myself I'm physically capable of it).


However, despite my best intentions I might have ended up drinking with work colleagues all evening so have a bit of a headache. damn.


Looking forward to the photos for this one if there were any. Were you there Andrew?


ps I like you 10pm rule Brendan, it gets me off the hook for promising to run and win the Barry Barry at the last forum drinks. I'm sure I said that at about 1.30am !!

To be honest, I think you made the Barry Barry promise at about 10.01pm, Franki. Still qualifies under Brendan's rules, so you are still off the hook.


Andrew was there, and he took photos - feel sorry for anyone he snapped after 10pm; the rule applies to photography as well as conversation.

It's nearly 24 hrs since this all started and I stil hurt!


Had a marvellous time however. The Herne was a good summer venue with excellent real beer.


Richard and Mona (people, people, come on!) were lovely newcomers, Strawbs the perfect wife and I have a fellow Laphroig lover in PGC (if not Chav).


Lovely to have a few folks back to mine afterwards, hopefully you're all suffering as much as me.


Oh, and Chav.....I remember every torrid word of what you said but will keep it to myself until I need a favour! Your secrets are (currently) safe.


I'm on holiday for the next one so see you all in two months....

    • Just had this team/ company demolish a front wall, dig out the trees, build a wall, a place for the bins, landscape the front with stones and the liked and lay a new path and porch with a bull nose stone step. We are very happy with their work, diligent and attentive to detail, (it’s always difficult to know until things have bedded in for a few years but) good quality. Excellent communication. They’re very local, they know the East Dulwich clay, that the buildings and grounds are essentially mobile, and very dependant on the temperature and moisture in the ground. I think the key things for us - busy, always in and out, young kids etc - were we felt perfectly safe with them here, I don’t think they mucked about with pricing or quality once we were set (bits and bobs come up and were effortlessly sorted) and all in all, over the time it took for them to get the right quality (for them! the finish is good) we quite liked the team. We’d have them back in a moment, and are very happy to recommend them.
    • Sorry to hear that this is happening to your son. East Dulwich Grove doesn't fall into Dulwich Hill ward, it is split depending on the postcode it would either be Goose Green SNT or Dulwich Village SNT, you may check which one using the link below. On the website would also be the team and any events being held in the future. If it is an emergency please call 999 or non-emergencies 101. https://www.met.police.uk/area/your-area/
    • CIC is not the appropriate vehicle for a fund-raising intermediary.  CICs are for businesses that typically sell something or provide a service for social good  but are not for profit; a community cafe or arts centre, or an IT skills training centre for  unemployed people. it costs £65 to set up  a CIC, the scrutiny is less than for a full charity, and the administrative burden is pretty low if you don’t file accounts. It’s hard to prove a negative, but if you were trying to build a credible, positive case for giving money to street collectors for CityHive CIC, that might be a little harder still… tho thank you, Zahid for joining the Forum to give it a go.
