The Magnolia (used to be The Magdala)

[HOMum]

What would you name it?

[EDOldie]

How about 'The French Horn' this was the name of one of the original Dulwich Pubs (in the Village, roughly where Barclays Bank is today). Should help the old entente cordial.

[Brendan]

Who cares it?s not gong to come if I call it.

[Jah Lush]

So a mag announces that the Magdala will changing it's name. Will they call it what everyone else calls it then and just call it The Mag?

[HOMum]

haha... what would you name it then Brendan?

[Annasfield]

Why couldn't they have left it yellow? It was quite a useful landmark for telling visting friends where they need to get off the bus.

[HOMum]

good thinking Jah Lush... would be rather fitting..

[EDOldie]

I think The Jah Lash has a certain gravitas to it, no?

[EDOldie]

Sorry that should be Lush of course

made me laught that did

[karter]

you beat me to it lozzy

I think it should be the P.G. Wodehouse. I think it's a pity there's no pub/bar named after him as he went to the college and he said that every suburb he wrote about was based on ED, and it even got a mention in a few books.

[karter]

I think it should be called 'Rose's place'

[lozzyloz]

Well in that case my vote would be for the B.Monkhouse. He thought ED was a joke.

[benjaminty]

If they start to sell ?13 sarnies ..... it won't matter what you call it ... I won't be going. I want the angry chef back and give me the burgers and fries I so loved.... *stamping foot and huffing*

Am I imagining this or is it a "Le Chandelier" venture? Le Mag?

The Grande Ponce

[Sonners]

But will it be one of those name changes where you just call it by its old name regardless of what its new one is? Our local at work is still referred to its original name (for those of us old enough to remember) and it is now on its third appellation...

[Jah Lush]

I can understand that. I still think of The Vale as The Cherry Tree despite several name changes over the years.

[jaybee82]

I'd call it 'The Fat Chav' after the clientelle that used to grace it.

I was thinking The Rose.

[HonaloochieB]

The Mott The Hoople has a nice ring to it.

"I'm off to the Mott for a couple of jars dear"

Or,

"If Terry The Bastard calls, tell him I'm in the Hoople getting wankered and he can whistle for his dough"

It'd be great.
