Damn! A week before pay day. Now, what with this credit crunch and whatnot I'm having to do some severe belt tightening. In fact my belt is now so tight I can barely breath. I want to go this as I haven't been in what used to be the Ivanhoe in 20 years and it looks very nice in there now, although the previous place wasn't bad, just a bit empty. Anyway, we'll see.

Well, I was going just on postcode. Although Copleston Road (I always think Copleston Copleston Copleston pie.. not quite right I know but can't help it) is just over the tracks and that's Peckham. And East Dulwich station is just a hop, skip and a jump away!


However, I'm happy to be corrected.

Giles would never set foot anywhere outside East Dulwich, serious issues with Agoraphobia that boy!!

So it's usually just a matter of lying to him, Estate Agents' blurb being very useful in that respect, I fully plan to get him north of the river on the strength of a Foxton's East Dulwich brochure alone one day

Goodness me, what a lot of threatened self-harm on the Forum today. Stop it you lot.


I don't think anyone was querying why we should go to the Hoopers, were they? It's just that it's a bit pretentious to say you're in ED* when you're in Camberwell or Peckham.


*and before I was aware of the Forum, I must admit I thought ED was just a quite nice inexpensive suburb. Now of course I have been educated and know it's an overpriced Nirvana.


Edited to put the 'a' in educated.....

Hey the Goose has a Hallowe'en night - e'en, even - at Hoopers the previous Friday :)


Not that I'm taking any opportunity to promote our events, at all :)


Siobhan Parr (aka Shivers) and Ain - both brilliant.


And to get back on topic - for once, the Goose at Hoopers doesn't clash with the forum drinks, hurrah!!!!

    • Why jump on the OP more than the shoplifter?  It is pretty crap to just walk in to a shop and blatantly steal stuff and it does seem to be happening more often which is depressing.  I've witnessed it several times in the last couple of years sometimes with groups of shoplifters who rush in and quickly steal a whole load of stuff.  It does seem to me to be becoming more common.  It's particularly galling when it's stealing non essential stuff like beer unless the person is an alcoholic and not being done because of poverty and hunger. All it does is put the prices up for those that pay and encourage others to just take stuff too.  I guess the OP just wanted to share their anger.  Not sure what a lone security guard can do which is also depressing because if there's no consequence for thieves then such behaviour will inevitably increase. ☹️
    • That description could apply to many people. Why have you said what her skin colour was but not what she was wearing? What do you think will be achieved by posting this on here? If you think the security man should have stopped her, would it not be more constructive to complain to the Co-op? And what has one shoplifter got to do with "the state of this country"? There have always been thieves.
    • I'm selling these for £10 if you are interested.
