Weeeeeeeh.

The undersigned do respectfully request the proprieters of The Castle to install some pole dancers.

A couple of three or so a night would be alright we reckon, perhaps Thursday to Saturday.

During the day just stick the telly on. Racing preferably.

Anyway no point poncing about, is it a yes or a no?


Respectfully yours

I drove past on friday night on my scooter - and was greeted by a charming little scallywag dressed in a very shiny Chelsea kit going 'gimme some pizza maaaaate' onto to be told by his similarly charming father to 'shut it you little fuka'


I wonder if the landlord could refurbish the punters too?

That's a terrible thing to happen to

someone. I hope you've recovered from this dreadful ordeal.


Re: sprucing up the punters, perhaps we could petition the powers that be for a more middle class variety of drinker? The current bunch are not exactly in keeping with the utopian image of ED that I was promised. Not exactly organic, if you catch my drift (although the irony is that they are, for the most part, locally sourced).

Locally sourced builders etc are pretty much restricted to one pub in ED now - being the Castle. Will be interesting to see if they achieve a more balanced mix of ED residents with the new facelift, I'm sure all of ED types can mix together?

I don't think builders are not necessarily all bad - the ones we have used are all public school educated... which is a bit surreal (conversations about existentialism etc).

i do think 8 year old kids outside a pup with a pissed father at 10.30 on a friday night is a bit off though.

Went in on Sat night for a couple of drinks. It wasn't that busy really. On the whole it was OK and much, much cheaper than the pubs along Lordshop Lane.


Still smells of paint. It reminded me of a Wetherspoons pub probably because it had just been done out and still needs to be worn in a bit.


There was one child running around in the bar at about 10pmish. I don't mind that though as I don't have to look after kids that are not my own!

    • My understanding is the "free event" is 100% Gala, nothing to do with the council. Obviously Gala will still make money from the food & drink that they are trying to coerce punters into buying on their social media posts. Their costs will be negligible due to already having the infrastructure in place for Gala. So Gala are trying to appear community minded by providing this "free event", but the real goal is to set a precedent for a fourth day's festival - which surely no one could possibly object to?!? - in preparation for applying (again) for two three-day festivals spread over two weekends. It's only another two days, right, and the site & equipment is already there, so why would anyone object?!? More money for the council, much more money for Gala, win-win right? But yet another week of our park taken away from us, too, and another 18,000 people trampling & littering the park, and another week of disturbance for the native birds & wildlife...
    • Meson Don Felipe on The Cut was my go to place for many years. Though it's now many years since I was there. 10-15 minute walk from the Tate. If you go can you tell me what it's like nowadays?
    • Doubt you would have got much change out of £150.00 for battery and certainly having forked out for it, best to use your car. I recently sold  my car via webuyanycar.com - very pleasant experience & was roughly what I was expecting. Pop your bangers reg jnto their website to get an idea of price - they do send e mails once a fortnight/month just as an aid for you. Easy enough to delete - don’t even have to read valuation. They literally buy any car - if you can’t get it to them, they will charge you to get it there or recommend a co that will do it for you. Must say, mine was a 2014 reg and whilst a bit suspicious, paid extra to get money into my account as needed it for next car but was assured funds had I not gone down route I took would be in my account within 5 days. I now live in the country - every time I have been back to Dulwich and surrounding area, normally get a fine for driving at wrong time or parking at  wrong time so if I drive now, park in West or East Dulwich and do everything else by public transport and walking.  Were I still to be living in ED then before I left was pondering this very issue but since I have been back regularly for health reason I no longer drive but take the train and then buses, walk or Uber. Much cheaper than running a car and had I stayed, that would have been the course I would have taken. I don’t go out everyday, have an allotment or job to go to or family so in my case, would be cheaper not to have a car.  Was truely shocked   at the cost of second hand cars…..but where I now live only has a smattering of buses so no choice but to have wheels to get from A to B etc.          
    • If you don't use the car often then suggest disconnect the battery between use by undoing the earth (negative / minus sign) cable from the battery and the battery will then last longer between use. Remember, central locking, alarm, clock, etc won't work with battery disconnected and wit ours I have to lock the doors with central locking before disconnecting battery as only have key on one door (leave bonnet open before locking doors). Hope this helps
