Hi, do any of you guys visit the east dulwich forum?

I find that there are some incredibly funny members on it.

When I lived in Forest Hill I posted on se23.com

Now I live in Sydenham I post here.

I believe that if you decide you are going to join a forum to discuss local issues, you need to be a member of just one forum - the most appropriate one to your location.

Having said that, if you find you have made some good friends there, and you then move, that's different!!!!

I lurk on it.

It is really, really funny.

I see where you're coming from Barty. I live in Forest hill, have lived in Sydenham but have never lived in east dulwich. Having said that I'm on all 3 of the area forums as I believe that they encompass 'my area' as I use Sydenham high street and Lorship lane, the latter more often.
I also enjoy using the east dulwich forum as it's pretty unique in that it is incredibly busy and very very funny

See for yourself.

I have the occasional lurk on the EDF - as you say it is often very funny, and it is a much busier forum than ours - the number and quality of posts every day is incredible, and I'm amazed that some of the more frequent posters are also able to hold down full-time jobs at the same time! That said, I don't really feel the need to post there because I don't live in East Dulwich (nor do I have any great burning desire to do so, though I'm not knocking it), and there are more issues pertinent to Sydenham that I feel the urge to post about. I also have a greater interest in posting on the STF because I have met several other posters, which isn't the case (for me) with the EDF.

I've joined up.

STF is my fix of banter combined with local issues, and EDF is going to be purely a source of banter!

Yes, I saw you'd joined up and have started baiting cyclists on there too!

Oi I never started it!!! Malicious rumours...

Bigbadwolf, thanks for the tip.

Just spent a very amusing 10 minutes (I'm at work) looking through some of the threads.

The one on The Clockhouse had me in stitches - I used to drink in there all the time, and fondly remember Frances and Peter.

HonaloochieB should be a comedy writer - if he isnt already.

Thanks again - its now in My Favourites.

I'm glad you're enjoying it Fishcox. A lot of the regular forum members are from Sydenham and Forest hill not just Dulwich. Why don't dip your toes in the water and post your own thread.

I think BBW is on commission.....

I might just do that our kid - it certainly has a different vibe from STF, although we do have the potential to 'open up' a bit more in here, and make things more entertaining.

I am a great fan of flippancy, and so shall use the East Dulwich Forum, for such merriment.

Hear hear!

Hello BBW how the devil are you?.

Barty · Post by **Barty** » 24 Jun 2009 11:36

Certainly finding it very different to here.

Main difference.....here, I felt at home within a dozen posts.

There......its taking some work.

Baglady popped her cherry in the east dulwich forum's lounge yesterday evening. Any more takers?

ooh just posted on the ED Forum. Feel like I've cheated. Feels like I've got off with a posh bird, and have kept it secret from my 20-a-day tracksuit-clad wife.
Oh it was heaven just holding hands with the ED Forum, we spoke about the moon and stars and everything and nothing. She told me about about the success of the Green & Blue wine-bar and deli, and I chatted about whether Musti's pound shop would re-open or not.

And just as she was about to take me to another Lordship Lane winebar, when the 176 shipped up and took me back to reality.
But those fleeting moments in SE22 will stay with me forever ...
