I wonder if they still have the dance floor (and a band playing Showaddywaddy covers). I guess I was around 11 or 12, saw my first X rated film in the cinema (I think Barbara Steisand was in it but I was sent to bed before the end), and fell madly in love with a girl with long brown hair who I never had the nerve to talk to.East of Dulwichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15794249485351069213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748453999833334873.post-59001425479535870972007-07-21T14:56:00.000+01:002007-07-21T14:56:00.000+01:00Lovely Ingenious Rose,I found the link to Faliraki...Lovely Ingenious Rose,<BR/><BR/>I found the link to Faliraki on the internet - I assure you it is no-one I know!<BR/><BR/>Darling Debio,<BR/><BR/>You should never be homesick - it sounds as though you live in paradise.<BR/><BR/>Perfect I Beatrice,<BR/><BR/>You could never ever be old hat!<BR/><BR/>Dear Omega Mum,<BR/><BR/>Would you believe we haven't had a spot of rain at all?

It really is Dulwich by the sea, with a more upmarket version of Tesco!<BR/><BR/>Sweet Lovely @themill,<BR/><BR/>You see body boarding and surfing are so very now, a skill which every child should acquire, just like skiing and horse riding. It is my duty as a parent to see the poppets are afforded every opportunity.<BR/><BR/>Darling Stay at home dad,<BR/><BR/>The weather here has really been divine.

A coffee morning by the sea.<BR/><BR/>Lovely The Good Woman,<BR/><BR/>I know, Rick really has taken over, the Cornish equivalent of Tesco!<BR/><BR/>Dear I Beatrice,<BR/><BR/>Indeed we shall be visiting there tomorrow! Cornwall appeals as a family holiday destination for Dulwich as we limit the size of our carbon footprint, we can keep our enormous four wheeled drive vehicles with us, we can indulge in fine dining and are just a short dash from London if any urgent issues arise in the world of private equity! Also our chums get to play at the seaside with their chums and the beauty treatments are amazing. Later in the summer when the family holiday is finished, the ladies of Dulwich holiday en masse in Marakesh to recover from two weeks with the children.dulwichmumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17106294077068237863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748453999833334873.post-52533647475890707122007-07-19T10:01:00.000+01:002007-07-19T10:01:00.000+01:00If you get bored with Rick and Jamie, there's a ve...If you get bored with Rick and Jamie, there's a very nice National Trust restaurant on St Michael's Mount, with never a celebrity chef (or a celebrity indeed) in sight.... <BR/><BR/>But perhaps that's not the reason why Dulwich goes to Cornwall?<BR/><BR/>(Come to think of it, why DOES Dulwich bother to go to Cornwall at all?)I Beatricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15671136605194399080noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748453999833334873.post-29844868866491159942007-07-19T08:21:00.000+01:002007-07-19T08:21:00.000+01:00I didn't realise Rick's empire was so all encompas...I didn't realise Rick's empire was so all encompassing.
