Tulse Hill news, chitter chatter and gossip

[Smick]

I thought it was more likely to be taxis getting adverts and work vans getting their company details all over them.

 

[Nanker Phelge]

Anything happening while I'm away....?

 

[Smick]

No. I've just been to the Co and it's dead. Even the traffic seemed light.

 

[Nanker Phelge]

I'll start a fight when I'm back...liven things up a bit...

 

[Smick]

Let me know in advance so I can come down to watch.

through a certain amount of fuckwittery I left my bike locked up on the bent bike rack right outside the White Hart on the corner there for well over 24 hours with all my lights on it - only one lock. Was still there when gaijinboy went to pick it up tonight! eme - sound familiar?

The shouty red head is in the coop again but she was less shouty today...

Strowagers update - open for business but a bit at sixes and sevens. So handy!

I think the original owner sold the business as a going concern...Are some Indian chaps running it now?

They'd probably be quite handy when working in a DIY shop...

Indian Chaps are always handy when doing looking for the right screw.

Perhaps handy when screwing too.

 

[Nanker Phelge]

I wouldn't know....I hire people in for that sort of thing...

 

[Maharani]

Do they wear chaps? You must have noticed...

I was busy studying Punjabi when they were round...

all that banging put me right off me verb conjugation..

...and don't get me started on the morphological and syntactic structures.

Try saying all that in Punjabi ;0)

A lot of the English language has origins in Sanskrit. I can name a few:
Pyjama; chub, juganout, chutney....

I often feel like the old Indian man from goodness gracious me that boils everything down to being Indian. He was funny.

Punch....

The drink though....not the whack to side of the head...

I think 'fisty cuffs' is Indian...

I think 'fisty cuffs' is Indian...

Especially if you happen to punch an Indian...

Strowagers update - this item about a West Norwood business is in the wrong forum.

No! Don't you start. Tell me where West Norwood begins and ends and same for Tulse Hill. I know there's a fine geographic line between the two. And who gives a shit anyway?!

If the Tulse Hill Hotel is actually in Herne Hill then Strowagers can be in Tulse Hill and we'll discuss it in this forum. So there. Tulse Hill chitter chatter would be pretty boring if we just talked about the coop and the two pubs in the area.

 

[Nanker Phelge]

Postcode cop alert...

 

[ohmyliver]

And surely Tulse Hill is more of a state of being, than postcode. Or something.

Tell me where West Norwood begins and ends and same for Tulse Hill.

The border is the railway bridge. Maybe the fire station at a push.

yes... but we Tulse Hillians cross borders into forn parts - we're adventurers, pioneers some might say. We don't cower behind a railway bridge or a lethal gyratory screaming "there be dragons"!!

edit - what i'm trying to say is - we also use Strowagers... please feel free to update the West Norwood thread...

Just because you use it, it doesn't mean it's in TH. If you go swimming in Brixton Rec, would you post about it here too?

I don't want to be the Onket of the south, but...

Never said it was in Tulse Hill thread but it is the closest hardware shop. I wouldn't post about going for a swim in Brixton Rec but I would certainly post about it reopening if it was the nearest swimming pool! rolleyeye, slappyhead, stickyouttongue...

anyways, I guess we like to live dangerously here on the Tulse Hill thread.. I think we've even discussed locations as far away as oooooh.. Elephant and Castle!!
