Like, cool your boots, momma.

Gold Lee are hep cats and have probably taken the 'phone off the hook to partake of a little number or two before busting their collective hump catering to the needs of the local squid heads.

Don't get so frazzled you might work for the man, it don't mean you have to bring all that uptightness back to Casa Rosie.

It's bad for your chakra.


Switch off your mind and float downstream.


Give at least a ?1.50 tip.


Peace, baby.

You know what they say Moos, if you can't remember the sixties you're lying about your age.

Or something.

Not been checking the forum for a while but finally, amongst the boredom posters, attention seekers and idle banter we have an issue of utmost local importance - the best salt and chilli squid.


This classic British chinese dish is often on the takaway menu as a starter and comprises battered squid, rock salt and chopped red chilli often with some diced spring onions for good measure. The best is lightly crisp on the outside with tender (not rubbery) squid within and cooked fresh rather than heated up in the microwave.


Rosie - god bless you sister, for I share your affliction and have found an unlikely champion in Cafe Noodle by Franklins. It beats Mr Liu's and Gold Lee hands down BUT ONLY FOR CHILLI SQUID. I actually buy my S&C squid there before going to the mighty Liu's for everything else. Pick n mix chinese. Very important. Let me know what you think.

Soooo not cool, Moos. Going around punching people would have put you on the side of The Man. Female Division.

Did the hippies put their faces in front of billy clubs/gun butts, for nothing?

Did the yippies encourage book stealing/anarchy for the good of their health?

Did The Fugs deliberately not learn to play on the first rcord just to mess with us?


Answers; No; Maybe; It's The Fugs, it'll involve some sort of theory, so who knows?

Well now, they've only gone and hijacked it, but let me tell you MrBen, I am very excited at your news. I haven't yet had the good fortune to try it out, but let me assure you that I shall be doing so at the very first opportunity (it turned out, when I got off my lazy arse and walked round there, that Gold Lee were in fact open - maybe they just forgot to pay the phone bill).


I love the squid.

    • Just had a carpets cleaned by Steve Nourse and his colleague at short notice. They are lovely guys and the cleaning was quick and carpets look great. Good value. 
    • Looking for tickets for 2 adults one child under 2 and one child over 2. However, please let me know if you have any combination of tickets you are no longer able to use.  Thanks 07756110500
    • all I said was "take a pro cash stance too far" - what twisting have I done?   plenty of good arguments for retention of cash - but let's not get too detached from reality either lest we go back to trading livestock   But to go back to your post DD:   "Or don't stop using cash" Yep plenty of people will agree with this - nothing controversial here   "Stop using your phone or even your watch as a banknote" - getting a bit weird now - why not - it's super convenient for both users and businesses. And far easier to keep a track of your balance using your electronic wallet than old systems of cheques taking days to clear, how much did I take from cashpoint 2 days ago etc. But people will differ so whatever works   "God only knows how much damage we're doing to the planet because all the above must require a hell of a lot of resources and juice from the grid" - big straw man argument here. Why bring this in? Unless you are also suggesting we don't buy any goods not made from within a 5 mile radius and nothing transported by air or sea? "a big lump of plastic with a screen and full of personal information that can be easily gleamed." I've had my phone stolen but nothing was lost because it was secure.I've been mugged and lost cash and valuable. It's not a binary thing   "your sky rocket with a phone in your hand. It's become a source of dopamine for many. It's an addiction for many."  Proper overreaching now
    • I agree with the posts that housing is an urgent need in Peckham and throughout Southwark. But as Alice says, it’s the percentage of social / affordable housing that matters. In October last year, there were over 4,200 households on the Council’s waiting list for housing in Peckham alone (over 17 thousand across Southwark). But the developer is only offering 35% affordable housing (which means that 65% will be unaffordable). Both Southwark Council and the GLA say that a big development like this should provide 50% affordable housing.   Re-development of the site is a great opportunity to make the town centre “cleaner, safer and more sustainable and welcoming” (borrowing Nigello’s great words). Is this dense development going to do that, when it provides no real green and open space where people can spend time outside and nature can help us tackle the growing problems of climate change like absorbing flood water, cooling the air on baking summer days? Are 7-storey buildings along Rye Lane (where the average buildings are 2-3 storeys) going to be welcoming to users of the town centre? How will the development impact on Peckham’s economy? Currently there is busy daytime commercial activity of shops providing for different demographics and needs including a rich offering of international groceries and other products, alongside a thriving night-time economy. I can’t see anything in the proposal that suggests how it will enhance and empower the local economy. Yes please, let’s have a great development on this site that enhances the town centre. This means not letting the developer get away with packing people into dense blocks that turn their back on the town centre and which will be a recipe for urban decay in the long run. Peckham deserves better than this!
