The Ivy House (community pub in Nunhead) has gluten-free pasta on its new Spring/Summer menu. http://www.ivyhousenunhead.com/docs/menu.pdf The spicy chorizo pasta is delicious :) ETA: It doesn't any more (30 May) :(

Many moons ago I had to dig up all the (small) shrubs I had in my front garden and resort to having plants in pots because my insurance company claimed that the shrubs had contributed to differential movement of the bay/rest of the house, so be careful if you are planting anything in the ground near to the house :(

My car is in dire need of a wash - I'm not that fussy, but it hasn't been washed since the Dust Incident :))

Very very sorry to hear this. Sadly, if you are able to replace it, you may need to consider chaining the pot down in some way, or otherwise find a way of making it very hard to steal. Some time back there was a spate of window box theft in ED. The police said that the thieves had gone round the neighbourhood with a van. It was just before Mother's Day. My three were taken in broad daylight :( It's hard to believe that people would stoop so low as to take somebody's plants.

Eh?

I cannot believe this thread is hidden away in the family section - where I have never previously visited as my daughter is grown up!! I am on the verge of getting a new kitchen and this is very helpful. At least I didn't find it AFTER I'd finished the kitchen!

Well done, James.

I'm in Ulverscroft Road too. As soon as I saw the badge saying ADT I told them I wasn't interested. The guy said "Not interested in what?" I said "ADT". He didn't try to keep me talking, he just walked off.

There's a tiny narrow little house in Herne Hill, isn't there, on the opposite side of the road from the Half Moon? Or is that just a shop? Or have I imagined it altogether?!

I thought Ulverscroft Road had already been earmarked for a cycle hangar. I have reserved a space via cyclehoop. I just wondered when it was going to be installed. Presumably Southwark Council already recognise the need, as I thought they had approved it for this road?

Must have been the evening Dan Maitland was singing soon after they opened, I think. The food wasn't exactly memorable, anyway - certainly sushi wasn't available!

Why is this thread not in the lounge? Most of it has nothing to do with the defaced poster.

We were very happy with Tokiko who did ours, but we don't sell things through it. http://www.thegooseisout.com

I always vote. Though often these days it seems to be just voting for the ones you dislike least ......

It was on the market for a similar price ie over ?800k, but I don't know how much it went for. It has been "done up", but only has three beds. It seems to have taken some time to sell it, but I guess the market has now caught up with what seemed very overpriced in January. It was originally owned by a housing association, so I hope they got a decent price for it before the developer got his/her mitts on it ......

Thanks Socks! ETA: But presumably they may be plastered with Halifax advertising??? ETA: I see they are a "proud partner of the Big Lunch" :)

Sounds scary, hope nobody was hurt or major damage done?

Passed by yesterday and it now says bar/cafe or words to that effect on the window, so - guess it's deffo going to be that, then :))

Any news on when the Ulverscroft Road one will be installed?

Jeremy Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > There's a basement too though, innit. xxxxxxx Yeh but that's quite small too, n'est ce pas? Perhaps it'll just be a shop for their "other objets", as described on the website Vik gave the link to. Nitpick: Shouldn't it be "other objects" or "autre objets"?? Though not sure the "autre" is correct as is remembered from my French O level in, oh, 1965 :)) :)) :))

It's a very small space to be selling furniture in, isn't it?
