Sue

I would welcome a ban on smoking outside pubs and restaurants where there are seating areas. Even in the days when I smoked (heavily) I didn't enjoy sitting in a smoky atmosphere, particularly when eating.

Are they the photos near the top? Can't see many moths? Am I looking in the wrong place?

I checked my Freeview channels earlier, and they all seem to be fine :) Fingers crossed that continues!

Oh God, this is bad news. Must go and check mine. Have grandchildren staying soon and it will be disastrous if there is no cBeebies :))

That doesn't mean to say I'm not sorry that it's closing. What's the Ivy House got to do with it? That's a completely different sort of place altogether, in a different sort of location, aiming at a completely different sort of customer. The Draft House was hardly aiming to be a community owned, community pub, was it? It didn't have a purpose-built stage and a room suitable for music and other events, did it? Unless I missed it. The Ivy House has a very motivated, enthusiastic, intelligent team behind it, and if I didn't think it would do well I wouldn't have bought shares in it. Why don't you lay off perpetually trying to put it down?

I look forward to seeing the photos. I'm OK with photos, they don't flap about around you :)

You can sit outside at The Begging Bowl in Bellenden Road :) ETA: It's on the front by the road though. Still quite pleasant.

Please vote for The Ivy House if you haven't already! This is such a brilliant local initiative!

Totally different environment, Fox!

Charming.

?50k? That seems very cheap. How long is the lease for? Only went in here once, so I suppose so did others. Sorry that it's closing though :(

I've got lots of clipboards! But it wasnt me. Even though I'm nearly as drunk/off my head as HonaloochieB appears to be :))

No chance. How on earth would a community run post office work? It's not a local thing, it's UK-wide :)

I think it might not be deep enough, Nigello, but probably somebody more knowledgeable can say. I don't think the shade is a problem. I was worried about lack of sunlight, but my tub gets almost no sunlight, but has attracted frogs, hooray!

Or > their general nocturnal flappings? xxxxxxx I have no idea, but I guess it must stem from childhood. Maybe keeping silkworms for a while. Found the whole process a bit yuk rather than fascinating :( A frogwatch would be good!

Hope it all goes well Lousmith, but I have an irrational need to avoid moths, especially large ones :)

Exact date not set but will be late Summer/early Autumn according to the info shareholders have received. Can't wait!

Or you could dump it on her new doorstep.

Don't know how I ever found the time to work :)) Though The Goose is practically a full-time job ..... no skiving there :) http://www.thegooseisout.com

Got out of bed the wrong side again, Foxy? :)

"The tranquil "The Gardens" and Peckham Rye Park are close by" The garden in the middle of "The Gardens" is a private garden for residents of that road, isn't it?
