Sue

Doesn't she even like the "My Lovely Horse" video??

What a great idea! I haven't seen any publicity for it though?

e-dealer, if builders are working on a house, surely they need somewhere to put their stuff near to that house? I can see it's very irritating, but if they were working on your house, would you feel the same way about it?

And why do you think art should be "mature"?

Be very very careful. Definitely try to get someone you know to keep an eye on your house and on the agent. And I don't think every 6 months is sufficiently frequent. I've had bad experiences (including when I went travelling and let out my house) and so have friends of mine, including one who for some obscure legal reason had no recourse when tenants weren't paying rent and the agent (to whom he was paying an arm and a leg) said there was nothing they could do. As my friend was living in Sydney, it was a nightmare for him trying to sort it out. Use an agent if possible where you have personal recommendations. I came back to find bills unpaid and the landline disconnected (less of a problem these days of mobiles, of course). Plus the agent's (lack of) checking the inventory was absolutely pathetic. I really didn't know what I had actually been paying the agent for, as they appeared to do f*** all.

If they go under, their budgets will be less next year, so why wouldn't they do that?

Mixed up with trees in another road which haven't been pruned for years and years and years?

Mooched around for a while but nobody seemed to want to smile, let alone engage in conversation :( Maybe it was obvious we were just curious, and probably not potential customers :(

Calperson Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > I read that the > Dog is becoming a 'boutique hotel' - surely not > what we need down there. xxxxxx That rumour's been around for ages. They keep putting in planning applications and they keep being turned down. Please let that keep on happening (the turning down) as my stress levels won't stand having to find yet another new venue for http://www.thegooseisout.com :))

That's awful. Not just animals, but children with soft-soled shoes could be hurt. What a truly vile thing to do. I can't see any way at all that they could be there accidentally.

Deliverance, based in Herne Hill. Wide variety of food (Thai, Indian, Chinese, American, Italian, can't remember the rest), delicious, and you can order and pay for the whole lot online. And then check what stage it's got to (being cooked, being packed, on the way etc). They deliver delicious puds as well. And wine. They only deliver to certain postcodes though, and for SE22 I think it's SE22 8** and SE22 9**

I remember Never on a Sunday, don't remember Cool for Cats. When was that?

Thanks for the > Warning. xxxxxx To be fair to Il Mirto and places like it, they are both relatively cheap and relatively small, and probably can't afford to have people taking up a table for hours who aren't spending very much money or they'd very soon go bust. They've already had their fingers burned at that place they started in Nunhead (Esmerelda, was it? Something like that).

Cool! Is that this weekend?

Thanks! Yes they do look good, must go and see them "in the flesh" before the nights get too light!

Anyone got a pic of the lights? I haven't seen them :)

I think it's the one which always makes me laugh because the angel (I think it is) in the window is so out of proportion it looks as if it's had its legs chopped off. Sorry if in bad taste. Presumably Brockley has an older population than ED if it's got four :)) ETA: Or else some dodgy restaurants ..... or bad drivers .....

It's not all cheap pizzas and processed food - you can just avoid those. And the checkout people are lovely.
