  1. Also not on Lordship Lane, but I may be the last to discover that the premises which had been occupied by Ganapati's takeaway service in Maxted Road is now another South Indian takeaway called Malabar Feast. I haven't tried it yet, but their menu looks yummy (I picked up their flyer on the way past). https://malabarfeast.co.uk/ Though I'm hoping the photos on the website don't do it justice. Free delivery, minimum order £15.
  2. Tree works are taking up a lane and there are massive jams in both directions. Probably best avoided until the works are finished.
  3. He is still around, just not posting on here 🦊
  4. Well, this thread has taken a jolly turn 🙄
  5. Yeh, GK ale is rubbish 🙄
  6. Thanks for the information, but what a pain. I would have thought the heavy machinery could have shared the path with walkers?
  7. 1. How do you know it is a man? 2. Pugwash posted on this thread on Friday. There have been lots of helpful suggestions on here. You could private message Pugwash if you want them to reply specifically to you. I think it's a bit off to publicly complain about a lack of response to your post, however helpful. You said "if you live near Underhill Road." Perhaps they don't 🙄
  8. Everybody knows what Wiki is, surely? And it's quicker to type. On another topic above, I see Screwfix have opened a branch in the Walworth Road, where surely parking would be even more difficult for builders than in Lordship Lane. Are they suddenly expanding all over the country, or is it just round here?
  9. Is it? We often go out for Saturday lunch, and this would definitely be on our list of options!
  10. I haven't been able to delete this, and I no longer need the information 🙄
  11. Hope he isn't living there, in this weather.
  12. So what is "proper South London"? I grew up in Streatham in the fifties, does that count as "proper South London"? It doesn't seem to have changed much. And at what point does a place that is "proper South London" become a place that is no longer "proper South London" ?
  13. And me! We pay for gas and electricity according to how much we use, so how is water different?
  14. I've been here thirty years, and vans of guys in riot gear with guns in Silvester Road is not what I would have expected either pre gentrification or now. So, does anyone know what it was about, because it certainly isn't normal in this area in my experience.
  15. Suppose there isn't another bike nearby and now they've got a load of heavy shopping?
  16. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2024/jan/07/dead-letter-office-royal-mail-wrestles-with-a-difficult-future?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Other
  17. I had a prawn Madras in Mirash last week. It wasn't good. They seemed to have used dried shrimps. A lot of them, but dried, and I don't think they had been properly rehydrated. They were a strange texture. I don't recall ever coming across this before, but on the other hand it's probably decades since I last had a prawn Madras. And they did make me cucumber raita to go with it, albeit a very small portion.
  18. In 1986, Royal Mail was split into Royal Mail Letters, Royal Mail Parcels, and Post Office Counters. In 1987, Post Office Counters Ltd became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Royal Mail and then in 2001, Post Office Counters Ltd became a public limited company and was renamed Post Office Ltd.
  19. I just want to highly recommend my lovely plasterer Rob, who has just repaired my kitchen ceiling after the Christmas Day leak disaster for less than half the cost the plumber told me I'd have to pay, including materials, and done a very good job. He has done excellent work for me in the past. His number is 07791 493220.
  20. If you are referring to Malumbu's post, perhaps you should re-read his last paragraph ..... Unless I have misunderstood it (quite likely 🤣 )
  21. It wasn't the shelf label that was wrong in this case. It was the price charged at the till. I have complained online, pointing out that many other people must also have been overcharged. I await the response, though I'm not holding my breath 🙄
  22. I saw the Stones at Tooting Odeon. Front row. Must have been early sixties. On topic, I reckon either Poundland or Screwfix. But preferably a cinema!
  23. Station not in use. Just heard from my road What'sApp group. I don't think the photo is AI. The tree is very green, but I presume evergreen. Trains are all cancelled, so not AI then. 😮
