I agree BNG. Why should the staff (or other customers) have to put up with badly behaved children at any time of the day? Most people wouldn't have a problem with well behaved children at reasonable times of day.

I miss Texan bars and Golden Nuggets cereal.

I still miss Brookside.

"Skank" is not the most feminist description of a woman I've ever read on this forum.

If that's the way your turned, on to ED Road then there's no point in appealing. The restrictions there have been clearly signposted for a long time now.

No children after 7 is a reasonable rule for a pub.

It was clearly not considered at all. Designed by an idiot.

It won't distract from your ill-advised comment.

KY jelly would also be an option. How old are you? That's the sort of casual homophobia I'd expect from an unintelligent child.

It's bizarre that Southwark planning's refusal to allow changes to the walkway resulted in an addition to the station which has detracted from the building in a far greater way. The main problems (quite apart from the hideous design) are the lack of an additional exit on the far side and the fact that the crowds are forced in both directions into such a ridiculous bottleneck with so few barriers (only one of which was working this morning by the way.) The ticket hall is so small that the only way of seeing the information boards is to stand in the way of the barriers, exacerbating the problems. The exit needs to be installed on Windsor walk and the ticket hall needs to be demolished and started again. As nice as it is having a coffee shop there, this should form part of the ticket hall. There just isn't room for a pub, a coffee shop AND a station at this site.

I agree there should be another exit and that the ticket office is a joke but there should be no "favouring" outgoing passengers. People should be able to enter and exit at the same time and the flow of passengers should be better directed. It isn't better than before either, it's far worse.

Footfall analysis my arse. The contracts for the station "upgrade" we're clearly not awarded to or by anyone with an ounce of sense and I suspect a few people made a fair bit of cash to produce this ugly, inefficient and I'd venture dangerously designed monstrosity. The fact that Thameslink can't run their trains on time adds to the woes.

This has made me remember The Secret History of our streets, inspired by Charles Booth. That was a brilliant series. We were living on Camberwell Grove when it was broadcast and they did one about it. Absolutely fascinating.

Try being self-employed and you won't feel so hard done by. You don't know how lucky you are.

A poorly judged thread.

People who try and make your area a better place should be severely punished. Crikey, get a real problem.

I'd quite like a list of Blah Blah's possessions and their price, so we can make a moral judgement about whether he should have spent what he spent on each item.

I agree bodsier. I had never seen this thread before and many of the posts are old but it typifies the insensitive and ghoulish nature of some forum posters, treating this woman as entertainment.
