where is whately road ? what is there ?

1st urban farmers market this weekend on Nunhead Green -flyers look really good - link on southwark council website.

When these decisions are taken to grant, there only seems to be a couple of local councillors and a council officer (architect or whatever) in sitting. Yet when a road is completely turned into flats the impact on the social environment can be huge, parking, short term tenants, loss of community etc. Victorian houses were never meant to be used in this way and were never constructed with regard to sound and insulation in mind anyway. it seems that guide lines and wants drawn up by the higher powers for new build flats are completely transferable to older properties, which in reality are mostly pretty unsuited. - surely there should be a limit per street or someone really clued up about the social effects, sitting on these hearings. It is amazing to read how many of these proposals are objected to by locals/neighbours in the roads in question and are then still given the go-ahead ! it's a kind of borrow now pay later system, sound crunchingly familiar ?

Actually Sean if you could refrain from agreeing with me, it undermines my role as AFN by shifting me into a gentrified arena where i can have no critical weight. It also means that i may wake up to find myself antagonised by NewCross4ever, doomed to spend my mornings staring out of my small window waiting for my 1 hour of yard exercise.

What organic butchers ?

Oh and talking of home grown produce, Nunhead Green is hosting an Urban Farmers Market next weekend 27th Sep.

I was reading a thread about the Bread and Roses in Clapham ? socialist experiment that it is !1 they have a war games society, a lesbian artist speed dating event and a whole host of other things. You seem to have hosted the EDF very well maybe you should think about getting some interesting clubs in. Surely there must be an ED allotment society or something ? hit the huts by the Dulwich Golf Club and offer them their christmas party. Where home grown produce starts others are sure to follow.

Page2 was er ...well....erm....not good The Duke is more than fine, a very different feel and certainly not trying to hard. More than enough booze to get you twatted and good food to boot. Pretentious it ain't which is more to the point - very Nunhead indeed.

Hideous dump....How do you work that out then ? it's amazing inside, nothing like a half twisting pike through rays of sun and the odd sparrow !! love it love it love, so do the 3000+ petition writers who told ken where he could stick his proposed bollox leisure center, with piss warm water and plastic bags on your feet....but then maybe your into that kind of kink ?

I just took this photo on my way past, probably that binksy geezer and his stencils, what a liberty !

Does anyone have any thoughts on this ? I was looking through some planning documents and it seems that splitting a property into smaller units ticks many of the governments guidelines. Surely at some point there should be a tipping point where the street in question can no longer take the increase, also surely it has an effect on community especially in terms of rental / short term tenants etc. Now with the new ruling with regard to small rear additions (with no planning needed) we are going to see a raft of 2 story additions appear purely to increase rental income.

Off topic to some....but.....if you look carefully you will realise that this is in fact an experimental session for a new club night at the FHT Silent Button Tappers - Starring the EDF crew. Every Wed till late - bring a laptop and a mask. No trainers allowed and no heavy petting.

The internet knows no boundaries, except in china ! hey hang on a second none of you are aspiring memebers of the Shanghai clique are you ? ...anyhoo i was thinking of Moses.....

What you mean Robert Preston of corporation Aunty ? he should have used that knowledge to fill up the beeb's ever draining coffers, maybe then we can all join Noel and watch it for free !!

Ta DaveMc duly accepted i'll stick it on my shelf alongside my matchstick replica of the forest hill tavern !

Macqaurie's next......... Kiss goodbye to Thames Water, the M6 Toll, the National Grid's broadcasting towers, Bristol Airport and part of East London buses, just a fraction of this little lot's portfolio. Anyone shout Hedge !

Well it would be difficult to meet an internet persona and there is nothing descending or personal about my comments unless he/she/automation/gifted animal does carve stone. Ruthb pops up and is immediately patronised with the comment "........you told off for what is esentially rude behaviour". it's bleedin obvious when the EDF circle their wagons. Just take it on the chin and live with it .....ruthb is a local drinks there, dances there and most of the regulars at the FHT would love to meet you so stop typing and stick your head in .... and if any one says "i've been a regular for 10 years and ....blah blah blah...." then i will not post here until the second hand goes round the clock face in one rotation. any noise tonight ? BRAP BRAP

How about they finish off crystal palace first then open up the museum on the OKR before they divert more funding to give you all a spring water fed pool ? I was going to say bleedin liberals, but after watching their conference ( especially the bit about the fact that they feel better positioned to lead us through the current global credit crises ) i shall say bleedin funny liberals instead !! My aunty clamidia (who used to run the bakers on the Walworth Road) had more financial experience than Clegg and his band of merry money midgets.

in response to Sean 'Tablets from the mountain' Macgabhann "ruthb may have inadvertantly got off to a ropey start and as candj says, hopefully that will be sorted " what a load of cobblers, since when did you decide what's ropey and what's not ? i thought ruthb got off to a great start. If you climbed forest hill and came back down with some tablets from the internet god of blogging which clearly contain a set of commandments then fair enough, if not however then poppycock to you and your "ropey starts". Bait this is not my stone carving friend.

I am not very sure about the priest to be honest, i feel like i have heard all the sermons before.

were there two of them or more ? Brothers i mean ?

Only when i am cracked up to the nines - otherwise i want to wage war against it and it's meandering postman pat like route of the boatman of the styx.

"move out of the area and stop reading the Daily Mail" sounds rude ? no it does not. You go Ruthb don't you sign up to their imaginary hierarchy, they have all had one two many expensive loaves of pine nut and daffodil bread !. This forums free leave your social games at the door please.

Don't tell em ruthb ! You will be on a pack of organic playing cards before you can say..........gunshot riddim !!

No you can still patent something, you just have to the first to do it.
