Meanwhile Dr Gupta has been taking home around 2 million a year http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2063458/Family-doctors-firm-raking-1-8m-YEAR--patients-say-surgery-appalling.html and enjoying junkets with the prime minister http://www.businessgreen.com/digital_assets/6344/February_2013_trade_mission_delegates_booklet.pdf .

@James - could we not at least push for a regular bus service connecting ED to Brixton tube and / or some secure bike parking at Brixton? What's the best way to try and influence any such changes?

Indoor skatepark would be good

I think it's worth pointing out occasionally as he tends to get a lot of stick on this forum.

It never ceases to amaze me how many people lazily cut corners in their cars. I actually think power steering has made people worse.

Trains in and out of LB are fooked this morning

What's the cut off point for east dulwich authenticity...10 years, 20, more? At what point does someone stop being a 'blow in'? Must you have been born here? The Easy D thing is awful and the only other place I've ever heard it is in a previous Time Out article. It's all a bit "stop trying to make fetch happen".

Didn't he hike up the rent in order to force out Soupdragon. It's been a pop up and then empty ever since.

If the problem is condensation caused by a cold external wall however, then insulation is exactly what you need.

But is it the original transgressor or a copycat?

...Or start drinking again.

Lucozade and sleep.

Wow, that does seem pretty sneaky. Surely Southwark won't now grant the creation of 10 flats? I dont' know that much about it, but from your post first mate, it does appear the developer may be playing the system somewhat.

If they've breached the plans, there must be recourse somehow? Have you reported any infringements?

I'm with fox

Just think, we might end up out of the EU, with Scotland declaring independence, Trump leader of the free world and Boris as Prime minster!
