I don't mind threads like that. They're fine. It's the puerile bickering that gets me.

So tedious for those of us making the mistake of reading this thread thinking it's about the closure of Swadesh. zzzzz

"Detectives released an image of a man wanted for questioning in connection with a series of sexual assaults on buses in Lewisham and Southwark" Never been attracted to buses myself.... Good news about the arrest.

I see they've now moved to ED Road but I recently needed to do this twice and used William Bailey Solicitors. Just walked in, no appointment needed. ?10. Another local firm were most unhelpful on the phone, saying they didn't have time etc so I was pleasantly surprised. Worth a call first in case anything has changed since the move though. http://williambaileysolicitors.co.uk/

Exactly this - especially the mud!

Repair underway...

I'm no fan of all this anti car stuff (I drive everywhere) but have to reluctantly concede that pulling out of my road (overhill, onto underhill) can involve an uncomfortable degree of guesswork due to parked vehicles on both corners. Traffic heading north is downhill and often travelling faster than it should be. Sight lines are poor, to put it mildly.

Hi Liam - I'm a volunteer for Link Age Southwark (the link in the post above) and would definitely encourage you to get in touch with them. They do great work and would snap you up I'm sure!

I thought there were some thought provoking points in this post.....until the last bit.

I had a good service from these guys in Forest Hill. They were recommended to me by Turners on Barry Rd, who are fantastic so that's a double rec really! http://www.jscoachworks.co.uk/

Well I popped in earlier and had a 'Piermont Green' juice (apple/spinach/cucumber) which was freshly made and very tasty, albeit not exactly cheap. Had a good chat with the guy working there who is new I believe. Some Bach was playing which gave it a classy vibe, but as a classical musician I might be biased! Fruit & veg all looked really good to me. It seems to be a work in progress. I had some time to kill but there was nowhere to sit. Definitely scope and space for a couple of tables and chairs which they are considering I think. Part greengrocer, part deli, part juice & coffee bar. Maybe it has an identity problem at the moment but there are good ideas being tried out and it's a great spot so I wish them all the best.

Each to their own! I thought it was quite fun.

Duwlich? 🙄

Sorry I missed this - those paintings are beautiful.

>>>Every steak i've ever had at a midweek, steak for a tenner type night, has been very disappointing.<<< Agree, but the Lordship one is IMHO a cut above those (see what I did there....) - which is why I posted.

My old boy spent quite a few overnights there, so I have a feeling you may be mistaken on that. taper Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > They are good.
