Even a fool is thought wise if he keeps silent, and discerning if he holds his tongue.

Have heard reports of foreign parrots being disguised as British kingfishers- -post Brexit we should be on our guard.

Does anyone know where I can get klarky kat ?

I would give Platform One a ring and see if there are any places for the amazing Smoke and Salt who have returned to ED to reprise their amazing Michelin star quality food. We followed them from ED to Islington and we have never eaten better food anywhere - period. http://www.smokeandsalt.com/

I should have sold 6 - 9 months ago when rubbish was flying off the shelves quite a few people bought lemons then and are finding fixing them probably a great deal more expensive than they could have imagined.

Took mine off the market just after Brexit - Winkworth's said people are looking for 5 -10 % of what they consider as fair pre-Brexit pricing. Has been a positive for us as we got the house ready for market and did a lot of overdue repairs. Looking at renting out a spare room for Mon-Fri let so happy to stay for the medium / long term as we are looking to downsize and release some cash. In the long run who knows enouh storm clouds gathering all over the place to expect a lot of rain... Friends in Turnham Green got 200k off a 1.4m property post Brexit or they would have walked. Here's one pundit predicting 30% falls... https://www.theguardian.com/money/2016/jul/18/brexit-could-cut-london-house-prices-by-more-than-30-says-bank

I've just pulled out of putting my house on the market as we wanted to downsize and were going to go with Winkworth's. They are saying that buyers are expecting 5 - 10 % off what they regards as "fair price" and houses under offer have buyers asking for a similar discount. Who knows where this is going but as we can sit it out for the forseeable and are doing that for now. Could regret this 2 years down the line if prices are down 30% or so - truth is nobody knows could easily go the other way.

At the old Thresher's off licence according to LBC.

"While not subjected to the boos that greeted Chancellor George Osborne during the Paralympics, she was met by groans from the crowd when she presented medals." Well done that Paralympics crowd You can hire her for 5k a pop to grace your proceedings if you want.

Put a poster in your window saying East Dulwich says NO to early aircraft noise.

Would be great if Nunhead got a Waitrose to pee off all the ED M&S junkies !

The parable Bastiat's original parable of the broken window from Ce qu'on voit et ce qu'on ne voit pas (1850): Have you ever witnessed the anger of the good shopkeeper, James Goodfellow, when his careless son happened to break a pane of glass? If you have been present at such a scene, you will most assuredly bear witness to the fact that every one of the spectators, were there even thirty of them, by common consent apparently, offered the unfortunate owner this invariable consolation?"It is an ill wind that blows nobody good. Everybody must live, and what would become of the glaziers if panes of glass were never broken?" Now, this form of condolence contains an entire theory, which it will be well to show up in this simple case, seeing that it is precisely the same as that which, unhappily, regulates the greater part of our economical institutions. Suppose it cost six francs to repair the damage, and you say that the accident brings six francs to the glazier's trade?that it encourages that trade to the amount of six francs?I grant it; I have not a word to say against it; you reason justly. The glazier comes, performs his task, receives his six francs, rubs his hands, and, in his heart, blesses the careless child. All this is that which is seen. But if, on the other hand, you come to the conclusion, as is too often the case, that it is a good thing to break windows, that it causes money to circulate, and that the encouragement of industry in general will be the result of it, you will oblige me to call out, "Stop there! Your theory is confined to that which is seen; it takes no account of that which is not seen." It is not seen that as our shopkeeper has spent six francs upon one thing, he cannot spend them upon another. It is not seen that if he had not had a window to replace, he would, perhaps, have replaced his old shoes, or added another book to his library. In short, he would have employed his six francs in some way, which this accident has prevented.[1][2]

Get it right and you've got a winner on your hands and longstanding late licences seemingly unobjected to unlike the Great Exhibition's recent travails.

Great news - the only way is up !

This seems to be the price of living in a now desirable area - scumbags use it as a drive by shopping trip with a free checkout. With cheap webcams it wouldn't be that diffcult to set up a baited trap to catch and record the buggers.

You'd think given the strength of local opinion and the amount of objections that seem to have been officially lodged that GE should publically and gracefully withdraw.

or someone on a local internet forum getting worked up about about an article from the lefties getting worked up about the daily fail

Robert Fisk as ever gets to the hub of the matter and the gross hypocrisy of the issue.... Why, only a few years ago, the Bush administration was sending Muslims to Damascus for Bashar's torturers to tear their fingernails out for information, imprisoned at the US government's request in the very hell-hole which Syrian rebels blew to bits last week. Western embassies dutifully supplied the prisoners' tormentors with questions for the victims. Bashar, you see, was our baby. http://www.independent.co.uk/opinion/commentators/fisk/robert-fisk-syrian-war-of-lies-and-hypocrisy-7985012.html

I'm an arch sceptic but I'm won over to the exuberant festival atmosphere that has broken out all over London with ravishing stuff everywhere you look - saw the Garden of Fire outside of the NT on Wednesday night and some magical light puppet in Trafalgar Square last night with free concerts, happenings and events breaking out all over the place. We will probably never experience anything quite like it ever again. I suspect though outside of London it's a case of to London the spoils once again.
