One thing that no-one has mentioned is that the Mag were cool about kids. My son's 15 and I've been taking him there for about 3 years to watch football matches. So long as the kids were quietish no-one ever minded. He knew John and the bar staff and I personally think taking kids into pubs like that demystifies the whole experience and will prevent them turning into raging binge drinkers. The CPT doesn't even allow kids outside on the terrace which is ridiculous. The Castle really is too much of a boozer and the Plough is sterile and lacks any atmosphere - and it keeps to old fashioned opening hours. Ye gods, where is a girl to get a drink at 1am in the morning without walking down Lordship Lane? And yes the Mag had its unsavoury moments but it's my local and I feel really sad that it's temporarily gone and just hope it doesn't change too much.

I meant what are the pubs/bars doing on New Years Eve! Too many mince pies obviously!!!!!

I used to cycle from East Dulwich to Clerkenwell which used to take 35 minutes. Now I have an easy 10 minute ride to Brixton!

Does anyone know what the bars/pubs in Lordship Lane are doing in Lordship Lane?
