  1. That's going to give the three independents on the Lane and in Grove Vale a bit of competition to compete against, especially as it's a chain and that can probably run at lower margins, lets see what happens.
  2. Diane Schuur, Round Midnight from the LP Pilot of my destiny. Well worth a listen of you're into jazz vocals. just close your eyes and listen to her memorising voice.
  3. An all time favourite artist and pulled straight out the box, Bobby Womack, Tell me why.
  4. Grace Jones, Ladies and gentlemen, Miss Grace Jones
  5. So went pat this evening, the council have extended the kerb excessively and the only way two buses will pass is if one of them goes right up against the kerb, otherwise IMO no chance.
  6. The road modifications will result in buses pulling over as they do to let each other and other traffic pass by. I use the P13 every week through Whateley Road, all this will succeed in is to create a bottle neck. Personally I can't see the need for a zebra crossing being located there but residents may well have other opinions about this and good reason for wanting one. Perhaps because of the primary school located on the corner of Whately and LL it was thought necessary????
  7. Agents are not interested in talking to potential authors, they receive so many submissions that they quickly weed out those they are not interested in, probably 95%. They generally ask for a 500 word summary and either the first three chapters or the whole book. Responses take a long time if you are luckily enough to get one, they as a general rule don't provide feedback. It's a hard slog to get picked up by one who'll represent you.
  8. Can I suggest taking a look at the built out kerbs, based on Friday's experience I can't see this being possible, but as P68 has said, time will tell..............
  9. Another bizarre decision by LB Southwark to slow down and bottle neck traffic. Does Whateley Road really need a zebra crossing? But why widen the pavement to the extent it stops buses passing each other, utter madness, the lunatics really are running the asylum at LBS.
  10. Time to jazz it up for the weekend, so lets get things started with this gem from Stanley Turrentine - Papa T. The theme tune and introduction from the infamous Invicta Radio and back in the day Bluebird records on Church Street Paddington - just reminiscing
  11. The continual unnecessary and repetitive use of the words whatever and like in spoken language. Add awesome to the list.
  12. Gene Chandler, I'll make the living if you make the lovin' worthwhile
  13. Austin Mitchell, politician
  14. Monmouth coffee beans based near south bermondsey
  15. I'd say from hearing neighbours experience of Equity Release, simply DON'T do it at any cost. The cumulative interest is crippling.
  16. Chaka Khan, I know you , I live you
  17. Perhaps take photo's and send to the Councillors, the council direct, News shopper and South London Press, always looking for a story and angle.
  18. I started this thread as a light hearted bit of fun and I think it's run its course as people are brining in Hancock which has nothing to do with Boris getting his misses up the duff. Unless of course Hancock dipped his wick there as well??? Admin as the originator, can we close this thread down now please.

  20. It was a light hearted post, not meant to be taken too seriously, in jest, in fun, having a laugh.
  21. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-58042146 Carrie's pregnant once more, Boris, keep it in your trousers man.

Only other noticeable difference is more traffic than usual. Sydenham Rise was chukka with cars already by lunchtime. Perhaps the volumes may increase from 5.30pm although the earlier drizzle and threat of rain later may also deter some today.
  23. It was banging out loud enough even up the hill last night. Are these events not governed by the no. of db's and if exceeded, need to be reduced. Where's the noise team??? I do feel very sorry for those in the midst of the intolerable bass. Today Hornimans Gardens are closed for the Jerk music and burnt food event that they have brought back, so stuck in the middle of the two. It seems to be all about ?? Money at the expense of local residents.
  24. Perhaps Burgess Park would have been a more suitable venue for this, but then again could also have been in Brockwell Park, Crystal Palace Bowl or even Belair Park.
