I occasionally see Don Letts DJ out- usually as a gig warm up, and he never seems to play anything you wouldn't expect him to. I don't have a great Reggae knowledge but he always seems to play tunes I recognise and ALWAYS plays a few Clash songs (excpected, i know).


Thinking about it, 6music seems quite under-represented when it comes to Reggae. Cerys and some of those others i mentioned (Coe, Robinson, Ravenscroft, Huey) occasionally play a tune or two, but surely there's scope for a late night show dedicated to reggae once a week.

This is spot on. Lauren Laverne's voice grates with me for some reason... like she's always got a blocked nose. And she tries a bit too hard at times. Tom Robinson is brilliant. John Cooper Clarke sounds like Saville which puts me off a bit.

    • I'd be tempted to put up some sort of fence  to delineate the area and see what happens. Probably nothing.
    • Poundland have been there just over two years. 
    • Has anybody here bought some land from the council to become part of their garden? There are helpful guidelines on the Southwark website here including a PDF with associated costs, however the "valuation" element has absolutely no guidelines. It could be £500 or £50,000. You will already have spent £1000 on the process before finding out what they will charge you for the land - which would certainly be frustrating if it's not affordable for you. The land in question is a tiny patch immediately attached to the front of my property, approx 4 meters wide x 1 meter long. Would like to put a fence there to separate from the pavement and allow some privacy, keep the bins more tidy. The land is of no value to anybody else and is neglected currently - the council seems to have to stopped maintaining this area between the pavement and the houses on our street.
    • I suppose wind could have blown rubbish out of bins down into the pond. But I also counted three footballs and some smaller balls. Regrettably, there is also what seems to be a large dead carp or waterfowl, hard to tell at distance. I just hope the water quality is okay. I am not clear to what extent the pond is managed.
