Steve I agree with Clare... hang in there


It's all new to me too having just moved around here after 26 years in North London (no booing please!) but it's good for finding out what's going on and has been really helpful in finding somewhere to live.


oh, and saw Emily Joyce in Sainsburys - she is one of those intriguing natural beauties... well I think so (google comes in handy at this point!)

I have seen Gavin & Stacey's Staecy loads of times now, Sophie from Peep show a few times, Phil Mitchell's bird from Eastenders in Sainsbury's and also Tobias Menzies in Cafe Nero, Menzies is in Spooks, was in Casino Royale, Rome ect... and I had not seen him before.


I am still waiting to see Mr Nesbitt & Ms Brand !

Don't watch Eastenders but my inlaws do so I recognised Shirley from Eastenders in Sainsburys, Dog Kennel a few times.


Also spotted James Nesbitt about a hundred times around the place, also Lorraine Chase in and around Dul Village. Also Jenny Eclair in Barclays Bank in Camberwell about a year ago.


Couple of weeks ago was coming out of Brixton tube and spotted a well-known actor but can't think of his name.


I'm sure he's been in Eastenders and other programmes for around 20 odd years. If I was shown a picture with a name I could place him. He looks like the actor in Emmerdale whos been around for years and wears the black choker.

Pretty sure he doesn't live in the area but queued behind John McCririck in Londis today buying beer and pancakes, informing the shopkeeper that his facial hair was "a huge turn-on for birds" and that he would "s**t on the doorstep" of shopkeepers who didn't respect him. What a guy.

The John McCririck (or however it is spelled) post made me laugh. You wouldn't expect anything less. How disappointing if he'd have actually been well-mannered.


We seem to do well round these 'ere parts for 'serious' actors, comediennes etc, but what about pure 'Heat' type 'celebs'? You know trashy glam types - or is ED not that kind of 'hood?

The Cheeky Girls! Pure reality TV gold. Definitely Heat worthy and definitely the best celeb spot so far in my book.


That could only be trumped by Kerry Katona - long shot, but anyone seen her - do you think she could be enticed here with an Iceland platter?

Kate Ford is indeed a genuinely lovely girl. And she's not always on the phone. She's always happy, down to earth and makes a good cup of tea ;-)

Have seen the actor Adrian Lester a few times, once in Locale when it was still the Green - he's lovely and very handsome.


James Nesbitt at Browell Lido a few times over the years.


The interior designer off Changing Rooms who used to say "I think it looks really, really nice..."...what was her name? Not sure she really counts as famous.


Oh, and Alex Kingston used to live on Goose Green don't you know, pre Hollywood days of course.

I used to work with Gerrard Butler after my Dad employed him as a trainee lawyer. Gerry and I used to sneak out for a pint at the Conan Doyle and talk about girls. He left to take up acting at 28 and I didn't see him untill 5 years later when his chiselled torso graced a huge billboard on Times Square. The whole thing is a bunch of bollocks. But I'm secretly hoping for a party invite in LA sometime soon. Unlikely I think...

i saw bob hoskins when they were making the long good friday the first couple of

minnutes were shot in landells rd and the alleyway where the music shop is opposite

darrel rd on upland rd near where the old police station used to be in the 70;s

if this qualifies

    • With fibre you are paying for the speed, which is the number, yours is 300 so if you did a lot of gaming, for example, you would want the fastest possible.  If it's just office work or maybe streaming on Netflix you likely won't need as fast, but, if there are a lot of people in your house all doing their own thing on different devices, then faster speeds are better.  I don't rely on my Wi-Fi much other than when I am using my mobile.  I use Ethernet cables to connect up everything, I Have one cable running from my router, along the skirtings and through a hole I drilled in the wall to another room.  I have attached the plusnet speed guide which gives you an idea of how it works.   
    • I'd reread what you posted and try to summarise.  It just comes across as a rant.
    • Just shows, to me, once proud to be a citizen of UK.. now.. well if we pay/contribute to services - nhs, police, fire etc and folk who have made this there home - no matter what creed or culture.. for the love c of God, can someone  please explain to me.. how we have working royals who like them or not, have tried and continue to actually support and make a change and then we have Andrew.. who just destroys everything.. not just him, or royalty but his own children..  I had great admiration for The Queen - and respect.. as have a huge number of people.. but.. these old traditions where gosh.. live rent free and can’t get chucked out until I believe 2070? From what I scanned..well he has and continues to have it all.. has to go thru what old rules? Etc.  doubt very much he has even kept the upkeep maintenance up on his abode.. and do the shite keeps on pulling up.. What has Andrew done for UK or for that matter since he was 20?? Do please tell me       Totally off topic, before anyone jumps down my throat.. I just do not get how anyone is proud to be British at this point in time. Whoever is in power, seems to be able to help themselves to the public purse with no redress at all - Covid is a great example of lining of pockets.. Millions  given to Rowanda, so one is led to believe, to help with refugee problem and one can’t get a plane load off!  I simply do not get it at all. Use of food banks in UK growing yearly, homeless as well, nhs, police, fire service etc all on their knees..        
    • Have applied the green roof at a number of properties and no issues you are concerned about detected. Have issues with cats defecating in the vicinity, however, they are not selecting the green roof specifically. Use decent compost, slow release fertiliser specific for green roofs, and lay it methodically not leaving blank patches. It looks amazing when cared for and adds value.
