Dear Group,


I used to have a pub/restaurant. I was told by the licensing sergeant of the police that you cannot by law charge admission given that the operation is a 'public house'. It really annoyed me as the acts that I put on were second rate, and if I charged I could have presented better acts. I had door security, but would never have trusted them as they feel they are a law unto themselves.

Anyway, when you next go into the Vale have a look at the pricing and food selection structure on the menu, I spent a good hour in there looking at it (slow reader - keep up) I saw sausage and mash more expensive than gammon steak etc. Whoever thought the menu out has a severe lack of imagination.

Kind regards to all,


Libra Carr

Hi

I wrote in another topic about the Fox On The Hill - I read in this topic it is not a tied pub but I thought it was Wetherspoons.

I would like to add that to my knowledge The Vale is the only pub in the area legally allowed to show Sky football matches and a pub has to pay a hell of a lot of money to do that. I may be wrong as I do not frequent all the other pubs, but a mate who goes to the Vale tells me this.

I can't keep up with each of you and what pub you work for.

Can we have a members list???

In it we could say what company we work for or own or what have you.

Ta.

(I don't work for any pub or any local business.)

Rock music and biker chicks?

Ohhh come now.

Down getteth you to the biker forums then.

But if we can't park our bikes outside we can't be seen getting on and off 'em looking all cool and leathery...


Now, if anyone knows of anyone who makes a sticker I can stick on the back of my bike that reads,

"Children in TopBox/Panniers" lemme know.

    • I just checked the Southwark Council website and it stated:   All responses to the consultation will be recorded and a ‘consultation findings’ report will be published once feedback has been reviewed. The review process involves collating feedback from a number of council teams and external agencies - the aim will be to publish the report as soon as possible after the consultation has closed and no later than the 31 January 2026. The report will be published on this site. The use of bold type on the date is the Council's, not mine. They are late. I wonder why?
    • I would also like to recommend Leon, who completed an EICR inspection for us. He kept us informed of his arrival time on the day and arrived promptly as promised. He was knowledgeable and clear about what work was required. I would happily recommend him and would not hesitate to use his services again.
    • It's not far from Lordship Lane if you cut down Ashbourne Grove/Melbourne Grove. Depends where you start from, I guess!
    • I doubt if it was something special - it has been full a few times I've been recently and when I have been able to get a space I've been lucky and bagged the only one available. I think there are only around 15 general spaces. Others are for staff, blue badge holders or EVs. I guess in winter people are more likely to drive, it wouldn't take much to fill all the spaces with the different things going on at the surgery/pharmacy such as blood tests, picking up prescriptions. It's possible a lot of the cars are in and out in 15 mins, i've not monitored it closely. This morning with all spaces filled when I arrived there were a couple of cars loitering in the hope of a space becoming available. I didn't want to risk it. As has been said, you can drive in and out and be caught on camera and not get a ticket but I'm not sure what the grace period is, if there is one.  Like you, I don't think a significant number of people are parking there to go shopping - it's too far from Lordship Lane as I found out this morning when i had to run from LL to Tessa Jowell! i guess the car parking spaces just can't cope with the number of legit drivers using Tessa Jowell and if that's the case not a lot can be done about it.
