Scott, great night on Thursday. Thanks. Can't wait to come back next week.


I couldn't help but notice your projector screen concealed in the ceiling. Is it fair to assume you're going to be showing football? Might you be showing the Spurs-Arsenal match this Tuesday?

Just want to add my belated thanks, I posted on the other Uplands thread by mistake, forgot about this one :)


The pizza was great and I was delighted to find a lager I hadn't tried before which actually tasted of something - now will be in this week to try the Broadside (thanks so much for having Broadside, Scott!!)


Also delighted to discover a fellow melodeon player wannabe who lives in my road :))


:)-D

I knew you would see an opportunity scott. The Prince Albert is not for everyone. :)


Can we keep the screen for rugby and golf please.


There's a thought - are you showing the Ryder Cup by any chance?

These are already available, but it would be wise to check with the Warhol eatate that there's no infringement of copyright.

I like the porn idea, but it might be a tad progressive.


But it could be a televised spectator sport which doesn't consist mostly of footage umbrellas seen from above, grass, conversations you can't hear and silly trousers - accompanied by the sound of light wind broken by occasional half-hearted clapping.

Actually *Bob*


I've just purchased an "eco" paint that takes 48 hrs to dry between coats


The job it's going onto will take 4 coats, so I'm going to film it & ask Scott to show it



( just to wet your appetite it's in French Grey number 8 )



Fancy a preview copy ?



W**F

Really enjoyed the atmosphere at the Actress last night. I ususally don't like to watch football without sound but I thought it worked well. And hopefully it will discourage the kind of 'fans' who sit there shouting and swearing at the screen, ruining it for those of us who appreciate that it is in fact just a game, and really not worth getting that worked up about. Last week, for example, at another pub in ED, I had the pleasure of sitting next to a man, who at one point shouted out (without pausing for breath) "What you f*cking doing, Lennon? Yes, go on, Lennon! Oh f*ck off, Lennon!"

Arf! Not me. Could have been though but I wouldn't have said "Oh f*ck off Lennon." Was it in the CPT or Hoopers? I was probably at the match but what's wrong with a bit of passion when you're watching a match? Jeez!

By the way what's the point having the football on if you've got no sound. Beats me.

    • There are no road works in front of Cod fellas and yesterday when I requested a stop there the driver went straight past and never stopped untill Avondale Riss. As cars have to stop because of the lights why can busses not do this? 1 minute Bloodly mindedness.
    • These are the smokeless fuels you can burn on a open fireplace in Southwark: https://smokecontrol.defra.gov.uk/fuels-php/england/ https://www.southwark.gov.uk/planning-environment-and-building-control/environment/air-quality/reduce-air-pollution/reduce-smoke
    • Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm    
    • If you mean the one outside the church going towards Peckham, it still had the closed sign on it this morning, but as there are no road works there, I'm sure some of the drivers will stop there on request.  The stop outside the chippy coming from Peckham is closed as there are road works in front of it.  The 4 way traffic lights are in operation.., causing a lot of congestion.
