As a long-time and avid yellow poster snooper, I noticed that the bookies' as was on LL, near to the video shop, could become a ladies' beauty parlour.

Also, would anyone else second my desire that Strada should set up shop on LL? There is no pizzeria for miles, save P Express in the Village and that doesn't count. Imagine having a pint in the Bishop then a nice fiorentina in Strada where that benefits place used to be, or in place where the Woolwich is. (A poster said it was closing in September.)

I think there's been a fair bit of discussion about the lack of a proper Italian somewhere already.. and I think the general opinion was 'yes'.

I agree that the standard of food is better in Strada than in some other modern-italian sleek eateries ('sleekeries'?), but I think the best Italian restaurants are always the small family-run ones, lower in price, higher in charm and quirk (like good neighbourhood restaurants in Italy)

Pizza Express really isn't that great (but - highchairs aside -they are child friendly, so we go there). And can the Bella Pasta offerings (next door) count as 'Italian food'? (shiver).


A good honest Italian restaurant on LL with good honest grub would be beyond wonderful!


(ducks, in case the anti-gentrifiers start throwing brickbats).

I like chopsticks but it's a bit hit and miss. The good stuff is great but the bad stuff is just awful. For instance the chicken in cashew nuts is... well, words fail me (in a bad way). But the crispy lamb in plum sauce is good.


Actually, now that I think about it the quality does seem to be decreasing gradually as time goes by...


I don't really like Wagamama's though.

That's cos wagamama's awful these days. If you REALLY want good noodles come to Parkway just 'ere

to viet anh noodles. superb. Ihave the unfortunate luck of working in this neck of the woods sadly.


Huguenot btw, you are a bad bad man, i feel terrible, and i thing vapours may be wisping off me

    • No one is arguing that people should cycle without lights or reflectors. Obviously they should. It is also a legal requirement. But the colour of someone’s clothing? Is it ok to wear navy? What about green? What shade? At what point should we have ‘no reason for sympathy’ if they’re in a collision? I don’t want people to feel like they need special clothes just to walk or cycle. If you have lights and reflectors and you’re on well lit city streets, there is no reason why drivers shouldn’t be able to see you, assuming of course, that they're driving with due care and attention. But yes, if there are lots of people without lights, that should be addressed. I suspect in part, it's the change over in seasons and the fact that people are getting caught out by how early it's getting dark now (obviously no excuse).

    • What a passionate thread this is. I have worked in cycling for years, am a cyclist, a driver, use public transport etc. Driving last night with my two young kids, who also cycle, we made the same observations. It was the kids who first asked me why are most cyclists wearing full black and no lights. We then played a game who can spot all the cyclists, and count those with lights and those without. This teaches them to look out for them but also not to put themselves in a position where we have to strain to find them. 
    • On the plus side showers are warm down - for now 😆
