Following on from the above having called every pub in ED/Peckham Hoopers were indeed the only one showing the game and Nick the barman was very hospitable despite having to show the rugby in the main room. Top beer and a top pub, refreshing compared to the pretentiousness encountered on lordship lane etc...

I ended up taking a chance at the CPT, thinking a) it wouldn't be that busy, and b) they've quite a few tellys so at least one would have the match. Obviously I was wrong and having got there a bit late anyway, we decided against the yomp down to Hoopers - not too bad a choice given the final result :(


If Sky ever show a Reading game again that doesn't clash with either an international rugger match or an ESPN Premier League game I'll be amazed! Until that happens, I'll have to remember Hoopers for next time.

    • Where did I suggest that those in Southwark should pay more? I gave what seemed to be a likely reason why Lambeth is able to spend more than Southwark on street cleaning, if that is in fact the case. Local elections are coming up soon. I'm sure this  would be an excellent opportunity for you to ask the existing councillors - and other people who are standing for election - what their priorities would be if elected!
    • I'm sure they have good reasons, yet safety for the residents who pay the CT should be a priority. £63 million on Other Services?  
    • Southwark Council have a £70m budget shortfall over the next three years, largely driven by the raising cost of adult social care, children’s social care and homelessness. I am sure they’d like to prioritise street cleaning more, but this isn’t realistic. If you’re interested in a breakdown of how they spend their money, the headlines are here:  https://www.southwark.gov.uk/council-tax/how-we-manage-council-tax/our-budget-and-how-we-spend-council-tax/our-income-and I’m sure there are areas where the council could make better decisions or be more efficient, but they’re working in a very challenging financial context.
    • Would you not expect clean streets to be a priority? Rather than suggesting those in Southwark pay more, would it not be more relevant that Southwark actually prioritise it and explain what they are spending our money on.
