Hi Eddie


It's John Lynch here, one of the interested music parties that dropped off the radar.


Sincere apologies for not having been in touch.


Christmas, New Year, etc. etc.


I have literally just moved back into the area ( it's taken me ages to find the right place - two kids in tow ).


I'm still really keen on setting up a music section, but am so fucked for money ( two months deposit - it's killed me ).


Would you be interested in doing a deal ?


Something along the lines of, no deposit or rent up front, BUT I'll pay you the rent due out of the weekly takings.


Basically, I'll pay the rent due weekly or whatever works best for both of us.


I am off to OSLO next week for a music festival called By:Larm and then off to Austin, Texas for SXSW in March, but I would have someone who could cover for me.


I also lost my phone the other day ( too many rum and cokes ), so e-mail is the best way to get hold of me.


Let me know if you're into the idea.


Thanks for being so patient.


I hope everything is going well for you and I look forward to hearing from you.


Best Wishes


John Lynch

It was empty last Sunday morning when we arrived - maybe just opened - but it was great.


We chatted to everyone, bought some nice cheeses (sampled a lot more...) and had a long chat to the Keith and his wife about photos and travelling, and the nice lady about antique rose mirrored glass - God I'm getting old


Anyway a great addition to the hig street

I went here yesterday and loved it. All the stall holders were friendly and so happy to see some customers. I really do think it gets lost in the Lordship Lane haven of shops. For all you new mums or ones with toddlers. There is a great coffee shop there that was empty when I went. I think it would be a great place for yummy mummies to meet up. (And it will not annoy Matt)

Down Zenoria Rd, Strawbs. Keith, they do have a handheld sign on a Saturday, the stallholders seem to take it in turns. I expect it's a problem with planning permission that there isn't a permnanent one.


However, you can apply to the Council to put a sign on a lamppost - it costs about ?200 from memory - that may be worth the stallholders chipping in for.

    • And from what I remember, she eventually cut the tea shop for a similar  reason to chandelier.  Chariot style buggies
    • Oh yes, it could have been about there, I can't remember exactly. At one point there seemed to be a load of pizza places opening on NCR. I vaguely remember the one we used to use was put out of business by another one which opened. Wasn't Grace and Favour's food offering more of a tea shop at the back of the actual shop? If memory serves the owner, whose name escapes me now, was one of the earliest people I know to move to Hastings. Which must now be crammed with South East Londoners 🤣
    • That Neal Street veggie cafe was great. Food For Thought ❤️
    • Hi Dogkennelhillbilly, You won't be aware that i proposed infill sites for housing in East Dulwich - the garages on Bassano Street and Henslowe that respectively became 1-4 Dill Terrace family houses and the 78, 80, 80A Henslowe Street family houses. These were council owned garages and it was frustrating how slow the council was to go from my idea to completion (roughly eight years). East Dulwich has some other vacant WW2 bomb sites I'm guessing that the private land owners have been sitting on.Owe for a land tax for vacant land.  WRT to the builders yard by East dulwich station. Southwark Council has an agreed policy the area should remain suburban 2/3 storeys maximum. But the approved scheme is 9 storeys of student accommodation. Very hard to put this genie back in the bottle. The council has recently publicly stated lower ratios of social housing will be required. I will be amazed if the developer doesn't submit another application now they have the 9 storeys approved but with significantly less social housing. The less social housing the higher the land values. The higher the land values the less social housing viability reports state are possible.  If we really want to increase home supply - Southwark have over 6,000 empty homes. Vancouver charges a low % of the value of empty homes and rapidly eased this problem. Parts of Wales have introduced under Article 4 planning permission is required for second homes seeing within 12 months a dramatic decrease in property prices. Southwark Council have Article 4 requirements - why not add this one? It takes National political will to solve this AND regional and local authorities such as the second home council tax premium and these being used promptly.
