Shite. Never been a regular but always enjoyed it when I've dropped in when passing. Another block of flats no doubt...

Would seriously doubt that. Southwark has recently adopted Article 4 directions to specifically protect local pubs and The Gowlett is amongst those with the highest level of protection.

That would be good - no idea of what these orders mean - do they mean it has to stay a pub?

Link at the end of this post that gives some background. There are further links within the page that list pubs and the level of protection they will be afforded: http://www.southwark.gov.uk/planning-and-building-control/planning-policy-and-transport-policy/article-4-directions?chapter=5&utm_content=&utm_medium=email&utm_name=&utm_source=govdelivery&utm_term=

Already shut mate. I went there last night for a victory pizza and pints (finally had PhD thesis corrections accepted after a year long battle) and was massively gutted to see that it has closed :(

      Dulwich library closing for refurbishment

      By David Peckham · Posted

      Absolutely, Insuflo I very much doubt that anyone other than football fans would have heard of Dyche, much less his views on false number nines, mobile centre halves  dropping into midfield or diamond formations. But all middle-aged, portly, bald, gruffly spoken football fans from north of the capital who eschew fancy Dan tactics for the traditional, English merits of 4-4-2 shall be deemed knuckle-dragging Neanderthals by the Wokerati and the Metropolitan Elite. They care not what his views are, only that he looks like the sort of person who may have them. It's political correctness gone mad. But they, unlike Dyche, won't have a pub named after them.

      I'm afraid I have no idea who Sean Dyche is, but I'm sure I could research him (and his views on library refurbishment timetables, if any) on any of the Southwark libraries' internet access computers. Free for any library member!

      So that suggests the consultations with 'community' are just a tick box exercise where information given cannot be relied on. Not a good look. I hope Renata Hamvas who is the local councillor, as well as licensing, finds a way to stop the wholesale, spreadingmonetisation of an important green space in summer. If they get this it'll end up like Brockwell Park before you know it.

      I’m broadly in agreement with you, Dogkennelhillbilly. But why the meme? It’s a very unfair representation of Sean Dyche, a man who to my knowledge has never engaged in any culture war bollocks. From his Wikipedia entry: Dyche features in an internet meme criticising modern trends in football, in which the phrase "utter woke nonsense" is attributed to him; he said "I wish I'd copyrighted it. Considering I didn’t actually say it, it does follow me around".
