and you're a sado IMO... let the guy/girl have a bit of fun.


Calling the council at 12.10am.... i mean really. Maybe you should move to the burbs

To anyone living in central London, or even SE or SW low numbers south of the river, this is surely suburbs - zone 2/3 borders, reachable only by bus and overground, most of it built since 1900. Inner suburbs these days perhaps, but you couldn't call it inner city or urban.

(Pedantry alert)


The number part of London postcodes does not indicate how central you are - it's alphabetical by postal area - so the rererence to 'low numbers' doesn't make sense. And most of ED was built before 1900, in the 1880s and 1890s.


That aside, I agree that inner suburbs is the best description - it fits the history, architecture and the general feel.


Re 'offensive all night party' - obviously not literally all night, but I'd be pretty hacked off about this:


"the last guests left about 2:15 when we switched off the music"


if it was my neighbour, whether they'd warned me or not.

True. Inner suburbs but not Inner London.

    • London doesn’t have a lot of Argentinian places specialising in empanadas, which suggests demand isn’t that great. There are many neighbourhoods with none at all or even nearby.  So for a mini-chain like Chango (several branches in SW London) to open here where there’s already a well established family run place doing the same feels a bit off.  I’ll be giving Chacarero my ongoing custom. 
    • This is so helpful, everyone, thank you. @green bean Yes we have just (as of yesterday) installed the same external blinds you mention! We already had blackout blinds and we now have the external awnings too. Of course that will guarantee the end of the summer sunshine but I can see that they're going to be helpful as they let the light through but not the glare of the sun - I'm fed up of working in darkness with both the blackout blinds closed on sunny days. We'll see how we go with those for a bit but I reckon we'll get a couple of quotes from the other recommendations in case we end up going the whole hog. @penfold Love the idea of getting solar+batteries to offset the electricity usage so will look into that.  Thanks, all.
    • Yes Sally, I've emailed him several times since Xmas. I don't contact Councillors frequently but when I've done so over the years, I've found them generally engaged and responsive. It's unprecedented to just be ignored and, regardless of the query I'm raising, that's worrying from the point of view of  our local democratic voice. Its a Councillors role to represent local people! A different thread on here made reference to a lack of response from one of our ward councillors and, since there are only two, I'm guessing it's the same one. I'm following up my own concern separately but I'm asking on here about whether others have had the same problem. I'd like to think it's a one-off but, increasingly, I suspect it's not. Hope that gives a bit more context!
