>> but you cant get upset because someone wants to build two buildings next to each other that happen to be tall and exploding in a sort of pluming office furniture and burning jet fuel fashion


No you're right, its a classic architectural design pattern ;)

The colloquial use of the term ?believe? really gets to me. Someone just asked me if I ?believe? in the national infrastructure plan.


Well there is a copy of it sitting on my desk but I concede that this alone is not reliable proof of its existence.


The look on their face indicated that they weren?t trying to pass the afternoon by considering a philosophical conundrum.


I wonder if this world will wake up tomorrow to find that it is actually a butterfly that was just dreaming that is was a universe filled with inane annoyance.

I believe it may.

LOL....I think those pics maxxi show just how different the two buildings are, rather than how similar they are but I have to admit that it may be that the 'cloud' idea was inspired by the twin towers. I still think the result is an interesting and attractive building....although I know it won't be everyone's cup of tea.

    • Thanks all!  KateS - boulangerie Jade is a nice cafe, but they don't do fresh cream cakes. Their eclairs are filled with patisserie cream (a kind of custard), not fresh cream. Azalea- thanks and I've been to Bunhead Bakery (a Palestinian bakery) in Herne Hill a few times. There's a nice chocolate bun they do, which is amazing when then sauce is warmed up. But I haven't seen any fresh cream things there, only white icing. Maybe it's only on a certain day.  And the last time I checked, Ayres bakers in Nunhead don't do fresh cream things. These are the kind of fresh baked goods I'm thinking of....      
    • Warning to parents using the playground in Dulwich Park. My daughter and her friends found a bag of ‘crunchy powder’ in the children’s playground this morning around 11ish. They thought it was ‘popping candy’ and all tried some before seen with it. Request to parents using the playground - if you see plastics bags with suspect looking contents or powder on the floor in the playground or park: pick it up and throw it in the bin. Don’t walk past and think someone else will deal with it. The next person to walk by might be a child who could pick it up not understanding what it could be. Hopefully our daughter and her friends will be ok and it’s a lucky escape. But please be aware in case anyone else’s child may have found it before them.
    • I’m looking for some ply sheets, ideally 9mm or 12mm. It doesn’t have to look good. As long as it’s not rotten it’ll be fine. I’d like bigger sheets, but I’m open to whatever anyone’s got. If you can help, drop me a DM.  Cheers 
    • the only known name is from that poster in the window where it says to email [email protected]. I thought that website might shed some light on who is creating the posters I hope whoever was attacked is doing ok, but agree there is something very off/vigilante-ish about all of this
