Has anyone else noticed a distinctly late start to proceedings this year? Lordship Lane shops and bars were noticably quieter on Friday /Saturday than they should have been, takings down, less people about than this time last year...our annual City work bash (for clients too) was 65% last years turnout...but... looking at our bar tab they actually drank MORE.


I saw an early outrider santa hat at lunch in the last week of November, but only this week have proceedings felt festive.

Have you been drinking?


I noticed the lane being very quiet when I was out recently. Liqourish on a saturday night was very quiet but I thought being the last weekend of november explained that.


Suspect there is a general low level of expectation this year. Could just be age though. Christmas is for young people.

    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.   
    • @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance).
