I haven't been but I've been caught up in the traffic it caused. An hours wait for a 176 on Charing Cross road (only had bus tickets that day - don't ask) and then 45 minutes to go around Trafalgar Square with a bus driver that wouldn't let one off.


Avoid the area unless you want to go to the Festival.

the guy organising this thing is a really nice bloke. But he was running late for the interview and the American guy had turned up early for his slot... but not everyone had picked up what was going on, and hey the America guy looked Russian (he really does) so they started to introduce him as the organiser of the Russian festival. His face was a picture


Cassius - bad luck. I've been there on more than one occassion. No use to you now, I know but that whole Oxford St to Waterloo section takes so long even on a good day, if I have any zip about me at all I'll walk the couple of hundred yards to Somerset house - it might save time or it might take a bit longer depending, but stress levels are decimated

      Promo counter/ trade-show stand wanted for community art project.

      By Lillo · Posted

      A bit of a long shot but I'm on the lookout for a portable pop-up counter or podium.   The kind you often see on a high street, used by charities or utility companies to advertise their wares.   I've included a photo to give you the idea. I'm a peckham-based artist and am looking for one for a free (and non-profit) community art project.  It can be in any workable condition and can already have signage on it as we will remove and redecorate ourselves.    Thanks in advance, Linzie

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      No I absolutely did not - that much is clear. Have you read the latest stories about Unite, Len and the hotel in Birmingham? The UK electorate were smart enough to reject a far-left party in 2019, let's hope they are smart enough to reject a far-right party at the next election too. If not we are all doomed.

      Electrician (Highly recommended) - James Seth

      By AlanMBarr · Posted

      I would also like to add my recommendation for James.  I had taken four names of electricians from the forum - in the order I had read the reviews.  First three no response - even days later. I phoned James this morning. He answered, gave me a time, stuck to it, messaged again 15 mins before arrival.  He fixed my problem on the spot.  Sensible charge out fee. Perfect service.

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      By David Peckham · Posted

      Most recent polls for the next election suggest it will be a hung parliament, with Reform the largest party by a fair margin. But that is predicated on Reform finding around 300 candidates who are actually electable. Given the number of Reform council candidates who have had to drop out prior to or after the local elections, does that seem likely? Social media is pretty unforgiving when it comes to finding skeletons in cupboards; a retweet or a like seems enough to scupper political ambitions. A few may defect from other parties, but do you think the electorate would really vote for so many brand new MPs from a newish party?  I'm not so sure.
