With the reasonably high turnover of units in Lordship Lane, for example Headinizm and William Hill both recently going, what would you like to see in an empty units place?


I think i'd like to see a Pizza Hut open up on LL, as i feel it is a great value, decent quality restaurant for all and sundry. I have noticed with some alarm all the Pizza Hut restaurants disappearing in the last decade or so (why is this?), and think it would be great to have one on our doorstep for when we cant be bothered to cook and want some comfort food in a pleasant environment or simply to take away to devour front of X-Factor on a Saturday night. I feel that all other options we have on LL at the moment are geared towards those with lots of disposable income, or the complete opposite (see the grimey 'Kebab and Wine' or the cheap chicken shops) with not much in the middle. Pizza Hut would be ideal.


What would you like to see?

I would like to see a sports shop, not a JD Sports, but a shop selling cricket bats, pads, balls, hockey sticks, sports trainers, slips, tennis rackets, balls and the like.

Inter-Sports in Herne Hill is very good, but that is in Herne Hill.

I would also like to see a proper nightclub. Although i like going to Brixton and visiting the nightclubs there, i sometimes feel a bit of trepidation when i get the 37 home at 06:30 in the morning, get off at Goose Green and feel people looking at me like im a wrong 'un, who ought to have been in bed hours ago. It would be great to have a club that is right on my doorstep, the only thing close is 'Sylvester' which closes at 2 and is tiny.

There is one up by the Lordship Pub I think.

Have we got a knocking shop?


That would be unique on the lane with the Dutch style of display windows at the front and a proper madam up the back giving bribes to the rozzers to turn a blind eye to MPs and others turning up in their limos after buying whipping cream and celery from the coop


Failing that any independent type business welcome


(No, I never understood the flying helmet and celery gag in 'allo 'allo either)

I also miss the 414, a disgrace that the company that owns Brixton village saw fit to close down an institution and kick out the owners who lived above for 30 years.


I get the feeling that new place in Peckham ,which by all accounts just looks like part of the Bussey Building, will be for the young trendy types and not the pill munching old skool.

No pony. No it good.

It is actually quite good if you like meat and chips.

    • David Attenborough has also done programmes on this amazing relationship.  This is from 2010 but I am sure that there were more recent programmes on the Beeb https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p006ry61 Mummy trees are amazing.  
    • Have you considered PIV - positive input ventilation. We retro fitted a Soler & Palau super quiet in-line fan system. This takes cool air from the outside ans is ducted into the loft. It is really quiet and very efficient. It is controlled by a reverse thermostat ie one which shuts the system off when the temperature drops to a set level. We are very pleased with it especially as it costs a fraction of a/c and provides greater flexibility in terms of location of vents and ducting.
    • If you’re into nature or just love trees, this lovely program is worth catching up on https://www.channel5.com/show/the-secret-life-of-trees It’s one of those quietly fascinating watches that leave you thinking about the world a bit differently. I had no idea that trees are connected underground by fungal networks. They use them to share nutrients, water, and even to send signals to each other. They can recognise their kind and give more support to their “relatives” than to other trees nearby. They can also remember things like droughts or pest attacks and change how they respond in the future. No wonder so many cultures and spiritual traditions view trees as sacred. In some belief systems, cutting one down is thought to carry serious karmic consequences. When you learn about how they live, communicate, and support one another, it makes sense. The natural world is far more aware and interconnected than we tend to realise.
    • I installed an all-in-one air conditioning unit at my holiday home since I wasn’t allowed to have an external fan unit outside. It actually works just as well, was easier to fit, and although it’s slightly noisier, it’s a good solution overall. https://www.orionairsales.co.uk/all-in-one-air-conditioning-142-c.asp?srsltid=AfmBOopZSVZj1_utAO-Hr4m5M323nRZru6Zmf1YuT4KP2touJ2OLaruU
