...for losing the election,you realised like the people of London that it was time for you to go.

You did some good things as mentioned above (though anyone who thinks the 'bendies' are a good thing is sectionable in my haughty opinion) but you long lived out your usefulness.

Cheerio, napoo, goodbye.

Good post HonaloochieB I agree with you about the 'bendies' and also agree about him outliving his usefulness, but what I vehemently apposed most of all was the messing with the traffic lights, 2 minutes on stop and 10 seconds on go, all to get his congestion charge in place. The place choking in fumes and nobody moving by foot nor wheel.

Thank you for standing up to central government;


for opposing the PPP financing of the tube;


for making public transport noticeably better than it was 8 years ago;


for befriending democratically elected South American leaders and giving London access to cheap fuel;


for being a international diplomat and attracting investment in cosmopolitan city;


for sticking two fingers up to Associated Newspapers!


Have a good retirement.

    • Just a quick post to say that my restaurant reviews column is now one year old. There are 45 reviews here* - mostly of local places (some sadly now defunct, others thriving). There are a couple of recipes from a period when I couldn't afford to eat out, a couple of moans about my health when I couldn't eat out on doctor's orders and a couple of reviews beyond our manor. But the main thing is that it is a free, useful guide to local dining and, I hope, an entertaining read. You can, of course, pay to subscribe or follow for free to get the reviews directly into your inbox as I don't want to spam EDF with every review (doctor says I'm not allowed spam anyway). The pictures below come from my two most popular reviews - Persepolis (new SE22 spin-off opening soon) and Norbert's, a great addition to East Dulwich. Please have a read and please consider subscribing. Did I mention you can subscribe for free?   https://eatsdulwich.substack.com/  *It would have been 46 but one review didn't run because the meal was so disappointing. I try not to be negative. To paraphrase Boyzone (or is it Westlife?) I said it best by saying nothing at all. 
    • I'd like to recommend Andy - came out very last minute to help us with a rental property that was having plumbing issues. We couldn't source the problem but Andy was able to find it / fix it easily & took the stress out of the problem. We have booked him again to put in a new bath for us now too as we were so happy with this work.    Lovely fella - thoroughly recommend using! Andy's number is 07983 688 451
    • If you're looking for a reasonably priced gym, there are a couple of PureGyms not too far away in Camberwell and Peckham. They're less than £20 a month with no joining fee. If you're looking to get fitter and / or lose weight, and you don't have any mobility issues, then download the coach to 5k app and start running. It's by far the easiest, quickest and cheapest way to improve your cardiovascular fitness and it's great for clearing your head!
