Yeh I'm a sad git, that moment when Living South lands on my doormat is the highlight of my month :))


No, it's actually because I want to see what they have written about the Goose :))

I got you. If by some freak accident (ie you haven't paid yet) you are the recipient of the only ever slightly negative review of anything ever in Living South, that might actually be a mark of pride - one for the billboards.

How cynical!


I haven't paid them anything (couldn't afford to!) and it isn't a review, as they weren't there - I sent them some info and some pix of our opening night with Dave Swarbrick at the end of March because I thought they might think it would make a good article, and they did - but, I haven't seen it yet.


I thought it was going into the May issue, but they said it would be in the June one.


It's interesting (well I think so!) partly because of the Swarb angle and partly because the EDT used to have folk music in the eighties, and now it has again.


:)-D

I havent had it for yonks (Living South that is - before any smart ar5e responds) .... and quite sadly complained to Living South at the lack of it over last few months. They sent one in the post for April but still havent had June edition.


Useless!


I'm looking for the ads in the back for certain traders...

Hey that's really kind, I'll wait and see if it comes by tomorrow and if not, yes that would be brilliant, thank you so much xx :)

I used to work in a Recycling Centre (a.k.a public tip) where the most regular visitors were blokes in white vans dumping massive quantities of free newspapers, leaflets etc. If you don't get a copy soon email Living South I'm sure they'd be interested to hear! Haven't had ours yet but will give it a few days.......

Finding it hard to believe that people actually want this over-glossed ad mag stuffed through their door.


They are worse than Readers Digest. Twice on the most freezing days last winter I came home to find that they had stuffed this pesty mag into the letterbox, leaving it wedged wide open all day and turning the house into a 3* ice box. Same thing today, and as there are rats running around outside, this is absolutely not a joke.


I have asked them half a dozen times over the years to stop putting it through my door. It's a hugely silly waste of paper and my heating bill.


How can I stop these vandals?

    • If it's the same one I'm thinking of, it was a little further down the road towards LL, probably where the Fresh Flower Company is today. I'd forgotten all about it, with good reason. I think it disappeared before Blue Mountain opened and became a pizza place? I once bought a carton of milk from the deli and when I opened it, it was solid. I did get my money back though.
    • But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
    • Oh, I didn't know that! I didn't move here till 1991 (I think) but the NCR incarnation must have been around that time? Unless my failing memory is even worse than I thought it was, sob.
    • I just googled, and apparently there's another branch of the Soho Street Govinda's  in Theobald's Road. I had no idea.
