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?

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
