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?

    • Southwark Council upgrades the public realm in Dulwich: this is disgusting favouritism for the rich! It's disgraceful!!! Southwark Council upgrades the public realm in Peckham: this is disgusting social cleansing! It's disgraceful!!! #SouthwarkDerangementSyndrome is real By the way, aficionados of prostitution and drugs will be happy to hear they remain a problem in the streets south of King's Cross station, just as they were when I lived there prior to gentrification. (To be clear: they weren't a problem because of my presence). I'm sure that will be a great relief to some of our friends on here that are scared knocking down a derelict building will turn Peckham into Royal Tunbridge Wells overnight.
    • I very much hope 'social cleansing' is not on the cards - the great value of Peckham is its rich mix of people both living and visiting the areas. If you mean removal or discouragement of criminal activity (including vandalism) then I would agree of course - and I would be very much in favour of actual cleaning in the area - the fact that Peckham is 'mixed class' is a good thing, surely (which is what 'social cleansing' often refers to). Kings Cross (which stimulated this part of the debate) had a very significant prostitution and drugs culture - with some elements of rack-renting and significant criminality. It was also far more 'run-down' and over a wider area) than the area around our station - even if that could do with more investment.
    • Yet we can. Given the development of the shopping centre, the expensive flats, lack of social hosing, closure of the stalls and hairdressers around the station to make room for the new square, I think it's quite clear where this is going.   It's not improving the area for the existing, its removal of the existing to make it better for the upgrade of the area.
