Have they gone? I hope so. I didn't care for them much either and I think they are what put a lot of people off going in there in the first place.


Best of luck Nadia. Keep up the good work.

Hi LikkleWabbit

The little Yorkie is mine - he is called Archie but comes ova with me when I am meeting with Nadia - I live and have my office in Hackney so don't come over every day

Archie says "wuff-wuff" for thinking of him

Not necessarily as if you want to sell it as a going concern you'd carry on as usual and taking bookings. So I'll just see what happens. Had heard about it from 2 different sources, so I did not start the rumour for those of you that seem to think I did. Just questioning what I had heard. Like I said previosly nobody has actually said no its not on the market.

Have you even bothered to read The Rose's post?

The Herne, Clock House and Rye Hotel are all wonk.


The FHT, aka Rose, aka The Royal Oak, make some attempt to be a real pub, with locals, a pub quiz that is not a clone of all the other ones doing the rounds and some live music.


True the beer is a disaster but then again if there are only a few of us who drink it. And lots of things they do don't seem to work.


But it is not the Herne, Clock House or Rye, so you can go in and sit down and have a drink without feeling a lepper because you are not eating.

I never eat in the Rye, maybe I'm seen as a leper :0


They used to have Saturday night live bands - but not since the summer holidays.

    • Both notoriously “lovely” people to spend any time with or worse, serve 
    • No, just no.  Zero tolerance does not mean we expect zero crime but that we do not accept a standard level as normal and unavoidable. For those who have suffered such “minor” crimes, myself included having had my house broken into,  it is clear from the lack of action that they are considered “acceptable”’. Once small crimes become known to be ignored, it changes where and how we live.     
    • Lloyd Weber and Cilla Black were supposed to leave when Blair got in, but didn't
    • You can't have zero tolerance unless you live in a fascist/police state.  Sadly it is something you have to accept in a democracy.  There has always been crime, even in North Korea, the Soviet bloc, Nazi Germany, Cambodia under the Khmer Rouge etc.   The discussion point is how big a police force we need and capabilities, punishment, and building communities.  And how much we are prepared to pay in extra taxation. Even in the good (economic) times there is crime.  And crime under both Labour and Tory governments. I do not accept that phone thefts and parcel thefts are just statistics.  Police have to prioritise what they do, we might not agree with it.  And most criminals are multi-tasking, moving to where the best return is considering the risk of being caught. And there has to be a market, someone somewhere needs to buy a stolen product (I never buy off Gumtree). A starting point would be to decriminalise all illegal drugs, but that is definitely for a separate Lounge conversation, interesting discussion paper here: https://kar.kent.ac.uk/105520/1/A. Stevens - In defence of the decriminalisation of drug possession in the uk - PPDF.pdf Did you watch any of the series of Peaky Blinders?  This was a very popular series that glorified gang crime and violence.  Funny (ironic) that may enjoy films and TV that does this.  Although only the first series had any historical accuracy in it,  Criminal gangs were around before and ever since.
