if it helps steveo, houses are big things, normally with windows and doors and jumble sales tend to be boxes of crap clothes on tressel tables

Ha! Yes, this is becoming pleasingly mad.


But to bring it back on topic (sorry), the local estate agents sponsor several of the local schools for their fairs, jumble sales etc and actually make a huge contribution to the community in doing so. I know estate agents get a lot of bad press, but I've been involved in organizing sponsorship for my kids' school - Heber - and I've been surprised by how generously and enthusiastically they've supported our events (thank you Winkworth, DaisyLets, Haarts, Jacksons and Spencer Kennedy!). So credit where it is due - their involvement makes a huge difference to us and many other local schools.


But no, the boards are simply there to advertise the event, nothing to do with that property being for sale.

    • Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?  
    • Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain. 
    • Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
