The new ice rink/leisure centre is in Streatham, more or less where it used to be (on the High Street, close to Streatham Common). There's an enormous new Tesco right next door, you can't miss it. I think you'll have to go and have a look, they don't seem to answer to email and I haven't been able to get hold of a phone number. I did go and see it last Saturday and it is very nice indeed. Huge ice rink, very beautiful!
Oh, the Redskins are back - and then some! On a bit of a surge at the moment with a few victories against some better-resourced teams, including their arch-nemeses, those bad boys from Invicta. Attendances seem to be well up, which is good news for everyone - more of an atmosphere and more income to balance the books. There seems to still be a healthy plexi-banging tradition kept up, so even though it's all new, old times aren't far away. Worth a visit one weekend.

Nope, no Gary Stefan but Joe Johnston's wearing the C - and Warren Rost, suited and booted, is the Coach. (if you're of an era to remember Gary, you may also be interested/sad to hear that Joe's grandfather, Alex, died last week) There is still a great sense of family about the team and now the Zamboni works, the ice is frozen and the spectators are warm it's deffo worth a visit. Invicta on Saturday, 5.30 face-off. Eat 'em raw.

    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
    • CPR Dave, attendance records are available on Southwark's website. Maggie Browning has attended 100% of meetings. Jon Hartley has attended 65%.
    • I do hope NOT, wouldn't trust Farage as far as I could throw him, Starmer & co.  He's backed by GB News which focus's predominantly on immigration while the BBC focus predominantly on the Israel - Gazza conflict.   
    • Everyone gets the point that Corbynites try to make with the "total number of votes cast" statistic, it's just a specious one.  In 2017, Corbyn's Labour got fewer votes than May's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes). In 2019, Corbyn's Labour fewer votes than Johnson's Tories (both the percentage of votes and aggregate number of votes); and he managed to drop 2.7 million votes or 6.9% of vote share between the two elections. I repeat, he got trounced by Boris F***ing Johnson and the Tories after the Brexit omnishambles. It is not true that a "fairer" electoral system would have seen Labour beat the Tories: Labour simply got fewer votes than the Tories. Corbyn lost twice. There is no metric by which he won the general election. His failure to win was a disaster for the UK, and let Johnson and Truss and Sunak into office. Corbynites have to let go of this delusion that Corbyn but really won somehow if you squint in a certain way. It is completely irrelevant that Labour under Corbyn got more votes than Labour under Starmer. It is like saying Hull City was more successful in its 2014 FA Cup Final than Chelsea was in its 2018 FA Cup Final, because Hull scored 2 goals when Chelsea only scored 1. But guess what - Chelsea won its game and Hull City lost. Corbyn's fans turned out to vote for him - but an even larger group of people who found him repellant were motivated enough to show up and vote Tory.
