We will also be meeting in The Actress today at 1pm for the Newcastle game - pop along and say hello!


Up the Villa!

Ah, the best ever football song (to a sea shanty tune):


The Holte End they sing and the Holte End they Shout

They sing about things about things they know FA about

[then it goes a bit nineteen seventies, so I will lose most of you]


Chim-chiminee-chim-chimmine-chim chim charoo.


Yippee yiyay

As a glory hunter, is there any chance of Villa being good in the near future? I'm looking for a new team to follow and have once been to Villa Park. I like the club colours and will be a loyal follower if you can give me some assurances. I have an Aunt in Birmingham which should cover any potential snide remarks regarding my credentials.

Rah rah come on Arston Villar. I'll send my man over with my application form. Technically Downing Street being in South London.

Monster, wicked. I once played a concert at Crystal Palace Park, therefore I can join as well.

My team's cowin rubbish. Can I join too?

Ratty, I have avoided the obvious despite it being a raucously good song, and very self depricatory.


I of course forgot another potential member, another man of the people. I understand HRH Billy himself. Another Sarf Londoner by post code.


I'm sure you have already got this chubby feller in the club, if not I know how to contact him as he lives in Balum:




Warning, the sound quality is awful.

    • Would you like a copy of my spreadsheet? It's hours of fun.
    • Callout for help from any local experts here. Looking to find out more about the history of the property on the corner of Whateley Road and Ulverscroft road (with the green glazed bricks). Now a residential property, i'm told it was a bottle shop in days gone (the house was built around 1900) by and i'd like to learn more about the history of the business that was once here - name, photos, anything at all really! Seems to be very little from open source research so i'm hoping anyone with history in the area can provide any insight!  Starting here before i contact Southwark Archives or similar orgs to get any information and pictures (any advice here also would be welcome). Thank you
    • Portable ramps are available for businesses to use in this sort of situation, aren't they? I don't know whether one would be suitable for use here, or whether they have the space to store one. Lots of people have  permanent or temporary disabilities which mean they have to use crutches or a wheelchair.
    • I can’t remember where I read that figure but this article in the Grauniad from 2023 discusses Ocado results from 2022. The average shopping cart fell to £118 from £129 the previous year. But Ocado lost £500m that year on approximately 20 million orders (circa 400k orders per week). So, averaging out to £25 lost per order. Ocado pauses building new warehouses as annual losses balloon to £500m | Ocado | The Guardian  Obviously, the £500m loss includes various factors. But Ocado has existed for 25 years and only made a small profit in a couple of those years. The rest have been huge losses. Yet it continues to raise funds and speculation sends the share price up and down. In that respect,  it’s like the UK version of Tesla. Meanwhile, the main growth in the supermarket sector has been for Aldi and Lidl, who do not deliver.
