Because lot's of people like pizza. These are really good pizzas. These are relatively cheap, really good pizzas.

The queue was horrendous at 8.30pm and still queuing at 10.00pm


The noise just walking past was pretty awful.


To my mind Pizza conjures up a dimly candle lit warm atmosphere with an orange glow.

Not to the horrendous bright lights of this new addition to Lordship Lane.

Reminiscent of a high street McDonalds.


Does not look like a relaxed atmosphere where one could experience a romantic

evening with a bottle of red.


What a shame.

Yep- you can't beat an authentic 1970's pizza experience

The number of people queuing up last night was borderline hysteria. I'm with those who equally cannot understand the fascination with this food type. It was loud, late on into the evening and I feel for anyone who lives in a flat above the shops on that stretch of the lane. Ridiculous.


Louisa.

Queuing for pizza! The world's gone mad. I do like pizza, though I don't eat it that often, so I'm damned if I'd ever queue for it. Same goes for William Rose Butchers on a Saturday. Why do people do it? I'll probably pop in during the week and give it a whirl when they're quieter, when most people are at work.

If that's FUN then the world has gone MAD.

    • London doesn’t have a lot of Argentinian places specialising in empanadas, which suggests demand isn’t that great. There are many neighbourhoods with none at all or even nearby.  So for a mini-chain like Chango (several branches in SW London) to open here where there’s already a well established family run place doing the same feels a bit off.  I’ll be giving Chacarero my ongoing custom. 
    • This is so helpful, everyone, thank you. @green bean Yes we have just (as of yesterday) installed the same external blinds you mention! We already had blackout blinds and we now have the external awnings too. Of course that will guarantee the end of the summer sunshine but I can see that they're going to be helpful as they let the light through but not the glare of the sun - I'm fed up of working in darkness with both the blackout blinds closed on sunny days. We'll see how we go with those for a bit but I reckon we'll get a couple of quotes from the other recommendations in case we end up going the whole hog. @penfold Love the idea of getting solar+batteries to offset the electricity usage so will look into that.  Thanks, all.
    • Yes Sally, I've emailed him several times since Xmas. I don't contact Councillors frequently but when I've done so over the years, I've found them generally engaged and responsive. It's unprecedented to just be ignored and, regardless of the query I'm raising, that's worrying from the point of view of  our local democratic voice. Its a Councillors role to represent local people! A different thread on here made reference to a lack of response from one of our ward councillors and, since there are only two, I'm guessing it's the same one. I'm following up my own concern separately but I'm asking on here about whether others have had the same problem. I'd like to think it's a one-off but, increasingly, I suspect it's not. Hope that gives a bit more context!
