I've never figured out why Lordship has become a yuppie hub, I'm in my 40's now but I still have memories of Lordship Lane as a kid when it was tacky and uncool, especially the Tesco..possibly the worst supermarket for miles, staffed by retards (sorry meant to say they were not customer centric)

When I come into money, I will be opening a pokey, dingy retro '80s bar called "glAss war" ( with the usual Anarchist "A" symbol ) & decorating the interior with pages from radical '80s literature eg " die yuppie scum" headlines & " another Royal parasite" and portraits of Derek Hatton and suchlike


A worthy succesor to inside 72


Sadly, this would probabaly do quite well amongst the clapham diasapora with their kids clad in Ironic Che & Militant Tshirts ( Families welcome until 9PM / Bar menu available/ We only use fair trade coffee in our lattes )

That's a point, did anyone actually see the body, or did the Bolivians let him go off to peaceful retirement in S E London?

How come you're not in the People's Republic of Tooting Keef, but stuck here with the Clapham Bourgeois immigrants huh...huh?

Snorky darling,


Will you provide soya milk for your lattes?


And Pagey dear heart, to refer to people as "retards" is jolly unkind and un PC and just well - "un" everything actually. I am afraid that it is to the naughty step with you. If I hear any more of this disgraceful chit chat, I shall slap your legs and get my house-keeper to wash your mouth out with soap.

hey dulwichmum, you're right I deserve a stern reprimand..it was a moment of madness due to work related stress in the City. Staff weren't retards, they merely lacked customer focus ( is that better ?)


Country is in dire need of good news like Cliff Richard announces his musical retirement..gosh that would really cheer up the nation

Darling Pagey,


I forgive you. You can come off the step now.


However, I shall be watching you closely in future (said putting hands on hips).


I don't know. I step outside for five minutes and the tone gets lowered (running perfectly manicureed hands through glossy brunette mane).


Shall I open a bottle then? Anyone for Chablis?

Yes I remember the days when Lordship Lane wasn't so yuppified! Me and sisters and friends used to go to the Magdala Friday and Saturday nights and you couldn't move as it was disco night! This is going back early 80's.


Also late 70's early 80's the Somerfield used to be International and I used to take my Mum shopping in my car.


Lordship Lane was really dreary then - nothing like now - why can't the same thing happen to Camberwell?

#I know, it was all so simple then, but has time rewritten every line.#

Come a Friday, a fellow with money in his pocket, and lust in his loins could find a companion.

For an evening. If not a night. But like Gladys Knight & The Pips, it's all changed. And not for the better.

The chances of meeting an old fashioned one-night-stand slag are now remote in the SE22 area. Or are they?

I gather a chap has to 'go forrin', and as far as Peckham or Camberwell for that sort of thing, nowadays.

I wonder what happened to the Pips?

    • A bit of a long shot but I'm on the lookout for a portable pop-up counter or podium.   The kind you often see on a high street, used by charities or utility companies to advertise their wares.   I've included a photo to give you the idea. I'm a peckham-based artist and am looking for one for a free (and non-profit) community art project.  It can be in any workable condition and can already have signage on it as we will remove and redecorate ourselves.    Thanks in advance, Linzie
    • No I absolutely did not - that much is clear. Have you read the latest stories about Unite, Len and the hotel in Birmingham? The UK electorate were smart enough to reject a far-left party in 2019, let's hope they are smart enough to reject a far-right party at the next election too. If not we are all doomed.
    • I would also like to add my recommendation for James.  I had taken four names of electricians from the forum - in the order I had read the reviews.  First three no response - even days later. I phoned James this morning. He answered, gave me a time, stuck to it, messaged again 15 mins before arrival.  He fixed my problem on the spot.  Sensible charge out fee. Perfect service.  
    • Most recent polls for the next election suggest it will be a hung parliament, with Reform the largest party by a fair margin. But that is predicated on Reform finding around 300 candidates who are actually electable. Given the number of Reform council candidates who have had to drop out prior to or after the local elections, does that seem likely? Social media is pretty unforgiving when it comes to finding skeletons in cupboards; a retweet or a like seems enough to scupper political ambitions. A few may defect from other parties, but do you think the electorate would really vote for so many brand new MPs from a newish party?  I'm not so sure.
