LOOKING GOOD! F*CK YEAH! more people should try it.


I wore my Phoenix bomber jacket to the gym on Saturday in honour of this thread. Tomorrow, I'm taking three hipster Swede clients out for dinner - might wear my Olivia Newton John t-shirt and a vintage kimono.

"Nowadays someone who sticks old agricultural implements on the wall of a Los Angeles motel regards himself as on a par with Michelangelo; moreover, since all their friends are dickheads, too, no one is about to disabuse them. Hell, on Planet Dickhead just turning up the trip-hop can be a work of unalloyed genius"

Trust you to give them ideas.


From DRD:


"We're shocked and saddened by the response to Death Row Dinners and are genuinely very sorry for any offence caused. The pop up is intended to explore the concept of last meals; anyone who has ever been to a dinner party has probably had this conversation ? what would they love their last meal to be.


In light of the response to the idea we are considering our next steps and will update everyone with our decision."

Even without having been there and seen this person, I am finding myself hating them with far too much passion.

naaa, even when i was young and travelling i found your full moon party type hippy utterly insufferable.


And to be honest anyone who has the guts to make a business, even one as wanky as the last supper, complete with prices quoted in pieces of silver and ersatz roman shoe leather scents wafting around, gets respect from me.


It's the ones railing about injustice, and bartering the life out of their fake hessian coffee sack to furnish their overpriced flat off brick lane that mumsie is paying for....in their 30s!!!! that get my back up.

Oh whatever. Dancing with a cunting hula hoop on the train platform? I'd have wanted to stab him at the height of my social life.

Just for the record, it was a she. Replete with ethnic skirt and fake bindi decoration. And Beatz headphones. That finished the job off for me.


You know, I actually don't mind that scene that much. I've enjoyed the fact that Peckham now has some interesting bars and ironic country music nights. I love red wing boots, raw denim and plaid shirts.


But a ?$%&$% hula-hoop?!

    • Exactly that.  From all their communications at the time I just assumed it was something that was going to be done anyway so I just went along with it.  As per Froggy’s suggestion above I just went out to have a look at the readings (for the first time ever!) and it said 000078,231.  That’s for just short of three years.  I’ve no idea how that would translate to an actual bill though.  
    • Thanks both! Unfortunately my mobile doesn't support a charging mat. I will try the place by the station, which is more convenient for me than Forest Hill Road  I'm avoiding Rye Lane as my daughter had a very bad experience at one of the shops there (I think it was a battery replacement and the "new"  battery failed almost immediately. Unfortunately she doesn't live in London and couldn't take it back) and there are so many I don't know which may be ok.
    • No, unlike power meters they can force one on you, whether you want one or not. They did on me, and it's on the stopcock in the pavement outside my house. They can also force you to accept metered charges. 
    • They said you didn’t have a meter even though you did? Utterly bizarre.   I also thought that the water company wasn’t allowed to fit a meter unless you asked for one.
