You've done it again Giggi and TLS, had a crap journey into work today, which even reading Simon Gray's Smoking Diaries couldn't improve.

The tin hat was placed on it when I kicked an abandoned cup of coffee not knowing it was half full and befouled my shiny boots.

Then along the two of you come and change my internal soundtrack from Slipknot's People = Sh!t to Ray Stevens Everything Is Beautiful in just two short posts.


HUGS to you both. (For TLS of course a manly 'bear' style one and for Giggi a gentle one.)

Dear Mr Honalooloo,


I am writing to tell you to go out and buy this month's Mojo magazine as it has a massive 12-page spread on your all time faves Mott The Hoople by Kris Needs and includes celeb fan tributes from the likes of Mick Jones, Tony James, Morrisey and Noel Gallagher and very good it is too though I suspect you may have already taken my advice but just in case you've not there it is.


All my lunch,


Jah x

Thanks for the heads up JL, but I already have said magazine.

Haven't read it yet, as I am saving it to savour over a brace or so of pints.

Kris Needs is well placed to write about MTH, he ran their fan club Sea Divers.

The late Benhazir Bhutto was a member you know.

The CD ain't half bad neither.

...and it's a treat that you still feel the same since 8th January LuLu.

But love me, love my Mott The Hoople.

I don't want any complications in the 'afterglow'.

And as you say, back to me...

    • Surprise, surprise. It didn't take them long, did it. This will be something of a test as to how much the council really care about parks and the environment. A footfall of 60,000. Are they mad? There is no way this park is designed for or can sustain that sort of use. Just had a look at the schedule. If allowed to go ahead, this will involve a large slice of the park (not the common) sectioned off and out of use for three weeks of May and the first week of June. Here's an idea, why not trial the festival in one of the other Southwark Parks, so the 'goodness' can be shared around the borough?
    • There was another unprovoked attack on Monday this week on a young woman nearby (Anstey Road) at 6.45pm. Don't have any other details, it was posted on a Facebook group by her flatmate. Pretty worrying  https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1EGfDrCAST/
    • OMFG is it possible for the council to do anything without a bunch of armchair experts moaning about it? The library refurb is great news, as it's lovely but completely shagged out - the toilets don't even work reliably. Other libraries in the area will be open longer house during the closure. July is a rubbish time to begin a refurb because it's just before the entire construction sector goes on summer holiday, and it would mean delaying the work another 8 months.
    • Licensing application for 2026 has gone in and they want to extend the event from 4 to 7 days accross two weekends.  There are some proposed significant changes to be aware of:   Event proposal moves to two separate weekends Number of days of the festival moves from 4 to 7 meaning also a change in the original licence is required Expected footfall in the park over the two weekends around 60,000.    Dear Peckham Rye Park Stakeholder,   Re: STAKEHOLDER CONSULTATION – event application: ‘GALA and On The Rye Festival 2026’ – ref: SWKEVE000935   We are writing to you because you have previously identified yourself as someone who wishes to be informed about event applications for Peckham Rye Park, or we think that you might have an interest in knowing about this particular event application.   Please be aware that the council are in receipt of an event application for: GALA and On The Rye Festival 2026’   In line with the council’s Outdoor Events Policy and events application process we are carrying out consultation regarding this application.   The following reference documents are attached to this email:   Consultation information APPENDIX A – site plan weekend 1 APPENDIX B – site plan weekend 2 APPENDIX C – Production Schedule APPENDIX D – 2025 Noise Management Plan   The consultation is open from Tuesday 4 November and will close at midnight on Tuesday 2 December 2025   Community engagement sessions will take place on Wednesday 19 November.   If you would like to comment on application: SWKEVE000935 and take part in the online consultation, please visit:   www.southwark.gov.uk/GALA2026   If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact us.     Kind Regards, Southwark Events Team Environment and Leisure PO Box 64529 London SE1P 5LX 020 7525 3639 @SouthwarkEvents APPENDIX A - SITE PLAN weekend 1.pdf APPENDIX B - SITE PLAN weekend 2.pdf APPENDIX C - PRODUCTION SCHEDULE.pdf And just to add that councillor Renata Hamvas chairs the licensing committee.
