I also remember the street from the early 90s when the Bishop Brewery was still up at Borough and bermondsey antiques market was very popular because a bye-law meant that if you 'accidentally' bought stolen goods there they were yours for keeps - not sure if that's still the case but it made the place a right den of duckers and divers on a Friday morning.
I'm writing a piece "In search of the Raider" in which I attempt to track down the famous local blogger and his half life chum at a Hamlets game purely from his silhouette Twitter pic. All we know is that he's hairy, likes job centres and garden centres...and rollies.

Thanks for the feedback, and interesting piece, Steveo, thanks for posting.


As for tracking me down... Well, I'll be in Margate on Saturday, drinking ale in the Lifeboat ahead of the Margate v Dulwich Hamlet game. Come and say hello!

Sounds like your perfect day: Ale in suitable alehouse > pink and blues


Unfortunately I'll be on baby cover but the Margate trip sounds great. I've always wanted to go there after reading cockney w@nker in Viz when i was a kid.Think it was his destination of choice?

    • You'd need to get a proper quote (or three) for instance removing a cast iron bath is a very different job from removing an acrylic one. Again what pipe work will be being joined into - matching old imperial pipes with modern metric ones is different from like to like, as is dealing with a copper or an iron distribution system. The amount (area) of retiling required is an issue, as will be the state of the wall behind the tiles. It may of course all be very plain sailing, or not. Have a first look at plumber recommendations on the relevant pages on this site. If it's all easy then 3 days work may be sufficient. But it could be a week if there are snags. 
    • Hi. Can anyone suggest a plumber for the job below? Replace bath tub with a shower enclosure, putting pipes to showerhead behind wall, re-titling damaged/removed tiles Also any idea of the costs involved for the labour as we will buy the items required?
    • Aria came round to fix my tub drain when I'd messed up the seal. Came within hours, fixed the tub, and ran a bath to make sure it was okay. Here's where the fun starts. While he was over, I asked him questions about the rest of the plumbing round the house. I had just moved into a Victorian home that was previously being rented. Unsurprisingly, we found another leak in the tub and a drip in the kitchen tap.  He came back the next day to put a better pipe in my bathtub and replace the kitchen sink. Painstakingly figured out how to replace the hard-to-access kitchen sink without cutting through the wood panel with the help of his builder friend, Mark. Answered all my questions and clearly knew his stuff. All this right before Christmas holidays!
