Afternoon,


I had nothing else to do so I put together a boozy, woozy art crawl in North Lambeth and Southwark.


Warning: swearing, drinking and illegal activities.


(Once again, I blame Half-life for all the above)

Thanks, Jah Lush.


I meant to say, I am planning another in the spring - Brixton, Camberwell, Peckham, Dulwich.


South London Gallery and Dulwich Picture Gallery are shoe-ins, but would welcome suggestions of smaller galleries that people like.


And pubs ;)

By Peckham, I guess you mean Bellenden. If so the Vic Inn, with the Gowlett and the Montpelier on the way down from ED, form a holy trinity. As for galleries, try The Arches on Blenheim Grove (for good art and nice people) and Flat Time House on Bellenden (for something more cerebral) are possibilities.
In Herne Hill there's that poppy-uppy installationy gallery thing on Railton Rd within stumbling distance of the Commercial and the Florence that looks quite interesting. There used to be a bar called Escape opposite the station that did art as well but that has sadly gone.

Another great post.


I am wondering what would have happened if I hadn't resisted the temptation to press the "do not touch this button" button on the right hand side though.... It's like telling even the most well behaved kid not to blow through their straw when given a glass of pop in a restaurant... temptation overwhelming!

Thanks for all the feedback and suggestions.


Didn't know about The Arches - is that different to Peckham Springs (which is on the putative list)?


Nor the Borough Road Gallery - good tip, thanks - wish I'd put it in art crawl #1

    • I am  ill in bed with Covid. It's not that I "can't be bothered" to read things. I am feeling crap and don't have the mental  energy at the moment. I am not "brushing stuff aside and pleading ignorance." I am truthfully saying when I don't presently know enough about something to be able to comment. I have always been very careful to try to  differentiate between fact and opinion in both  my posts and other people's, and I am not clear what your point is. And I am certainly not trying to wind anybody up. This is a forum. If you don't want to respond to my posts, that's up to you. I'm not sure why you feel the need to announce it.   
    • @NewWave I know how you feel. Like you, I've lived and spent prolonged periods of time in some pretty crazy places and always thought I could handle a bunch of kids. But, no - they got to me and I was shaking like a leaf afterwards. That's what age does to us.  But I did engage with them, so bear that in mind.  My advice would be to never let anything like that stop you doing the things you love. I'm certainly not going to stop using the park, there's no way they get to take away our cherished spaces!  If you see them, just change tack and keep out of their way. My dog won't even go that way again, so that's that problem solved. (If I see them again, I'm going to keep taking photos from a safe distance).
