I might try for some London ones, would like to get down to St Marys but the train tickets put me off. Am hoping we might end up somewhere other than bottom of the table this term, so should be more fun (given the lack of a manager and the -10 points I'm not going for promotion). Otherwise I'll be in the cpt! How about you?

My brother and parents have bought 2 season tickets between us. I tend to go down with my eldest (17) and sometimes second eldest (15) mainly the evening games.


My eldest will try and go down with a friend on Saturdays probably my coach. He is trying the coach out for the first time at the weekend for the Ajax game (we are fortuate that my parents live there still). On occasion I have gone down on my motorbike.


We definately go to some london games especially the very local ones.

Good work! That's more of an effort than I've ever made, but whne I get my own transport.... (hope the missus isn't reading!). I'd have liked to have gone to the Ajax game, should be good fun hope the edlest enjoys it. You've got me thinking now - who are we playing in Lonodn?! Milwall, Charlton, then I'm stumpped!

He'll fit in perfectly then! ;)

Well the bookies fancy the three relegated from the premiership to get back up again, plus Reading. But as Newcastle seem to be disintegrating rapidly I wonder if they will even finish in the top half of the division? I am not sure what Reading in a post-Coppell world are capable of either. But Ipswich managed by Roy Keane look a good outside bet...And you're right about Sheffield United - definitely don't back us!


I wonder who Leeds will spend the Delph money on? Surely they are going to start the long haul back soon??

Obviously I'm hoping Ipswich will be up there, but it's been a strange summer of mainly rumours rather than exciting new signings. Apparently Priskin is putting pen to paper today, and Lee Martin, a young winger we signed from Man U, looks good. I'd be disappointed if we didn't at least make the play-offs.


I think Boro will struggle to score enough goals, but they should be good enough for the top six. I'd go for WBA, Sheff U and maybe Cardiff to be pushing for automatic promotion.

      New Empanada Place on LL

      By dan b · Posted

      London doesn’t have a lot of Argentinian places specialising in empanadas, which suggests demand isn’t that great. There are many neighbourhoods with none at all or even nearby.  So for a mini-chain like Chango (several branches in SW London) to open here where there’s already a well established family run place doing the same feels a bit off.  I’ll be giving Chacarero my ongoing custom.

      Has anyone retrospectively fit aircon in a loft conversion?

      By redjam · Posted

      This is so helpful, everyone, thank you. @green bean Yes we have just (as of yesterday) installed the same external blinds you mention! We already had blackout blinds and we now have the external awnings too. Of course that will guarantee the end of the summer sunshine but I can see that they're going to be helpful as they let the light through but not the glare of the sun - I'm fed up of working in darkness with both the blackout blinds closed on sunny days. We'll see how we go with those for a bit but I reckon we'll get a couple of quotes from the other recommendations in case we end up going the whole hog. @penfold Love the idea of getting solar+batteries to offset the electricity usage so will look into that.  Thanks, all.

      Councillor Jon Hartley

      By MaryT · Posted

      Yes Sally, I've emailed him several times since Xmas. I don't contact Councillors frequently but when I've done so over the years, I've found them generally engaged and responsive. It's unprecedented to just be ignored and, regardless of the query I'm raising, that's worrying from the point of view of  our local democratic voice. Its a Councillors role to represent local people! A different thread on here made reference to a lack of response from one of our ward councillors and, since there are only two, I'm guessing it's the same one. I'm following up my own concern separately but I'm asking on here about whether others have had the same problem. I'd like to think it's a one-off but, increasingly, I suspect it's not. Hope that gives a bit more context!
