Back again - this is totally addictive! Anyhow, I just could not resist this one - even if the lyrics are a bit suspect, the footage is amazing - and I think I was there! How weird is that - seeing a gig you were at in your youth, almost 30 years later on your computer! More later... Black Uhuru, Shine Eye Gal

As did my hubby! As did Peter Hunningale (reggae singer), Ken Livingstone (I think) and Levi Roots (of reggae sauce). Not bad for a now-flattened crap school!


PS: Jah, hubby was in "Temple House"...where were you?

      Planning application - new Underhill Rd residential development

      By CPR Dave · Posted

      "2.2.1 The Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB) has undertaken a comprehensive consultation process with its residents and stakeholders regarding the proposed development which aims to create 41 additional units and has been designed to address the growing demand for accessible and supportive accommodation for individuals with visual impairments. 2.2.2 The consultation process has been a key part of the planning phase, ensuring that the needs and preferences of current residents are taken into account. RNIB has held several meetings, workshops, and surveys to gather feedback on the design, facilities, and overall impact of the new development. Residents have been encouraged to share their views on various aspects, including accessibility features, communal spaces, and the integration of the new blocks with the existing infrastructure which has directly informed the proposals. 2.2.3 The Applicant also engaged with the local MP, Helen Hayes, and a couple of local councillors at the behest of RNIB tenants to provide new homes to promote independent living for its Blind and Partially Sighted residents"     Seems like a very sensible and necessary proposal to me.

      Is this the home for the blind and partially sighted at the south end of Underhill?

      Parking in Herne Hill

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      Sorry, yes, you can park but it's unlikely you will find a space. I meant to say 'you can't park with any certainty' - and if you go past Stradella Road getting back to where you can park is a bit of a bind.
