I agree about the craft shoppy workshop fabric place. I asked the owner of this place http://www.themakelounge.com/ to open a branch here but she wasn't v interested. Imagine a Make Lounge in the old Job Centre premises. Or in the Foxtons premises for that matter

Dalston / Stoke Newington / Brixton / Peckham / Whitechapel for starters?


Less hand-wringing.

I'd love a proper New York style "deli" serving cracking American style breakfasts, including eggs 'over easy', waffles and pancakes, along with fresh OJ and good coffee. Needs to be have bustling kind of vibe with good tunes, clanging plates, and general busy-ness. It would need to be staffed with proper hospitality professionals who are super-efficient, even if a little gruff sometimes. Would need a long bar where you can watch them prepare drinks while you have your coffee (alone and child-free) and read the paper. At lunchtime they would do oversized sandwiches with pastrami, onions on sourdough, maybe with a touch of mayo.


I have spent some time thinking about this.

Now THAT is something I would get excited about!


Ahhhhhh, a proper gleaming short stack with maple syrup for breakfast. For lunch, corned beef on rye with mustard and saurcraut, a giant dill and garlic pickle on the side. A big frosty glass of iced tea...... oh what the hell make it a Long Island iced tea.......


Keep talkin' quickbrownfox!

    • They are. We are back to the same construction racket 8am-8pm every day for the whole of this week. The wall is one of the last things to come down, probably on Saturday. Then we can see how much of a mess they've made, especially the quantity of non-biodegradeable litter trampled into the earth. GALA 2025 - Production Schedule.pdf
    • The irony of the name of this festival...
    • @Rockets be a sweety and stop using the large font, it's annoying and I expect most can comprehend. Still not sure how this festival affects you.  Or is it a case that you just like taking on causes 
    • It is intimidating looking through the book sections now.  I sometimes wonder if they're stocking bookshops' remainders. OTOH, when I put  some books out in a cardboard box for taking, it was  encouraging to see that a fair proportion of those taken were aged hardbacks.
