Not nasty enough to use the N word however - point that out :)

My heart was racing watching that. Really really well done in terms of drama and intensity. People are saying it went too far, but grim as it was, I thought it was spot on.


SPOILERS AHEAD!!!

Got that right, but it was a cruel tease, making you think that Glenn (who got the bat in the comics) might be spared. Apparently the actor (Steven Yeun) said he didn't want that moment going to anyone else.


One of the most interesting things going forward will be the fate of Daryl. He's not in the comics, so no clues there.


Speaking of the comics, I've finally started reading them, but I'm only at issue 10, all this Negan stuff is around issue 100. I've not even made the end of season 1 yet. But there are big differences. Carol is NOTHING like her TV counterpart. And Shane (main antagonist of seasons 1 & 2) wasn't around for long at all in the books. And no Merle & Daryl. Plus Carl is way younger (7 at the start).

I was only able to catch up yesterday. Also enjoyed Talking Dead's extended show and highlight reels. How young Steven Yeun looked in series 1!


I'm very sad to see him go - great character, the heart of the group. But they have gone a long time without the death of a really central character (Beth, or all the way back to Hershel?), and Glenn does die in the comics.


Excited to see where they go this season, it's certainly changed the group's world. Never read the comics so everything is a surprise.

Thought the acting was superb. From everyone, even those that didn't say much.


They actually filmed the deaths of all of them so as to keep the outcome secret. Maggie's clubbing (and Glenn's response to seeing it) has been leaked, but I don't really fancy watching that.


Anyway, it's certainly spiced things up a bit, as I thought the last season was getting slightly stale.

      Great news! Peckham Rye station to reclaim its public square by next year!

      By rollflick · Posted

      Labour's latest Rye Lane Ward newsletter is now saying that demolition in the square will start this summer and that the wider station upgrade is expected to be signed off this year - as explained above, sadly wrong on both counts. It describes the renovation of adjacent buildings on Blenheim Grove as "successful", despite having lain empty for a couple of years, longer than the actual renovation works, before saying "the Council is hopeful [it] will see its first new occupants move in to this year". Cue desperate attempt to get at least one in before end of financial year? As for the other topic, in "November 2023, faced with a huge increase in graffiti across the borough, Labour-run Southwark council took action". Nice turn of phrase eh? Rather, after community pressure regarding years of inaction by said Labour-run council, it's finally started to do a little bit, a little late. Surely there would be more chance of resolving issues if our council could for once be part of an honest, informed discussion?

      Great Local Pest Control – Roger from Critter Solutions SE22 Area

      By Jonathan H · Posted

      Just wanted to recommend Roger from Critter Solutions Pest Control if anyone’s dealing with mice or other unwanted guests. We had a sudden issue with mice in our home's kitchen and after calling around, these guys were by far the most responsive and professional. Roger arrived on time, was really friendly, and took the time to explain what he was doing and why. He did a full inspection and sealed up some access points we hadn’t even noticed. Since his treatment we haven’t seen or heard anything since. What I appreciated most was that it didn’t feel like a rushed job or a hard sell – just honest advice and thorough work. All backed with a guarantee.  Would definitely use them again (hopefully won’t need to!) and thought I’d share in case anyone local is looking.
