Foxtons on Lordship Lane soon to become a Poundland Local

Apologies for my pedantry but in the same way Dulwich Hamlet is singular, it’s The Dulwich Estate, just the one. Sorry again. -
still getting post from November!

geh replied to teddyboy23's topic in General ED Issues / Gossip
No independents are being threatened with the arrival of Poundland (replacing another chain Foxtons), and the increase in footfall will more than make up for any losses independents make. It’s competition, pure and simple. except when it comes to rent review time -
ate in there last night, and delighted to confirm its as superb as ever!

37 ED to Brixton, I used to use this all the time, can't face sitting on it now, and presumably when Herne Hill 'improvements' enacted it will be even slower. Two consequences, no spend directed to local Brixton Market, restaurants/bars, plus if going into town, more often or not get an uber - so that's not terrible good is it!

Labour flyer through the door (Goose Green Ward) this week, appreciate that its not the full manifesto but no mention of LTN's - not exactly conviction politics is it? Nothing from the other parties (any of them). Not sure who is the least bad...

In any other world taking money for a service when you have either no ability, or no intention of delivering that service is called fraud. So frustrating, and I have no confidence that anything currently in the sorting office will ever be delivered.

LTN?s definitely altering my transport habits. I now never get the 37 to Brixton to then get the tube, too congested, too painful, too slow. What I have done is to make a conscious decision to only purchase pre 40 year old vehicles that are classed as classics and exempt from Ulez and Congestion charge. Someone once said for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction!
