Thanks EDDW and Ruffers.

Hello, has anyone been to this new restaurant? Is it any good? Wedding anniversary coming up and as usual it is me who has to plan where to go! As we have to pay for a babysitter and their cab home we can't really push the boat out too much price wise. I would be really grateful if anyone could let me know what this place is like as I love Italian food and we spent part of our honeymoon in Italy. Many thanks.

Whoops. Just read my last post back and that sounded really bad - I had just been reading the post from the piano teacher who hates ED Mums and Mums to be. There are lots of very nice sounding people too. I hope I've not offended anyone.

Yes, I live that end of LL too and agree it could do with a bit of a boost. We do have good old Badger Bakery up here though. Even if we did get an M&S I could not stop going to Badger Bakery! I agree though with Sallyc, surely M&S would have to consult with the locals if they were going to build there - maybe they will have an underground car park! Will look up the old thread. I am new to the forum but must admit I am hooked. There are alot of 'haters' round here!!! LOL. Goodliz

Hello. Does anyone know what is being built on Lordship Lane more or less opposite the big Plough DIY shop? It used to be a car parts place. It has been completely gutted. I asked in the newsagents (the one with the post office at the back) next door to where they are building and they said they had heard a rumour it was going to be a Tesco - bad news for the newsagent. Does anyone know what it will be yet? Thanks.

If you want to sell your home and avoid slimey estate agents I would highly recommend using Property Broker. We used them to sell our flat a few years ago. They charge a one off fee (?112 back then) and come round and take lots of pictures and put a board up. You write the description. Potential buyers get to see the pics and description online. What is great is that the potential buyers contact you direct so they can ask lots of questions etc. This means you do not get loads of people traipsing round your house/ flat just because the agents have brought them there even if the property is not what they are looking for - if you know what I mean. There is no commission to pay. Once you get an offer you do the rest yourself just as you would if you were selling through an agent. Their website is www.property-broker.co.uk Sorry this is not a rant about Foxtons - I cannot stand agents so do my best to avoid them! I have seen the Putney office though and yes, it does look very posh from the outside!
