Yeah? I think it's just boring and stalker-ish and slightly creepy. So we'll have to disagree on that.

Enough with the vendetta against Conways. It's really boring and gives every appearance of being an obsessive, creepy stalker. If you are an OCS, then fine. But if not, maybe want to give some thought to how you come across to others. Just saying!

What have betting shops and payday loan companies got to do with a supermarket wanting to extend its opening hours (and ONLY to extend the hours during which it can sell booze by ONE hour, not, repeat NOT, to offer 24/7 off-licence facilities)? Jeez, Louise ... talk about missing the point!

@SJ... Nope ... This is how the opening post reads, as at 0700, Saturday 9th March. The Coop has applied to extend it current alcohol license and apply for a new one to enable it to open 24/7. This is possible under the Licencesing Act 2003. This seems like a bad idea. It's one thing having a small corner shop open 24/7 which is likely ot just serve locals and the odd passing trade. We fear the Coop being open 24/7 will become a night time destination and have formally objected. But what do you think? If you think it's a good or bad idea please do tell council officials before the 27 March deadline. Email Licensing@southwark.gov.uk and cope me james.barber@southwark.gov.uk We don't want such a potentially big decision affecting East Dulwich Night Time Economy to be taken without as much local input as possible. Sounds pretty unambiguous to me and a misreading of the application, whether deliberate or not. I've edited my post above because, with hindsight, it was perhaps a tad cruel. So I'll stick to the main point. Seems to me JB has - deliberately or otherwise - misrepresented the application. As to whether JB works "a lot more" than I do, as you're willing to "bet" (FFS), then perhaps he needs to work "a lot more" on how he presents this (and other issues on which he evidently has a personal position) to the East Dulwich Forum.
