@Sue I don't know if she took over the pub..it does'nt ring any bells but I'm in contact with her so I'll try and remember to ask.

Rose who used to run Grace and Favour has a wonderful shop called Butlers Emporium on george Street in Hastings You'll find it on instagram as butlersemporium3

I have fond memories of Govinda's I used to go there back in the 90's (maybe earlier) for an affordable tasty lunch..I was wondering if its still around. Now I have to make a point of going there. Does anyone else remember a really affordable basement cafe run by the church in a street off of Golden Square? parallel to Regent Street? I also used to love the Vegetarian cafe on Neal Street in the basement (Neal Street Cafe?) and there was an inczredible inexpensive authentic Japanese resturant I use to go to with my Japanese friends (who introduced me to it) tucked away behind Long Acre where that brown brick modern building ('modern' I think it went up in the 90's!) now stands that fronts Long Acre and Neal Street..I think it was called Asakasa or something?

Perry Bamonte from The Cure.. Just 65 years old.

I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.

As @Angelina says, We Choose Medivet LL Over the likes of 'Snoots' because We have an incredible Vet there who has actually correctly diagonsed what is wrong with our Elderly cat on two occasions before the blood test results even came back and because being part of a chain when he suddenly became seriously unwell we were able to go their Camberwell Emergency 24 hour Vet.

I'm a bit of an architecture geek and I must confess I find it one of the most gimmicky ugly redesigns I've seen in a while. I'm always open to quirky but this is just not nice in any way shape or form.

Yes The lease ran out on the shop. So chi chi ra ra will only be online or at the various fairs. It says on her instagram

I don't know if he does newborns but I highly reccomend Will Westwood at Goose Green Clinic I've tried many Osteopaths locally and in Central London over the years and he Is now my 1st choice.... Highly qualified, and very gentle with good advice and aftercare.

I watched that the other day..what suprised me was how normal it was to smoke at work. It was a fab documentary I really enjoyed it!

I assumed they were somehow connected to or or supporters of Reform..this assumption is based on the fact when confronted by two of their collectors at Marylebone Station early one morning (around 7.30am) in the summer and I refused to donate one of them said "Don't you care about Army Veterans? Are you a Muslim? Don't you care about England?" I told them to F**k Off I may be old I may be small but I won't stand for Racism or Biggotry in any form. The whole term 'Blighty' smacks of Reform and flag waving racists

Perhaps Post on SE23.com and the Sydenham forum too.

This is awful..I'm so sorry to hear about your poor Pup. And I totally agree its downright ignorant of owners to let dogs with known behavioral issues and agression towards other dogs (or their owners) to walk the dogs off lead. I'm really upset and angry about this.

The organisers must have spent a fortune on the display..imagine how p**s*d off they must have been!!!! Blink and you missed it kind of thing

@SingingWilks yes! that makes sense Thank you
