Have had the same experience at the Flying Pig. I think the music volume is purely for the benefit of the barstaff and not the customers.

I think most people feel rents have increased in the last 6 years. I'd say the 2011 rents shown above look a bit on the high side

Rangers manager sacked. 7m in charge.

Cant be the case this time - the article had photos of people working in Mons, which is new, and what I believe to be current staff in Palmerston and Moxons (with the cinema clearly visible in the background) https://www.homesandproperty.co.uk/area-guides/southwark-borough/east-dulwich/living-in-east-dulwich-area-guide-to-homes-schools-and-transport-links-a114876.html#gallery such a bunch of sceptics I have never seen the like of.... ;)

A WFH neighbour is a very handy thing.

I don't think I can make this one chaps.

Big Sam to Rangers is the rumour. Boy do they need something.

Just about everything DIY related is on Youtube now. https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=car+scratch+repair

Mobile units can come to your home to tidy up paintwork quite cheaply I have heard. I think they give you a free quote - so nothing to lose https://www.chipsaway.co.uk/services/paintwork-scratches/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMI8cabrtGJ1wIVy1qGCh2RTQzoEAAYASAAEgJ5WfD_BwE

no experience I'm afraid - but is freeholder Dulwich Estate or an individual?

If I were them I'd choose Allardyce over Moyes if that was the choice - but Sean Dyche is favourite - he will be fav for most mid ranking premiership clubs coming available so he may wait, or at least negotiate guaranteed transfer kitty from Everton to make it attractive

I'm sorry I missed you at lunch at the weekend Bob. You have such good ideas.

1) Brilliant post ianr 2) what have you done with all the money Hazel?

yes - and it's advertised as a SF rather than a Food Store. So I'm guessing that means its a more restricted offering than the LL one.

Bring on the Germans!

It takes ma a month to read a novel, never mind write one. But a great idea - and good luck

Couldn't agree more - all that space and a 2 bed with no bath - Kevin Mcwhatever couldn't have hinted any more strongly. Agree they may get their money back if its sold for flats - but its the fact that it had potential for flats that forced the price of the shell up to ?950k in the first place. after that it was a loss making venture. and as for the 280k - I always wonder if Grand Designs somehow get them trade prices - although they did have to do some work themselves to meet budget - it was I think a case of massive overspend on the plot and underspend on the design/build. its nothing like what they said they intended it to be in terms of a Parisian off road hidden gem. The back right hand space where they knocked out the roof and left an exposed wall was one of the only remaining original industrial features - and many a ED side return has a similar carve out space. The corrugated iron doors at the front - what on earth were they thinking. of course overall very brave - I couldn't risk it myself - but disappointing. I want really convinced they were happy in the end.

I came to visit a friend in ED in 1999 and we went for a beer in the foresters. it was absolutely fine. I then moved to ED in 2001, and it was already a bit rougher than I remembered - by the time it closed it was a dive. The Bishop is my least favourite pub in ED. its most recent refurb is horrible.

Combative win for ROI last night. Edge of the seat stuff. Wales are the better team, and are unfortunate not to be going to the finals, Bale misses out unfortunately, like Giggs and others before him.
