Yeah - Union Jack ones.

Well as my better half is out with the girls tonight and it's such a nice day out there I may finally venture along for a bit (have to work tomorrow) and put a few faces to names, I'll be the lost looking one trying to figure out which group is forumites...
I had a good night, glad I finally decided to come along and meet a few of the people behind the keyboards, I'm sure I'll be along for more drinks in the future (and I owe Piers a pint after I ashamedly was unable to down the one he brought me before closing time.....although judging by my slightly off colour start to work today that may have been a good thing).

I was indeed, although I did discover unknown to me that there was a previous EDKiwi (with a different spelling?) who a few people had assumed I was.

I think we may have said hello in passing, I was going to come over and introduce myself properly but the next think I knew it was closing time and only a few of us were left.

    • Vispring, I'm not a poet so I don't have enough vocabulary to gush about it, best money I ever spent. Open your wallet, they say you spend a third of your life rafting on it (probably more these days with Netflix).
    • Ah wonderful, I'll pop in and see him One more day and then the fundraiser will close. Just £70 needed to get to £1,500. Thank you all for your generosity and support. Private messages have been lovely. 
    • Time will tell if H&B are loved or loathed, the footfall they get and generate will determine if they stay or go. That's the nature of businesses, they come and go dependant on usage. Examples are M&S, Poundland Local, Co-op, Superdrug, Mons, the chain restaurant/takeaways, the chain Estate Agents, Toolstation, Screwfix to name a few.  As much as people would like to see Lordship Lane remain a high street of independents, it is becoming clear that due to Landlords hiking rents, some are unable to survive. This leaves empty units which some of the chain brands considering it to be worth a "punt". I'd have thought that businesses operating in shops is a better alternative than a high street with multiple empty units, but what do I know, they are just thoughts on the subject.   Take a look at Croydon and Bromley where what were once thriving high streets are in decline.  I have to say that some of the prices charged by the independents are eye watering, and incomes i'd have thought have to be substantial to afford their prices. Personally I'd love a Lidl to open on what was the site of the Harvester, but I guess that would get shouted down, oh the thought of Lidl in Dulwich. Whatever next. 
    • IMO, Sealy, the best nights sleep you'll ever have.
