Join us tonight for the launch of local author Guy Ware's newest book 'The Faculty of Indifference'!

Escape the rain and warm up with some drinks and book-talk at Rye Books East Dulwich at 7pm tonight! The author will be joining us for a talk and a Q&A for the release of his latest novel 'The Faculty of Indifference'.

The book follows protagonist Robert Exley, who works for The Faculty making sure "that nothing ever happens" and who writes in his encrypted journal to make sense of the world around him. When he finds a man in an orange jumpsuit shackled deep beneath The Faculty's offices, everything he thinks he knows changes. Infused with Guy Ware's unique dark humour the book takes on the tragedies of the everyday: boredom, suicide and love through the unique voice of the diarist.

"Ware asks how we can hold onto ourselves when what happens without is so random and fraught with possibility" - Stuard Evers

  Ask the surgeries. Most dentists I have been to were child friendly. The only one was the school dentist who'd come in a caravan and do lots of unnecessary work, which I now suffer from.

  Round-robin letter received this week regarding this. Main points are that the number of new homes is being reduced from 877 to 867. OK, not much change there, but.... "A reduction in the number of affordable homes from 270 (35% by habitable room) to 77 (12% by habitable room)" That's a 72% reduction in the number of affordable homes. I don't know a lot about this kind of thing, but it seems that just 77 affordable homes in a development of 867 is a massive pee-take in an area where a 1-bed flat is £400K+ if it isn't "affordable." If you're interested, the application can be viewed at https://planning.southwark.gov.uk/online-applications/ ref 24/AP/2074 and there's a lot of objections to the reduction in affordable homes. The drop-in sessions are Weds 26th Feb (Peckham Library) and Mon 3rd March (All Saints Church) at 3pm. Full details attached. 24_AP_2074-FILE_COPY_-_NEIGHBOUR_NOTIFICATION_LIST-4005193.pdf
- VW badge theft in ED - advice on next steps

  I noticed 4 gone in a short stretch of Bellenden Road alone this weekend. I had no idea it was to do with the tech and thought that it was a retro Beastie Boys thing. Showing my age. Sorry I can only find a Facebook link if you are too young to remember this: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=578367166664170 Totally agree that it's a bad design flaw, and I bet the actual cost of the parts to VW is minimal so they could easily cough up some of the replacement costs. It's depressing that someone can go along a street popping these things off cars with very little worry about being prosecuted.
