There surely must be a way to make the bins foxproof whilst still allowing for bags to be put into them. Some kind of latch which couldn't be opened by fox paws? I suppose they would just get vandalised 🙄 -
I stopped going to the EDT when I was meeting a friend there one afternoon last year. The place was empty except for me, and the bar staff suddenly put on awful music, really loudly. When I politely asked them to turn it down a bit, they turned it up. I took my pint outside, and when my friend arrived we went to the Palmerston instead. Haven't been back there since. Well, can't now anyway 🤣 When I said it was iconic, the emphasis was on the "was". It was once genuinely quirky, before they started messing about with it. It was different from the other ED pubs at the time, which were - without any exception I can think of except maybe the Castle - awful. The Castle later went through a sticky patch when they kicked out the lovely manager who had been there for years and brought in someone who wasn't exactly welcoming. We put some stuff on the juke box, which after a couple of tracks was turned off from the bar (with our money in it) and the worst kind (my opinion only, obviously) of sentimental Irish music put on instead, at full volume. How to win friends and ensure your customers come back 🤣 Luckily the manager changed again, and all the staff there now are lovely ❤️ I really hope the Castle doesn't get gentrified (or the Blythe, but that's not in East Dulwich, so less at risk, I would have thought?)

I am sure this is part of the plan they had for this part of Peckham back when they were going LTN mad and where they prioritised the input from the cycle lobby over the input from the emergency services. Does anyone have the old pdf from then as that will probably show how far these plans will end-up extending? I reckon details will be somewhere on the old LTN thread from back in the day - was it what they referred to as Phase 3? They are clearly coming back to have a second go after they failed to get it in back in 2020/2021. -
Thanks to EDF for recommending Peter. Peter came and fixed some bad tiling work done by others. Peter’s work was top craftsmanship. We finally have a shower enclosure that doesn’t leak and a neat finish.
