Hi guys, I know this has been posted before but Herne Hill Velodrome is hosting the inaugural South London Grand Prix tonight with world class riders. There are many riders racing today and tomorrow who will be at the World Championships representing their country in a couple of weeks. The added bit is tonight, at 6pm, the Velodrome will be presenting Jim Love, one of the few 1948 Olympian cyclists who rode at HHV, with a special momento. Jim and special guests will be unveiling an Olympic plaque to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the Velodrome being used for the London Olympics. 

There is food, drink and a very special atmosphere. Also youth riding at 5pm. Hopefully it will be a fun couple of evenings with racing from 3pm. Ticket info on the link.

    • We are sadly saddled with the three stooges till July 2029 because they have such a far reaching majority, that is the problem when you give a party that level of support.  The ship was being turned around by the last Administration and given all their faults, errors, misdemeanours its not surprising that that got and probably deservedly so out of Office.  But if what has just happened over the past 100+ days since the new Administration took power, we are in for a very bumpy ride and peoples lives will ALL be affected. They say they champion the poor, well all they've done so far by taking away the winter fuel allowance (not eligible for it) and increasing employers national insurance, as sure as eggs is eggs, prices will increase and that hits everyone in the pocket, including the poorest in society. You can only shake the money tree so often, after which time it's Empty. What that means is the cost of providing benefits increases, where does the money then come from.  To then take on the farmers who feed part of the economy is utter madness, because if they blockade food supplies then people will go hungry, not necessarily starve. You don't shoot the hand that feeds you.  Their is enough written about the three stooges, Starmer, Reeves and Rayner, I have no idea if they are supposed "communists", but what I have seen is that free speech is being eroded, that can never be good for a democracy, where people are scared to speak out.  How does all this change, the people will eventually have had enough and rise up against the Govt. It has to happen eventually. Even is Starmer went you are left with Reeves and Rayner. Personally O don't trust either, it will be more of "do as I say, not as I do".  
    • Thanks for the invite, although most people will be at work or at school. It's a Monday morning...

    • I believe that Crown Post Offices are normally owned by the Post Office, and are frequently in valuable high street sites, so I would not be surprised if their sale value (or rentals to be derived if not sold) would be enticing, particularly for those offices running at slim or no profit margins. Happy to be proven wrong, of course.
