Niche interest admittedly, but rumour has it that Sean O'Hagan's an SE22 man.  Does anyone know if  he was ever (or still is)  a local man; and and if so, if he'd accept a pint from a local admirer?  Here's hoping!  Nothing ventured .....

the recent (excellent) BBC documentary on Microdisney (still on iPlayer) has several interviews with Sean and Cathal just before Cathal's passing - Them walking through Peckham Rye etc. Cathal did used to live in SE22 but moved out towards Limehouse years and years back but I believe Sean is still local yes

Yes, Sean is definitely still local. And the High Llamas have two London gigs later this month (Cafe Oto and The Lexington) but both are sold out. Great band, as were Microdisney. You might like to follow Brian O'Neill's Dimple Discs record label, which has released a lot of Cathal Coughlan's music, and Brian puts on great gigs locally: https://dimplediscs.bandcamp.com/

    • Hi all,   We’re looking at getting a real christmas tree this year - are there any recommendations on where to get one locally (ideally walking distance from lordship lane)?   Many thanks

    • On a slight tangent, I watched a few mins of Question Time lat night.  I was surprised when the 'libertarian' journo, who champions free speech etc, criticised the report for not focusing on the necessity for a lockdown, which in her view was unnecessary and did untold harm to our economy and sectors of the population.  It wasn't that she had these views (as a few prominent but deluded people do), but that a sizeable number of the audience agreed with her. The report found that social distancing should have been brought in weeks earlier, and if this had been done then the lockdown would not have been so severe, and even unnecessary. However as we got the point when the NHS would have collapsed without significant action I expect the vast majority of us understood the necessity. Oh and she doesn't believe in net zero either.
