I'm enjoying life watching ploughing matches between farmers and having no public transport. when you get 4 buses a day in/out of the village, Judge Rinder has limited competition. The JR case was about monies owed between ex-partners, but the issue of the Zanzibar pricked my ears. I guess the man a...

This might be old news. ADMIN can deal appropriately, Was watching Judge Rinder at around 7am this morming (you can google the episode). There were a middle-aged man and woman in conflict over monies owed to the woman. (the details are sketchy, as i wasn't watching properly, but I am relaying what I...

Really, really sorry, but I'm going to have to drop out for the 18th, tomorrow. Got a lot of work on my plate at the moment, and I have deadlines to meet.
Sorry everyone. Hope you have a great time

Great to hear you’re in Phil, and Ben as well. Fingers crossed for Saul. I’m wondering if one pitch will be enough...

I might be Size XXXXL, but needing 2 pitches for the 18 May is a tad insulting

where do I find an XXXXXXL t-shirt and shorts combo ? :D In for 10 minutes of playing in goal for 18 May. Beer and curry still in the balance as to domestic situation. check out local schools to see if they rent out 5-a-side pitches in evenings, in order to get revenue. Kangley Bridge leisure centre...

AliB in for the 18 May

Thank you for the kind invite, which I feel compelled to accept. Such a really gratifying gesture. I'll need to dig out some XXXL shorts and T-shirt. and bring an oxygen mask.
Should be able to make a beer or 2, but not sure about laters, as I have commitments at home.

Around 2005, I used to shop at Sainsburys , in Forest Hill. Outside was a regular vendor, with ID and jacket. His name was Terry, and he was even featured in one of the issues. Terry disappeared a few months later, and was replaced by a, seemingly, Eastern European lady. She had no ID or jacket. Eve...

Have a table booked for me and some friends at the end of March. ( I moved to East Sussex 6 years ago). The Greyhound has had very good reviews, as has the owners other pubs.
I am confident it will prove a worthwhile visit to south east London, and my old stomping ground.

Remedial works to leave a gasworks fit for residential aren't cheap. But prices are getting more competitive and there are Government/Council monies available to bring land back into use. Any business is in effect fighting over the consumer £1 in their pocket. That £1 can only go to one shop. At the...

The petition calls for the gasholders to be listed and the land around the them to be turned into residential units instead of retail space. I wouldn't have thought any of the land on the site of the old gasworks will be fit for normal residential use for thousands of years . Not true really. You c...

I am amazed this is still going, having moved to Sussex 5 years ago. I applaud the various Ringmasters who have kept, and indeed increased, the participant numbers. It would be unseemly of me to re-emerge for the Christmas mash-up (which is a damn fine way to spend any excess monies), but I hope to ...

Great photo. Thanks for sharing.

Being a crook, implies illegal activity. I would suggest Sir Steve has probably used his influence to gain monies for a charidee he is a trustee of. The charidee would be hopeful that he'd use his contacts in such a way. I would suggest the question should be: "Are all politicians as bent as a five ...

I am not an expert in noise pollution, but have some knowledge. Without boring people to sleep (including myself), Council's very often utilise BS4142 as a system for defining a noise nuisance. (google it) http://www.noisenet.org/noise_enviro_industrial.htm It is quite a convoluted process which gen...

This is outside my comfort zone. But when the fire started at the boarded-up Greyhound, it was under ownership of Milford Homes. (correct me if I'm wrong) The plot was sold to Purelake, very soon afterwards, and the current development approved. (albeit after unauthorised demolition) It would seem t...

The chap who ran 'Doorz', had an arrangement with the owner of the property, which seems to have come to an end.

To say 'Doorz' had Mixed-Reviews, would be a compliment. Of the handful of people I met who had dealings with them, none of them were satisfied with the work or (lack of) communication.

Lee, I'm fine cheers, thanks for asking. Rural areas have their own problems, such as how do you rescue a cow that has fallen into the local river ? I'm sure the Purelake and Lewisham have done their homework regarding traffic, and I don't wish to raise concerns which may be unfounded. But,..you can...

I left Sydenham about 3 years ago, but felt compelled to comment after Parker1970's latest photograph. I am employed in the Development Sector, and have a good background knowledge of all that has happened to The Greyhound since it closed. I was aghast when the Greyhound was knocked down. But after ...
