Sydenham rogue landlords

If you're aware of any please get them reported to the council so they can investigate.

Re: Pub?

They're obviously not cans but 5L mini casks which contain a live yeast and have a shelf life of 2-7 weeks (the clue, if you're unable to identify the difference between a can and a mini cask, might have been the card to centre top right of the photo bearing the prices for ' Mini Casks ').

Appeal for witnesses

A long shot I know, but was anybody in the vicinity of Westwood Hill and Crystal Palace Park Road junction at about 13:45 today? A head on collision occurred between a black Toyota Prius people carrier and a silver Mercedes Benz C-Class saloon. Please PM me if you happened to see this accident happen.
