How about email bombing them every day demanding an update on what's going on (I've already started)? There's a facebook and twitter link on their website - I feel a few hundred negative messages coming on. http://www.purelake.co.uk/projects.php?project_type=85&project_id=62 Is flyposting on the...

I'll get in touch with Kay Burley and Nicholas Witchell. They seem to be experts at reporting absolutely nothing happening for loooong periods of time.

Waitrose would be amazing, it's a shame we don't have one closeby! [ Post made via Mobile Device ] http://sydenham.org.uk/mobile.png Obviously the type of resident in the area doesn't appeal to Waitrose and vice versa. If a brand of supermarket is so important in your life why not either shop with ...

Now if The Windmiil was turned into a pub such as EDT then it would welcome a better clientele also make our area better & more affluent. That is why I would rather a Sainsburys or Waitrose there then the current pub. [ Post made via Mobile Device ] http://sydenham.org.uk/mobile.png I really fi...

The campaign went well then?

Maybe taking a wrecking ball to their HQ and taking their roof off might get their attention.

But hardly surprising. Judging by the way developers left it to rot with the roof off probably in the hope that it would fall down of it's own accord I don't think there was any serious intention of rebuilding it the first place.

Why does it take so long to finish the pub. Either finish it promptly or pull it down. Please do not leave it as it is. I don't think they give a toss. They've made their money. Call me cynical but maybe they believe if they leave it as it is for long enough people will start thinking the latter an...

So why sign up to a Sydenham site to ask for one somewhere else??!

My vote's Brisbane by the way.

I know what you mean about kids in pubs - one of my pet hates. M&S in Penge do let them in but they're restricted to the back part of the pub and outside - if you want to get away from the little darlings it's best to stay near the front. The last time I ventured into the Bridge House it was mid...

12 quid for a pub burger without meat in a place where you get splinters in your backside from flytipped chairs? Who falls for these sort of prices? Obviously they've got money to burn and the worst recession in memory doesn't affect them. AND a tip expected/taken without any choice? Sod that, it's ...

Actually, I lied. I'm Spartacus.

Coming home knackered after a night shift I found a mobile phone on the wall outside my place. Rather than going to bed I charged the phone up but couldn't ring or text any of the numbers as there was no credit left. I did a bit of detective work by googling one of the contacts (an organisation rath...

Now THAT is offensive!!

Mary, there's no need to apologise, I didn't take offence. Annie, please don't jump down my throat. I was not trying to antagonise, I was merely pointing out that the term is not a 'fits all' one. I'm not going to argue the point with you. [ Post made via Mobile Device ] http://sydenham.org.uk/mobil...

My parents' religion is irrelevant. I was never christened/baptised/forced into any religious fold, therefore I don't have and never have had a Christian name.

I prefer formality, hence the title. I am an atheist therefore I have a forename. Andy.

I don't believe mck is your surname so I refuse to acknowledge any future posts. And yes, Sheen IS my surname.
