That sure seems cheap, and the outgoings are low too: Rent - £5,400 / annum, Rates – Nil.

Good for him, he's a nice lad.
Was in The Hand a week or so ago and was wondering what was happening to it, but didn't dare ask as I wasn't sure if was public knowledge or not.

I'd be interested to see if you could get a booze license... nice spot in the summer. The Hand is always rammed outside in the summer, luckily they let us bring food from anywhere inside, I wonder if that will continue with new owners... I think I ate more outside the Hand last summer than at home
I overdosed on Gallery chicken!

It's up for sale on the internet so I guess it can't be a private issue anymore.

Yeah, I see your point, but I think sometimes peope forget other people might be keeping an eye on them on the internet

I'd imagine most pubs nowadays are so desperate to keep custom, it would be a bit of a dim landlord who banned food from outside, unless he was selling food himself

The Hand has an industrial kitchen upstairs, dumb waiter etc. But food never worked there apparently. I lived above the Hand for a while a year or so ago.

I had to send the pics to the agent selling it
The landlord of The Hand is on Urban. /waves

It seems a guy got hit by a bus. I've never seen so many blue flashing lights, it was a strange end to my evening.

a massive old school traditional funeral procession has just gone past my house, complete with New Orleans style jazz band, dummers and about 50 mourners dressed in black.
i would have taken a photo but I didn't think it was appropriate.

What way was it headed? I think those type of funerals are a great send-off

i'm gonna stick with my conviction that it's gonna be a waitrose. i was told that it was and i believed it.
I thought Brixton had a Primark already

Yes it was beautiful. I love it when it's almost dark at street level yet the sky is still blue, pink and orange. Like a Magritte painting.

Towards Camberwell I think...from around Myatts Fields.

Hendo checked with their press office. They say no. I'd say it's more likely to become a Primark.

Wasn't that just DJ banter at the Rest Is Noise? Waitrose was probably the first upmarket chain that came into his head.
My prediction is that the caffeine capitalists of Seattle have been reading Urban 75 and have will have discovered there is a nice for a coffee shop with room for baby buggies and plentiful nappy-changing facilities. Yep, the Starbucks superstore.

With cupcakes! And frozen yoghurt!
And a Starbucks mono-rail connecting the two stores.
And a Starbucks monopoly on the billboards
And a Starbucks branded airship tied above each store
