Brixton chitter chatter and news and updates (Feb-Aug 2011)

[ajdown]

It's very big. And a few days late.

Sounds a bit like me then.

The 'Brixton Wall' has failed miserably to catch on.

I'm proud of Brixton for scoffing at such corny sentiment.

 

[Badgers]

The Clapham walls were fairly full this morning

Like Clapham?

It's very big. And a few days late. And looking a bit copy catish, too.

Exactly what I was thinking, and Brixton's original enough to get its own ideas.

What next, a Brixton Tea Party?

Could be a decent turn out on Thursday though!

Well, I'd like to have been at the Manchester Free Trade Hall in May 1966 and June 1976, but there we are.

 

[quimcunx]

Yes.

[gabi]

anyone know why they've put the cordon up again? bit over this shit. brix road totally closed at the mo. and lights.... oh the lights.

 

[Mrs Magpie]

Seems it's Footlocker again. So, less 'One Love' and more 'Catch a Fire'.

 

[ajdown]

Was still eminating visible smoke this morning just before 8am. Wonder if the 'peace wall' is now 'peace charcoal'?

So two weeks on, we're still reaping the legacy of these fucking looting doofuses.

i almost wish the little toerags had done the job properly in the first place and lifted all the stock. the stench of burning rubber permeating brixton this morning was rank.

 

[quimcunx]

Silver lining and all that eh?
