Brixton chitter-chatter and news Nov 2011

Looked like quite a nasty car crash at the lights at the bottom of Brixton Hill by St Matthews' church yesterday evening.

It looked like a car had come round the corner from Efra Rd far too quickly and got wrapped around the lights in the middle of the road.

On a seperate note I went to Cornercopia for dinner on Friday and it was excellent.
 
Was in town on Saturday night standing outside the ritzy.

Two girls who could possibly have been from Shoreditch stopped and one exclaimed 'Brixton is just SO up and coming these days, I am SO going to bring my camera next time'

I SO wanted Ed to be there :D

I like the giant conker at Brockwell Park, near Brixton Water Lane entrance.

The Park website says:
Giant Conker made by Dan Miles and donated to the park by Zia Trench

When conkers becomes an olympic sport, Brockwell's got the gold!
 
how often do you go to the pub then? two weeks in not a long time to give the pub a miss.
you could always go to another one if you're that desperate.
off licence is even cheaper though ;)
 
Wetherspoons do some great ales at a bargain £2.35 a pint.

The Old Empire they've got on at the moment is well worth it (5.7% abv).
 
If I didn't have to climb Denmark Hill to get to the spoons, I'd probably go all the time :D

Three times a week maybe. I know tons of people around Brixton from all sorts of backgrounds, and if you work freelance from home, it's good to get out and chew the fat after a long day.

The Albert is the friendliest pub I've ever known, so that's why I like going there. I'm not going to go to pubs I don't like or don't know anyone, but thankfulyl there's loads of alternatives in Brixton.

It's not such a big problem anyway - I rarely go out much in the week and we're DJing the Carter USM party at JAMM on Saturday so the Albert sized hole is being filled :)
 
Drinking more than a pint (or even just a pint) means I don't sleep properly and feel hungover the next day. For which reason I generally don't drink on schoolnights and confine it to weekend binge drinking.

I've always been jealous of people that can go to the pub several times a week and still function during the daytimes. Must be an expensive habit, mind.
 
Ambulance and paramedic up on the paved area outside the Ritzy just now, not sure what's going on. Also another ambulance parked outside the peri peri chicken place half way up the hill but that might just have been a lunch break.
