Brixton chitter chatter, part 2

Police and ambulances outside the block on Coldharbour and what looks like one of those fucking annoying mini bikes in a zillion pieces on the pavement....
 
I just cycled past..I made a threat about it (sorry!) I wasn't aware of the chitter chatter!
I saw a bike on the ground, but to me it looked like a proper motorbike rather than a moped type...but I'm short sighted so I might be wrong.
Hope everyone involved is ok though.

I don't think Editor meant a moped. I'm guessing one of those kid's bikes that grown men race about whilst their knees come up to their ears

I'm probably wrong though
 
If anyone is in need of a medical bloodbank refrigerator, there is one for the taking on the street, at the bottom end of Arodene Rd.

Outside the "Christian Centre".

:hmm:

Oh man, I wish I'd seen this post in time. That would have been such a cool thing to have in your kitchen.
 
watching the snifferdogs outside the tube and along the High St just now made me realise how law abiding the majority of the population are. Or maybe they just take care when the dogs are about.
 
I live at the top of Brixton Hill.

I've just had a leaflet through my door telling me about a new doctor's surgery I could register with, and all the services they're offering.

The only problem being that the surgery is in Ladbroke Grove, NW10.

I have no idea.
 
I miss a lot of things about the UK and London and Brixton, but reading this thread has made me really want to ride the new tube trains and that's so sad I might have to hurt myself.
 
I saw a milk float in Brixton at 0750 this morning. I had no idea such things still existed in inner London :cool:

It is sad and you probably should find a hairshirt somewhere but comfort yourself with the knowledge that you probably wouldn't happenstance upon a new train 'til January or later anyway.


((crispy))
 
Was it David Cousins? He is our milkman. It may look very 1970s but is all done over the web now - clicky.

It didn't look like that float. It was a more traditional orange and white Unigate float, like this:

It was like going back to the 70s.
 
Yeah it's probably him - the Milk & More branding has been fairly recent and he hasn't had a respray.

I used to drive one of those! Actually it was a bit older - looked just like this:

The first 3 letters of the number plate were OHM. Had some wild times in it. Got it over on to two wheels at a Russian diplomats' rural retreat and 120 pints fell off. :facepalm:
 
I came past the Southside Bar at 6.15pm this evening and it was in complete darkness. Has it closed? :confused:
 
They'll have to lop some branches off and tilt it over 5 degrees or it just won't be right
