Brixton chitter chatter, part 2

[teuchter]

Apparently Brixton Bar & Grill is cordened off with police tape. I woke up in the early hours suddenly as I thought I dreamed a gunshot. I hope it was just a dream

Oh dear - I hope it was a dream too.

But I do know there have been some concerns about that place recently.

 

[Badgers]

Not good for the BBAG, I have never been in there to date.

did the lawyers driveby an accountants party? was their some territory encroachment?


anyway, I was going to BBG on Sunday for a friends who is running this attached image. Pretty cool initiative, esp in the Market

Editor - if you allow it, maybe promote it? its theatre and I think you like that?

This is funny.

I was in BBG recently at the end of a very messy night (4-5am). Open fake-E dealing (with.. err.. my mate) but friendly enough atmosphere. Hope nothing bad happened.

I shall buy a copy, and hope someday to humbly follow in your intrepid footsteps.

Currently I am trying to organise an expedition to the corner shop. This means walking uowards of a quarter of a mile, and crossing Brixton Road. So far I have checked that I have all the relevant equipment available.

Remember satellite phone/gps equipment etc.

Sturdy walking boots, windproof jacket, goggles and skis are probably a good idea as well

waterproof matches and 2 days compressed field rations

5 days compressed field rations is probably better. This is an arduous trek after all, especially if going up the Hill

 

[Crispy]

just be sure to give the ranger's office a copy of your itinerary before you leave

 

[teuchter]

Don't forget your avalanche beacon.

I never leave home without them. Also a basic first aid kit, and a team of local porters.

 

[teuchter]

And midge repellent. Never go out without midge repellent.

[pboi]

Brixton Bar and Grill closed due to Flood damage, not a shooting.

WOO

I hope you don't take the credit if they get there before you do?

Is Negril any good? The punter reviews I've found either say it's dreadful or brilliant.

 

[ajdown]

Iroko Bar in darkness and boarded up. I'd say they've definitely disappeared.

I've only ever had good food there. Their coconut chilli prawns are utterly delicious

Despite living a stone's throw away I've never actually eaten there. However, housemates and various other folk I know have, and the consensus seems to be that it's good.

 

[boohoo]

Food I've had there has been good. I think there was a bean curry thing which was very good. They do take away now!

 

[paolo]

Must give it a try then I think. Wish they'd put a menu in the window though.

 

[Mrs Magpie]

Don't they have to by law? Or do they see themselves more as a caff?

I liked it, only been the once, but it was nice enough.

It's got to be better than having to stay at home and make conversation with your landlady, at any rate.

They've just done a refurb. Maybe they haven't gotten round to it yet.

Who's Paulo's landlady? Is she a right bitch then?

She tends to ramble on about weird stuff, and is a bit short-tempered, I've heard.
