Yep - and the cowardly wankers can run off to the security of the estate in seconds. They should fit that underbridge with anti-teenage high pitched noises, CCTV galore, trapdoors and Tomahawk missiles, just to be sure.

Some lovely classical music methinks...:)
 
Oh dear. I was going to take the Surrey gardeners through that underpass and tell them how I used it daily without fear when I was living over that way.

I might as well cut to the chase and just mug them myself.

I think it's unlikely that Judge Dread style antics would be appropriate or helpful.

As a more practical measure, getting the info out really can help.

Stuff like the number of assailants, time of day, how they operated, rough descriptions, etc, etc all helps other folks keep safe in the area.

the one person I know that was affected actually praised the police response, which is a first for her.
 
The one way street that was Stockwell Avenue now has a contra flow for cyclists! Although I suspect you're meant to go up past the old pub, turn down Bellefields Road and then left onto Stockwell Avenue, rather than through the pedestrianised bit by the post office / euro smackhead.

:) were you asking after him on this thread? Or IRL?

He'd just been to the climate conference in Copenhagen and was full of beans. Apart from from the afore mentioned issue, he was was an exciting speaker.

But then it's led me making contact with Nick h- so, yay for lazy sterotypes! ;)

irl to another old mate. :)
 
Ladies and gentlemen, can I please have your attention. I've just been handed an urgent and horrifying news story. I need all of you, to stop what you're doing and listen. Cannonball!

Brixton in the sunshine...no better place in LDN.
 
Anyone know how long, and what they're doing, with the little area between Body Shop and Morley, opposite the tube? I used to find those low brick walls useful to have a sit down because there seems to be pretty much nowhere else to do so around that area of Brixton. I couldn't figure out why they didn't do something about the lack of seating with all the refurbishment.
 
Good question. The TFL website is rather vague, and the Phase 2 leaflet only covers the improvements to the actual high street.
 
They also don't appear to have done much except dig it all up and stick a protective fence around it, after one week of "work" either.
 
There's more than enough bike storage places as it is. Do they not think people might need to, or want to, sit down and watch the world go by for 10 minutes?
 
There is no excuse whatsoever for public drunkenness or disorderly behaviour at any time of day or night.

I find them intimidating, so I have no choice but to avoid the area, thus there is nowhere to sit except a bus stop - which is not the most comfortable or pleasant experience, especially with the skunk dealers touting for business.
 
You two should get a room. After 30 years here I've never been hassled by 'peasant' drunkards in Windrush, despite living at the end of the road (Saltoun) for years. It's pretty darn easy to avoid them tbh.

Given that AJ has some kind of reality distortion field that make him see cyclists causing the most traffic disruption and invisible excess bike stands and that you, PBoi are a bit of a unpleasant, simplistic plum you'll have to excuse me not not taking either of you very seriously. It's like the Chuckle Brothers trying to be controversial.

But the bus stop for Brixton Hill doesn't have any seats, nor does it even have a shelter :hmm:
 
and you have lived in Brixton for years, a shit part. kudos to getting used to the drunkards that hang about all day, you cant seriously think they add anything at all to the area. in anyway. like, at all.
 
I suspect a lot of them have contributed more to the area than you ever will my little Chuckle Brother.

It's not about 'getting used' to anyone, more simple tolerance and understanding towards others. I'd love to know what you think you contribute, but I suspect fatuous, unpleasant generalisations are about all you really offer.

And what do you "add to the area", pboi?
 
who knows. do you know how to quantify it? My local butchers like me! thats a start

..but I sure as hell dont detract from the area.
