I wouldn't raise your hopes on being able to smoke weed in the garden though. Fucking ridiculous and selfish that some people expect to be able to do so anyway.

What about sniffing meph behind the decks?

What about sniffing meph behind the decks?

People take drugs discretely in pubs all over the country - with toilets usually being the preferred option -but expecting to be able to openly smoke an illegal drug in a pub's garden - and posting about it on social media - is utterly selfish and likely to lead to the pub being closed down for everyone. It's about showing respect to the landlord.

PS I haven't DJd the Albert for fucking years if that was your Big Killer Point.

It's just a shithouse venue.

yeah, not my kind of place either, but is it unusual for dj/promoters to use iffy venues when good ones are in short supply.

I didn't realise that Soho House had already opened in Brixton - Soho Studio on Brighton Terrace. Although it was a Dirty Burger beforehand so perhaps not so surprising.

Dirty Burger shut down a while ago too, if I remember rightly. Maybe 207 or 2018

Maybe 207 ...

AD or BC?

The short-lived cocktail bar that was there was actually pretty good.

The short-lived cocktail bar that was there was actually pretty good.

It was sadly compromised by the pervasive odour of sewage though.

I would expect it to be stonking for £25 a pop for a beef roast dinner. And that before adding any fancy cocktails that are probably at least a tenner each.

I've never known a pub stop serving before time, unless there was an obvious reason like at the battle of Holloway Road. Maybe they're trying to send some of their clientele a message

Or actually, maybe kebab skewers? View attachment 344852

Onion rings and kebabs is a combination I'd have liked to hear Badgers' opinion on

Is it poetic justice that the Beehive is rendered unuseable tonight by hoards of leather-clad Morrisey fans from the Brixton Academy, who I assume "prefer their own race" as per their icon?

I know it's not happening in Brixton, but I wasn't sure where else to put this.
My lovely friend JoJo (she of Cook to Care) is organising a supper club on 10th November in E8, with the support of Chis Kaba's family, all proceeds go his partner and baby. Tickets £55 including two drinks and a 3 course plant based feast influenced by JoJo's Iranian and Greek roots.

I think we might benefit from some photos of their "night"s.
