Would you let a baby cat out alone at 10 at night? With no collar with a phone number on? This area is absolutely full of foxes due to myatts field being across the road. Believe me i don't want a cat, the dog's going fucking crazy.

Anyway, we're taking it to Battersea to get its card read this morning.

Dismisses woman with the descriptor 'histrionics' :thumbs::facepalm: what a charmer

So you're a woman? How am I supposed to know that? Not that it matters, I'm more than happy with your 'nonsensical histrionics' label, which I don't regard as gender specific. You might recall that the last (and only) time when I politely ventured an opinion different from yours, you called me a cunt and a troll. That was after you posted more nonsensical histrionics. So I have zero respect for you or your posts. You reap what you sow. I suspect that because I am new here you thought you could bully me into silence. I don't like bullies, but I try to feel sorry for them, because the bullying only comes from their weakness of character. So you have my sympathy.

Ah, I'd forgotten you. Yeah, you're the angry, self satisfied type find of making grand pronouncements based on no evidence.

And I always love angry people doing the 'I feel sorry for you' spiel. Usually involves spittle :rolleyes:

Just had a free health check up at Brixton library. (they are there until 4pm)
It only takes 20 minutes and you get the results straight away.

Some of you may be pleased to hear that i am in excellent shape for my age and i only have a 6.5% risk of having a cardiovascular event over the next ten years. My blood pressure is good and i have little chance of getting diabetes type 2. Still work to do on weight and cholesterol but only marginal improvements needed. I'm going to do a lot more than marginal.

I'm an inch shorter than i always thought i was :(

It aimed at over 40s. Its free and worth doing. Someone I know who did it found he had early stage diabetes and so got help for it before it got worse.
 
I can't find a mention of the sale of Franco Manca. It was in March. So in case anyone missed it...
City restaurateur David Page’s Fulham Shore vehicle has spent £27.5 million on its latest venture, snapping up Franco Manca. The sourdough pizza chain was founded by Giuseppe Mascoli and started with one restaurant in Brixton Market in 2008. It now has 10 branches across the capital, including two which arrived last year in South Kensington and East Dulwich. Fullham Shore already operated the Tottenham Court Road Franco Manca, a relationship that encouraged Fullham to pursue the deal. "Franco Manca's short, simple menu can support good restaurant margins. This has been demonstrated by the Group's existing franchise at Tottenham Court Road which has been operating for over a year," it said in a statement. Page, a 30-year veteran of Pizza Express, also founded and chaired Clapham House, the owner of the Gourmet Burger Kitchen and Bombay Bicycle Club. Franco Manca will join the Real Greek restaurant chain as part of Fullham Shore's portfolio.

Thought it had been around longer than 2008, I first visited in Oct that year apparently.

I love that what was important is that "Franco Manca's short, simple menu can support good restaurant margins."

The fact the other restaurants associated with him are Pizza Express,Gourmet Burger Kitchen, Bombay Bicycle Club and the Real Greek, bodes well </sarcasm>
 
Here's a bloke that like to make videos of bus journeys. So here is the eagerly awaited latest blockbuster with the catchy title of: "Abellio London Alexander Dennis Enviro 400MMC Hybrid 2497 YY64 TYV. 109 Brixton To Corydon"

 
It looks like they've been stripping out Electric Social today. Sitting on the pavement along side the skip is one of their purple Chesterfields that has to be worth a couple of hundred quid. I sincerely hope that the BHF next door were offered first refusal before it was unceremoniously dumped.

They put those same buses on the 415 and I have been very impressed. Maybe not enough to make a video, but I have enjoyed the journey.
 
Splutter. NZ doesn't have an equivalent of radio 4. The entire media industry down there is completely juvenile and backward.
 
Here's the latest non-affordable, social housing-free outpost of the ever growing Lexadon property empire on Gresham Road.
