Intriguing photo of what appears to be the back area of the Shrub and Shutter. Looks a bit more genteel than the back bar of My Fathers Place.
That's logical if you think about it. The Brixton part of Dulwich and West Norwood is safe Labour - so sitting candidate Tessa Jowell was best employed trying to get the more Tory & Lib Dem areas of Dulwich onside.
I can't remember in detail earlier elections, but bear in mind that around 2001 Coldharbour was put into Duwich, whereas previously it was Angell Ward, Vauxhall.
The same argument applied to Vauxhall from a Labour point of view though. Brixton was safe Labour whereas the northern areas were marginal.
If they ever redo the boundaries - as should have happened in 2011 but didn't due to the row between Lib Dem and Tories over the House of Lords - then there will probably be a Brixton constituency again and the candidates will not have anywhere to hide.
See the twins regularly. Is that Angie who ran the regent?Half Moon Pub Herne Hill characters, anybody remember any of these?

I think it's a Scottish thing. If you go to McDonalds and get a sausage mcmuffin, it isn't sausage in a case but sausage meat in a patty. Do that in a square shape and that is the square sausage I've had in Scotland.Is that some weird hipstery thing?
brixton just looks like a mini west end for the home counties mob now.
my measure of it is - forgetting house prices, if you asked them "would you raise your kids here? send them to the local schools?" if they said no, which i have a funny feeling a majority would, they should fuck off then!And with their money they bring a shitty attitude and wonder why they are despised.

Lorne sausage is ace. I get my sister to bring me a supply of that and Scotch pies when she comes to visit civilisation every once in a while.
