And I don't.

Corker of a sunset over Brixton right now...

View attachment 39843

That's a brilliant picture. I was wondering if you were going to stick one up when I was taking one a not very good one

 

[Onket]

That's a great picture, minnie.

 

[Orang Utan]

David is crying wonky blue tears.

GOOD

 

[snowy_again]

Besides he moved to Bromley aged 5 or 6.

Is that your suggested replacement for the Bowie mural?

 

[snowy_again]

Frankly it's better than that tag. I'm always bemused why DB looks a bit like he's made of wax in the mural too. Not that that takes anything away from it.

Please, someone do a really naff Major mural.

I thought we had agreed that he lived in Camberwell.

I think we'll have to appropriate him. People would think twice about moving into Brixton with a massive Major mural on display.

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

That's a great picture, minnie.

Wish I got the view editor got, but sunset is to the side of me and don't really want to fall out the window stretching any further around

Isn't it. I think she could easily get a job at the National Geographic with that in her portfolio.

 

[Dexter Deadwood]

John Major?

 

[Brixton Hatter]

I thought we had agreed that he lived in Camberwell.

He lived on Burton Road, just inside the SW9 postcode (the end of the street is SE5).

Just showed my mate the pic of the Bowie mural and she reckons the tag has improved it!

 

[Brixton Hatter]

Anyway, on to more important topics, anyone know if the Phoenix is open today?

He's been on his hols but I'm hoping he might be back today cos I could kill for a proper breakfast....

Not open yesterday mate.

That John Major is a work of art, it has to be said.....but there must be SOME decent people from Brixton? Fucked if I can think of any though.

they have all sorts on the brixton pound, but they all seem to have stopped by briefly and so get 'claimed'- Luol Deng for example

 

[Badgers]

Free gig in Windrush Square. The 'healing through song' festival is FUCKING BANGING I tell ya.

I'm afraid I'm very, very much over him. Besides, he let a mate down recently at a gig he was booked at.

 

[lang rabbie]

Oh dear God, that really is nasty.

I have an alibi.

Shame to hear. He is enthralling to watch. Yesterday was playing a dance/drum version of Roxanne that was stopping traffic.

 

[Frumious B.]

I was there for that, it was magic. I took a pic. Unfortunately I missed the moment when he used a passing bus as a drum.

I was standing just behind you to the left at that point.

 

[Frumious B.]

And I still don't know who you are!

I get that you are 'over him' but clearly people really want to listen to him? Perhaps book him, don't advertise him and if he comes the wounds could be healed?

 

[pissflaps]

drum solos... ugh.
