I prefer to think of them as flavoured sugary goodness, with a cake underneath it.
At least there aren't 30 of them in Brixton like there seems to be coffee shops, fried chicken shops and nail bars.

and mobile phone shops
I went into every single one of the 5 of them today
Was surprised to discover they won't let you buy a mobile phone and return it if you don't get on with it

That's Catherine Shepherd - she's often in Brixton. Her timing is genius. Best deadpan in the business. She ought to be HUGE.

I'm in the band, I play the strumpet
Popped in today, lot of little junky bits, several sofas, a lovely rocking horse, coffee tables, etc. They seemed to have dismantled a pub recently- bar stools, HUGE speakers, a pool table, smoke machine. Oh, and several fireplace surrounds.

I'm on a local community mailing list and just got the below through. Just thought it was interesting, both in a nerdy research methods kind of way and then as something to think about locally. Obviously I'm going to take a pic of the Marquis and send that in (for the relationships and sense of community, not for the Guinness and roll ups). There's more detail in the full email, which I can post if there's interest.
#feelgoodlambeth Photo Challenge
Background
People who live and work in Lambeth use different things to help them to feel well and keep healthy. They might be:
· Places, such as a park, café, gym or library
· Services, such as a pharmacy, children’s centre, local businesses or workplaces, or GP surgery
· Relationships, such as family, friends, neighbours, church or a support group
· Knowledge and skills, such as how to cook, how to play a sport, or a work skill
In order for Lambeth’s Health and Wellbeing Board to understand how it can work with people in Lambeth to improve their health and wellbeing, we need to understand what currently works.
The Challenge
We’re asking people to help us identify the places, services, relationships and skills, or ‘assets’ that they think make a difference to them; helping them to feel well and keep healthy. We’re asking people to take photos of these assets, and give them back to us, before our next Health and Wellbeing event in February. You could also use Twitter or Instagram to “tweet” your pictures using #feelgoodlambeth tag. Just let us know!
Using your photos we’ll create a health and wellbeing asset map of Lambeth which will show all the places, services, people and things that make Lambeth residents feel healthy and good about them selves

Looks like a young Boris Karloff. Perhaps he's auditioning for "Frankenstein with Bells On".

Have you alerted the Yuppies Out facebook page to that particular little gem?

In his defence it is a nationwide charity thing for cancer research- today is Christmas jumper day- rather than unprovoked twattishness

His caption only implores people to come down to his shop.
