Those two tags were done last week / week before - local graffiti kids Ders and Gors. Unrelated to the Yuppies Out thing.

Ders and Gors? That's their names or does Ders and Gors mean something?

Probably nicknames or abbreviations of actual names, tag names are sometimes chosen by selecting a combination of four or five letters that one prefers to write - ones that can be written quickly, that flow onto the next letter well, or that can be written / drawn in lots of different ways. S, R and E much more common than B, X ..

Pizza delivery news: Bravi Raggazi, which is as good as Franco Manca, has a three-mile delivery zone. It's at the junction of Sunnyhill rd and Streatham main drag

 

[nagapie]

But it's just pizza. We need a decent Turkish or Vietnamese that deliver to the Hills.

I won't post up names yet, but very big congratulations are due to a certain landlord and his wife as they're now the proud parents to a baby boy

There is a Turkish place on Streatham Hill that delivers, never tried it but quite expensive. Troy.

Barbecue on Battersea Ride delivers to our neck of the woods. Its Lebanese, but meets the same craving as Turkish. Ish

And, rather fabulously, I have been told there is a place called

Pasha Kazakh Kyrgyz House on Camberwell Road. Kazakh food is spectacularly grim, but it sounds interesting​

He popped out quite quick.
Great news

Anyone noticed these bees appearing in Brixton?

 

[quimcunx]

Love the bees, man.

It looks rather interesting from the outside as well! Gone past on the bus a few times.

There is one on side of "Kaff" and also under the railway bridge in CHL.

This shows how well this street artist did the bee.

When I initially looked at that pic, I didn't scroll down as far as the writing and thought it was a photo.
I did think "would many people be noticing the difference between certain breeds of bee in Brixton?"
