It's terribly fascinating. A couple of jolly nice blokes get to make a TV show by filming themselves making scrummy cakes in their well-stocked 'pop-up kitchens' and then they enter the Lambeth Country Show best cake competition to see if they can beat the oiks. Whizzo!..........posh cookers ?

this car would cost you sixty grand upwards. an early roadster makes it one of the most desirable and in the best colour. this is a couple of steps away from the one you quoted, which is the least desirable series three 2+2 coupe.Or my fave:
sorry to waffle on about jags.

I'd never buy one, but I just think that aesthetically they're a lot more pleasing to the eye than a lot of super-expensive sports cars. But a Morris Minor Estate is what I'd get if I was going to buy a car. All that wood!

The needs of the vanguard trump your petty bourgeois desires.

You don't wanna get into an accident with all that wood tho. The Jag is probably no better, I'd rather drive the yellow dildo if it's safety that matters.I'd never buy one, but I just think that aesthetically they're a lot more pleasing to the eye than a lot of super-expensive sports cars.

I'd be fine as I'd only be driving through sun-drizzled, car-free country lanes to get to my local, fully staffed GWR station to board a delightful steam train. I'd probably pick up some some big parcels covered in brown paper and string on the way back too.

Weirdo.
You're not Postman Pat are you?

forward communism, forward gerbils!
horrible yuppie couple in the sorting office on blenheim gardens this morning. she didn't have the right id to pick up her item and was giving the guys some shit. then she phoned up the person who sent it to her and instead of telling them off for sending it under a different name she stood at the counter loudly explaining to the sender that the post office guys were fuckwits and really rude and unhelpful. bet they'd fucking moan if the post office let people take stuff without proper id and nick their post.
i said to the bloke behind the counter "well i think you're really helpful and doing a good job" which is a typically passive aggressive english response.

Street Party: July 2
Was it the guy with the shades? He is efficient but a toughie and denied me a parcel for my eight-year-old. In true British style, I apologised and crept out

It's been pretty amazing the way that people who knew about this incident have kept quiet about the details because they knew the harm it might do to the club. It stands testament to the respect people have for the 414 Club.
With the full consent of the club, I've now posted up about the dreadful incident at the 414 Club on the 7th March.
A promoter was shot twice on the dancefloor, and is still in hospital. Police are still investigating.
I hope the 414 will be allowed to reopen as soon as possible as it's not a place with any kind of reputation for this sort of violence. Please add your own comments on the BrixtonBuzz article if you feel so compelled.

I don't think it's compulsory though.

I think you'd be hard pressed to not get one to be honest. They can slap 28 days on you for lesser reasons... I'll see if I can dig out the course notes later.

Agreed. I think it is unfair to lambast the police or licensing in this case. However nice the owners are, someone getting shot directly or indirectly on your watch is a pretty big deal and needs to be properly investigated. We can't expect them to allow the owners to carry a few days later on simply the basis that they regret holding the night and promise not to do it again.
It is also missing the point that the real villains here are those who let the gunman in with a firearm and the person who did the shooting. The consequences of what they have done go well beyond the injuries to the victim.

The investigation would have to turn up some solid reason for it not too though.
Also it depends on who the designated person (licence holder) was on site or if one was available. It may not have been their night but at the end of the day, the buck falls at that persons feet from a licensing perspective.
If the DPS wasn't available or there wasn't a nominated person (there has to be record of this) they could lose their licence just because of that. They're shit hot on that sort of thing at the moment.

I'd like to think so.

There was extra private security and knife arch in place, so that is a question that needs to be asked. The police have taken away the CCTV from the venue and hopefully will unearth something.
I simply can't get my head around why someone would want to start blasting away with a gun in a small club. Or why they'd want to take a gun out with them in the first place. Madness.

Next you'll be extolling the virtues of gentrification!
