I like Angels and Gypsies, but it's as pricey if not more so than Boqueria or Courtesan. You'd be hard-pressed to come out of there spending only £20 a head, as a bottle of wine costs nearly half that amount, and each tapas is £5-9.

We've been there several times with family and its always been around £20 ahead. :)
 
My family drive me to drink! One of the things that annoys me about A&G is that they charge for bread.
 
I don't mind the price if they actually cook the tapas. But often they are just slicing off a bit of pig or opening a jar of olives or anchovies.
 
Chocolate Museum (@ChocMuseumSW9) Today's the day for chocolate fun...Starting now! Children chocolate making 11am to 3pm and Charlie & The Chocolate Factory.

I can't go and see. Hopefully it has a bit more chocolate 'museum' than shop. Good luck to them with it, nice thing to have in Brixton if done well.
 
Oh dear :facepalm::D

It was on the guido fawkes website but according to a tweet from lambeth its a hoax:

Lambeth Council ‏@lambeth_council
@GuidoFawkes This is a hoax and not from Lambeth Council. Correct number is 020 7926 9000. More info at. http://ow.ly/ivPQI

Where's the proof that it's a hoax though? Lambeth are not known for their accuracy in letters they send out (dog thesis being one example)

Nour now has a sign up saying "no photos" :D

In other news, somewhere on Market Row is doing a litre of sangria and 6 tapas for £30.

And I enjoyed shouting WANKER at a white van man who ran the red light outside the Beehive and nearly ran me over.

you could lose your voice doing this, and the wankers who stop astride the crossing :mad: I might have to start carrying a hammer again for those type of opportunities
 
A small vignette from last night: Coked up posh bloke yapping on phone arrives outside the Dogstar last night at 3am. Bouncer politely informs him that there's no admission after 3am so he can't get in. Posh bloke carries on yapping away. His friends then arrive in cab five minutes later and fail to understand why they can't get in. Posh bloke looks baffled. I direct them to the glorious surrounds of the Atlantis Bar.

I was in the Ritzy bar last weekend in the afternoon after seeing "Broken" with a couple of friends. At table next to us they were talking loudly about there parents Council tax in Hampshire. It really grated my friends and me. They sounded so Home Counties.
 
Also from last night:
I was halfway up Trinity Rise and 3 worse for wear yoots came out of Brockwell Park Gardens, halfheartedly arguing about how the way to Peckham (no oyster cards and next to no bus fare money between them). When they asked me, I said "downhill and then turn left towards Camberwell". They carried on in exactly the wrong direction (Upper Tulse Hill) in search of fags and johnnies (according to the loudest of them). Er, yeah, good luck with lighting one and using the other if your coordination's as bad as your navigation. :facepalm: :D
