I went to the Streatham Hill PO for the first time ever today. There was no queue. NO QUEUE! :eek: I'm not sure I've ever not queued at a PO before? Then I went to the bank and it took an hour. :(

OTOH, there was no queue in the Nationwide this afternoon, which was a first.
 
Will there be jazz at the Effra tonite? Either the Effra, or the Effra Social. Free jazz anywhere is what I want. Has to be tonight in an interesting part of London, for a small group of American youngsters.

Not at Effra Social as Morten Valence are playing there. I thought it was only on Sundays at the Effra but I may be wrong.

Hideaway in Streatham might be worth a look.
 
Hideaway is not cheap or free though is it?

I thought it was on tonight at the Effra Hall, but then I tend to avoid the effra after 8 on a Friday /csb.
 
Just heard that Honest Burger are opening another branch in Camden Lock. Apparently the market management have kicked out three existing (and popular) food vendors to make way for them. The traders have said they will not buy from them, but I'm not sure it's their fault really.

I'm wondering if they are trying to turn the Lock into a villaage.

That's the power of a big wad for you.
 
Where can I get a 3.5mm to 2.5mm adapter? For audio stuff? So I can plug a 3.5mm jack into a 2.5mm socket. Trying to connect a portable MP3 player to an old skool amp.
 
I reckon I've got at least one in somebody else's attic! It's the kind of thing you keep for years but you can never find when you want it.
 
I might have one somewhere but it'll take a while to find the thing.

Turns out it was the wrong thing. I bought one from the phone shop in Reliance Arcade and ten minutes later swapped it for what I really needed, a 3.5mm jack to 2 x RCA. :facepalm: Sounds surprisingly good though.

Ben and Jerry's Chocolate Fudge Brownie half price at Iceland - £2.25 for 500 ml.:p

Saw that earlier. I went into Iceland as it the only place I can count on for mint choc chip ice cream. Which, by the way is cheaper that even a half price Ben and Jerry's :rolleyes: ;)

On the subject of Iceland I really fucking hate the entrance to that place :mad:
 
Update..

The Iceland mint choc chip ice cream is okay for the price. Tasty ice cream but light on the choc chips.
 
Great old school blues band in the Albert tonight - and great to see a familiar face behind the decks at the 414.
 
Where to buy a 15 amp fuse on a Sunday / Bank Holiday Monday? Fuse blown, no cooker :(
Times like this you really miss Woolies.

I'd try some of the places that sell household stuff - there's a coupLe on Railton and one on Pope's Rd.
 
There's a Caribbean and Latino 'street festival' on at the Domino club right now. The bass is mighty!
