Well maybe the guy who took over from you will decide he's in maybe a worse state and do it. The fact that he came forward means it doesn't sound like he's going to totally abandon him - hopefully

Hopefully. He was in a right state and the weather is truly terrible tonight. I can't bear the thought of him stumbling around completely out of it, covered in blood.

You did the right thing and left him with someone else who was going to help him. You didn't abandon him, you passed on responsibility to someone else in a position to help

I hope so. Still feel bad though.
 
I've checked the instructions and it's all my fault. You have to tell the weather station what the weather is doing in order for it to display the correct weather. So I have changed the sunshine symbol to the rain-falling-from-clouds symbol. And now the station is telling me that the tendency is rain. I don't know how I ever managed without it.

:D

Well I suppose it's a bit like a watch/clock. Needs to be set first :hmm:

Maybe you have to make it recognise that the stuff outside is rain by setting the rain symbol whilst it's raining, sort of thing
 
I suppose. I was rather hoping that the Weather Sensor which is outside on the window ledge is supposed to use its High Frequency Transmitter to inform the Weather Station about the prevailing atmospheric conditions. Perhaps it think it's at Lidl HQ in Deutschland. There's nothing in the manual about telling it what Brixton is.
 
Things I liked about Brixton tonight:
- the weather
- bars with a puppies
- Eritrean taxi drivers

Things i disliked about Brixton tonight:
Loads but then I remember the above so none.

Eeek! I was enjoying considerably cheaper pints at the Albert/414/Dogstar tonight.

I think we might have had 50p tax for being in the wankers (VIP) area which was worth it as we had some chatting to do but still, that's a good markup.
 
Lovely. Maybe they thought the rain would wash it away

Although considering the rain was almost horizontal tonight, you could take perverse pleasure in the fact that their piss might have been horizontal and they may have pissed on one of their friends

Better if the wind arced around and blew the piss right back in their stupid faces. Most don't even try to cover up what they're doing and just stand on the pavement with their cocks out.

Is Friends of Brixton Market still going? The upcoming meetings page of their site is a little bare http://www.friendsofbrixtonmarket.org/calendar-2/

iirc they seemed to go a bit quiet after the food 'revolution' grew in Granville Arcade. I went to a few of their events when they were first set up (2008ish?) when there was a real threat that Granville Arcade would be knocked down and turned into some sort of retail development. I guess they might perceive there's less of a need for FBM now (given the buoyant nature of business in the covered markets) but I still think the market in general could do with some more support, especially the retail (i.e. not cafes/restaurants) side of things.
