Great prices. Makes you realise that all these pubs crying about have they have to charge £4.80 for the cheapest lager or else theyll go under are basically lying.

That's not necessarily true. Some may have crippling rents

Sounds like great prices, although as i understand it a lot of places have the prices set by the brewery that they have deals with or who own the freehold.

Someone mentioned it to me a week or two back and think maybe it was on Twitter.

I went to the art shop upstairs from Kingsheild the Chemist yesterday and the shelves are almost empty. I asked "Are you running the stock down?? Are you closing??" and the bloke behind the counter said "I don't know what they're doing".
I really hope they don't close! I don't go in there often but I buy from there consistently.
Who else shops at the art shop?

I do! I chatted to the bloke about two weeks ago and they said that they were doing OK - I only asked because I noticed the lack of stock too. It would be a real shame to see them go. let me retweet my article on then now in the hope it might help keep them going
Arts and crafts supplies around Brixton – Kingshield Chemists, Cowling & Wilcox and more
This biggest and best arts supply store in Brixton has to be Kingshield Chemists. This superb independent arts supply/stationery store in the centre of town is something of a hidden gem, but itR…

I wholeheartedley agree with your viewpoint
We get stuff in there now and again for the Winotettes. Noticed a distinct lack of stock last time I was in there and had the same thought as you. But that was at least 6 months ago so I guess I was too pessimistic.

There's a very effusive double page spread in the Property Pron section of the Standard today.
A Little Brixton House with a big personality
The location is not stated. At first I guessed possibly Effrta Parade, but it seems like the place is most likely in Merreden Street SW2 - near Archbishop's Place just past Elm Park Methodist Church, going up Brixton Hill.
The illustration is a bit bizarre, in that they ripped out the original staicase and replaced it with a bolt-together bronze staircase with no bannister rail.
Still with Brexit etc no doubt 'elf and safety couldn't give a toss anymore.

I imagine it's a bit easier to create a stylish house in a small space when you've got shitloads of money for custom builds, designer products, 'recycled leather floor tiles' (say, what?) and antique pendants etc. Mind you, this is horrible
What it cost
- Original house in 2015:£489,000
- Cost of extensions and full refurbishment: £90,000
- Value of house now (estimate): £825,000

What excited my initial interest was the claim this house is only nine foot eight wide.
I remember a similar hoo hah about a very narrow house in Camberwell - next to Camberwell Passage I think.

He’s rocked into Nu Brixton paying £50k pa rent + vat , rates , bid etc so he’s hung his existing neighbours out to dry when they get their next rent review !!
That’s a lot of hair to cut when your rent expenses are around £1500 per week
yep, those arches are bloody expensive.
I made enquiries but just couldn't afford it.

£60k was the original asking price, he outbid someone by £20k to get it

On their website it says they also have branches in Sydney , New York and London ( Brixton I guess ? ) I think he’s seriously over estimated the Clientele in Atlantic Road plus by agreeing that rent any of his neighbours paying the Brixton rents set a few years ago will be fuc**d on rent reviews in Nu Brixton !!
