Camberwell news and chitter-chatter

[buscador]

Reminds me of the Fuck Me Barbie night at some dodgy pub in the back streets of Camberwell - and, yes, that was the cabaret.

Great show! Just two women and barbie dolls. I'm sure that was up near london bridge, but it was a age ago.

I've probably posted this before, but did you know Camberwell is home to Southwark Council's abandoned nuclear bunker? iirc boohoo told me about it years ago

I need to have a look at this when I'm home!

Lambeth's supposed 'abandoned nuclear bunker' is also in Camberwell as it happens.

Presumably it's fairly easy to just climb in there at the moment, then.

 

[mango5]

Urbex people do it. It's not readily accessible.

 

[Onket]

Is that not it in the video?

 

[mango5]

Yes but I suspect it was specially opened up for this art thing. There used to be a hole in the fence but I'm not sure now.

There was a bunker where the Heygate was too.

In happier news, having seriously neglected Zeret Kitchen for a decade Ilve eaten there twice in the last fortnight. And will be back! Stick that in yer best of Camberwell/Walworth wasteland mate-promoting blog posts!

 

[Onket]

Mate-promoting?

 

[mango5]

It seemed to me that blog post revolved substantially around the preferences of DJ Dazzle and hearsay. Have you got any 'chitter-chatter' to contribute about Camberwell?

 

[Onket]

A blog post generally revolves around the preferences of the person who writes it, doesn't it?!

 

[mango5]

I reserve the right to express my opinion, especially when asked.

 

[Onket]

Of course. But expect people to point out how silly it is, when it is.

 

[mango5]

Expect?

 

[Onket]

Which bit is unclear?

 

[mango5]

Queens Nails (next to Caravaggio) is now closed and has a license application posted on the shutters. 2014/15 is seeing the fall of the barbers/nail bars and the rise of the cafe bars.

Also, the Wells Way Triangle Residents Association are running a public art competition with £500 prize money and cost of materials

Hill bakery opens today.
Southwark is consulting about the future of Burgess Park with accompanying exhibition in various locations.
Also, some locals have started a petition to bring Boris bikes to SE London
And The Crooked Well is recruiting

FM Mangal. Yum.

Really love this place the home made pitta bread and the onion dipping 'secret' sauce is right up there in one of my favourite starters of all time. That's free along with the fruit , amaretto and turkish delight - plus the best bbq in South London both taste and value wise.

I was there again the other day and it was delicious.
