Lewisham Neighbourhoods Chitter Chatter

We went to the constitutiojnal club for sunday lunch in Catford the other day , very nice it was too with some top beers in. Great building, like having a pub in a squat!
I've been a couple of times now and really like it - as you mention, some great beers.
 
Hi,

Does anyone know what the theatre/outdoor performance thing happening on the patch of grass behind the 2 little fenced off parks near the Greenwich end of Deptford Church Street is? I asked the Security people who spent the night looking after the stage and equipment and they said things start at the Cutty Sark and end in Deptford but weren't sure on times.

Anju.

I don't know but I will go have a look later
 
Is there a pub in Catford that has a potential decks/function room? Or even wine bar type thing? I cant think of a single thing still open
 
Anyone check out the street food festival?

No, but lots of reviews/comments on local websites - Brockley Central and its spin-off website, SE Central.

Sounds a) crowded and b) full of hipsters.

Someone said it had a 'favela' vibe. :facepalm::hmm:
 
i dont think either would be too keen on music....havent been in CCC yet, but antic pubs dont really have music IME...you never know...
They vary...the Ravensbourne has music. Well, jazz anyway. If you look down the Goose's facebook page they do mention some music nights but nothing too recent. The function room looks quite fancy.

A mate of mine went and she said it's pretty much Brick Lane/dalston come to Lewisham. She reeled off some very cringey names that the stall holders have given their food too. I don't think I will bother myself.
 
They are searching everyone going into the park. So don't come with any booze. Instant buzzkill. Screw this. I'm going home. Some shit punk is playing.
Not a patch on the LCS.
 
Glass not allowed...no prob with plastic bottles.As my Aldi's Pimms can testify
... Just maxed out on the herb stall...and bumped into a friend I havent seen for 20 years. She went to work in australia and i went to work in greece... before the days of mobile phones and facebook... serendipity don't you just love it.
 
The Peoples Day thing was too hot and I was too hungover. I sat in the shade, had a curry, and listened to some band knock out a few Nirvana and Gary Numan covers before crawling back to the sofa.
 
Does anyone know much about Ray Woolford/Housemartins/People Before Profit?
A lot of leaflets from PBP talk sense, but I've read Woolford is a bit of a political chameleon. Talks about people power but is a big landlord who evicts people on Xmas Eve and is now chairman of Lewisham Conservatives? Weird!
