I think Alan Parker made it just after Midnight Express. Quite a contrast.

last week watched him calmly and politely diffuse a potentially unpleasant situation over whether a lottery ticket receipt had been received or not. customer went from 0-100% rabid in seconds, with some nasty threats to the coop worker ("i know what time you finish and i'll be waiting")Lizzy Mac He's back ! (co-op security man)
security man to the rescue - polite, quiet but firm (customer said "no no no mate i'm not angry, i just want to kick his/her fucking head in"). when i left, security man was in control.

Are we invited to Councillor Braithwaite's Public Realm Group?

Might be advisable to sign in as Donald Duck in view of the Higgs shenanigans.
I think we urgently need something like Mr Murdoch's new "Baby Shard" to put LJ on the map.
Obviously top priority needs to be given to roof gardens and gyms. There are definitely not enough gyms in LJ.

TFL to take control of London's entire suburban rail network... I assume this will also mean the Sutton Loop, although not specifically mentioned.. they do call out Thameslink, though.

people of LJ.. something big is afoot.
The bid for the farm site has been successful:
"£3,725,629" is the total amount of money that's going to spent on developing the site. That's.. quite a big number.
" to develop around 1,000sqm of employment space"
The thread be here: Loughborough Junction regeneration project, inc. Farm site

I am going to take a hands-off approach to this. Not sure it sounds ideal use of the site - but one can hardly argue it is better kept as it is.
Meanwhile have other fish to fry. On 12th Feb it will be my 30th anniversary as a resident of Coldharbour Lane.
I was wondering how to celebrate? I rather fancied a heavy duty noisy party at the Domino Club - especially as new residents have apparently started to complain already.
It could be a fun community gesture as it coincides nicely with the 30th anniversary of Lambeth's councillors being surcharged for defying Thatcher.
Superb film clip Tricky Skills recently posted
Lloyd Leon who was Lambeth Mayor at the meeting is still a Domino Club trustee I think.
Do I dare to approach him? - he has always been wary of me because of my Liberalism and Metrosexuality.
Then there is the cost of course - should have got LJAG to put in a bid to JP Morgan on my behalf.

I call cowardice on that. White feather in the post.
I worry that the road thing has made us all frightened to declare ourselves on one 'side' or tother in some imaginary divide, which would be stupid.
This (farm site just under 4 million quid guaranteed investment all in all) - which is desperately seeking community steering and involvement to make it work - is surely the biggest thing in our area that we the residents could or should be interested in the outcomes of. Higgs is done,m Loughborough House is just a sad story and objections to other planning applications for flats is pretty much pointless.

We could have the Peter Sellars version of Don Giovanni.yes! party at domino. I like your plan a lot.
Don't understand the cost concern as in my experience you can just turn up. Just say no to the under the counter special punch. They don't do much in the way of opera though, so maybe you should put in a special request.
You may observe 1 m 20s in that this has been transposed to Detroit - but the ambience is very Coldharbour/Loughborough Estate like.

Sorry - no 3671 post thread on the Loughborough Farm site & ancillary land from me.
I'm happy to come to meetings and all that, including speaking out, but I don't think I will be Obsessive Compulsive Posting on this. Had there been general community opposition and an alternative plan maybe. But it sounds as though it has all gone past under the radar - so posting-wise it would be a Pop Brixton type thread with a guerilla war about a done deal.
By next March/April/May we should be all engaging with the Mayoral campaign anyway surely?
I need to ask Sadiq Khan about re-opening East Brixton.
Unfortunately I don't think I could vote for the Zak even if he offered East Brixton - I'm only one generation away from being "In Service" - and now bastards like him are bringing it back again!

What a shame if you're right, which maybe you are if everyone thinks like you do.
What a sad waste of almost 4 million quid of well intentioned 'community' investment that would be then.
There was no time for a "general community opposition and an alternative plan", as I presume you know.
But.. can I come to your birthday party anyway ?
I have a few sort of friends at the domino.

Surely the thing to do is feed into the process - as you seem to be doing, but not to get into public spats on-line about it.
That may be where Pop went wrong (from the Brixton community PR point of view) in that it suddenly did a major detour leaving loads of "stakeholders" with the feeling "I've been robbed".
Maybe I will take an interest - but what interested me the other day was the firm that lets you rent out your living room as an office. If IDS gives me the chop for the third time in 5 years it may come to that.
And as for asking the bastard how many people have committed suicide due to benefits cut off - forget suicide - if this was the USA I'd be down K Mart and he'd be meeting his maker.

When I "like" that - I mean thanks for letting us know.The beanery cafe under the station has gone
I reckon if I was going to diagnose the situation, I would say it had a "fluctuating condition".
Is this the latest result of the Network Rail Stalin purges, would you say - or just death by natural decay?
I must say I can think of nothing more boring and depressing than sinking your life savings into a business venture that attracts little interest and less sales.
I should think if they analysed the suicide statistics they would be replete with examples where Job Centre Plus has misguidedly pressured people to go into their own business.
I'm off to Mosaic Clubhouse now to moan at them. And when I get back I've just received a DVD from Amazon called "Loser" about a oner-eyed gambler. Allegedly connected with my hero Werner Hertzog in some way - but the cover is keeping pretty quiet about that.

Did you get a reply from Fluid on the adventure playground issue?
Just read through the report ( except for building heights).
The worksheets at end of report are for the first meeting of the Community Reference Group on 13th May not the second meeting which I am assuming Fluid reckon most table supported moving Adventure Playground to Elam Open Space.

Page 25 of the final stage 2 consultation report:
Who writes this stuff? Do officers just put it in as it sounds good?
Nothing against the Farm ( "Her" Farm as it known around the estate) myself but its hardly got huge local support.
Even with this kind of hyperbole reading the report one can see the divisions in LJ.
