[leanderman]

Clue: He looks more and more like his Mum with each passing year. Apart from the beard.

Hereditary journalist! Trade is full of them.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but as I passed thru station road just now the roti wagon was gone

That sucks.

She had a sign up this weekend when I walked past basically asking why she was being persecuted for doing an honest job. Hope things work out for her.

 

[BoxRoom]

Damn

 

[Manter]

the guy I know who spoke to her about legal advice said there were a lot of complications- he (obviously) won't tell me more, but there are people helping her

 

[youngian]

That's why there was a question mark at the end of my sentence, as I'm not at all convinced that having tatty chairs is the reason for revoking her licence. I figured there must be something else and was hoping for further info

That was my feeling before this thread turns into a Richard Littlejohn council busybody rant.

The van is very much still there

Must be cunning day-time use of the anti-Council Tarpaulin Of Invisibility.

Oh, if only there were such a thing!

Where do I get one ? Are they cheaper than parking permits
Apologies for any distress caused, maybe she hooked it up to a vehicle and took it out for a spin

 

[Winot]

It has been moved before.

COVERT STEALTH VAN

 

[George & Bill]

I had a roti last week and she said she was waiting for a court date for her appeal.

 

[George & Bill]

Problem is she does seem a little on th batty side, hope she manages to navigate her way through all this...

COVERT STEALTH VAN

A mobile caravan? Whatever will these boffins come up with next?

 

[The KGB]

Was once in the shop on Railton Road. In front of me was a man grasping two large tubs of Haagen Daaz. I casually blurted out an ironic "TWO TUBS?" . At which point Jay Rayner turned round and mumbled something about being hungry and skulked out of the shop.

Mortified I was.

 

[hassan]

What do you guys recommend from the van? Want to try it before its gone. I always passed it but never bought anything

 

[shifting gears]

Mixed veg roti is pretty amazing - pumpkin, spinach, chick peas... And be sure to get some of her homemade hot sauce on there too (laden with scotch bonnets!)

Really praying for a miracle - she's such a nice lady, always a story to tell and invariably leave with a smile on my face

 

[George & Bill]

I agree about the veggie ones - the meat ones are tasty, but require some fairly careful bone-removal.

 

[MariaLeFrink]

I'll be gutted if it goes.

 

[Boudicca]

Been towed away today according to Brixton Blog

booooooooo

 

[nagapie]

I went to get a couple last Saturday and it was closed so I reckon she's not been trading for a while.

 

[TruXta]

Noooo!

 

[peterkro]

Bastards!

I was talking to the Jamaican food-van guy yesterday. He said she knew the trailer had to be gone by today or it would be impounded. She probably just didn't have the money to get it moved.
