The lego block is definitely the new Julians building.
I live right next door to the Leisure Centre so I can assure you that it's coming along at a right old pace - in fact, the builders have a contract to finish it by the end of Jan, so it'll be done by then, otherwise they'll start paying penalties. I guess it'll take a while to fit out after that, and then it'll be open by the spring.

You must have been looking at the wrong thing. I went on site about six weeks ago, and went in the building and it's definitely up and there. I saw guys laying the tiles for the swimming pool then.

oh well that's good news. I did think it was a bit odd because I know when the deadline is - there was definitely a huge mound of rubble but maybe it was there as well as the actual building. I am very very happy that there's a swimming pool opening there so I was a bit depressed when I saw that - so this is good news. At the time I was very very stressed so couldn't look properly.
How did you get to go on site? I'd love to see in there.
Nice thunder happening atm.....is the storm over London or CP\Surrey way?

Yeah, it must have been behind the pile of rubble. It's huge. Come round to ours if you fancy a looksee.

When you said you live right by the new sports centre I was wondering if you knew yourself.. before I knew that you are you.

I do wonder if I know myself sometimes...
I've been to West Norwood, but I've never been to me.

I've eaten there twice. It's a bit like someone's nan cooking for you, in a good way. It's also a bit like eating in a sit com, also in a good way. It's very cheap, but everything is added up by hand (no till or calculator) and the second time we ate there, their maths was a bit, um, dodgy. But even with that it's very reasonably priced.

Apparently this http://www.folkofthewood.co.uk/ is a great night out = Folk of the Wood at the portico on Knight's Hill. MrDB went last night, it was sold out, good music, family friendly, kids joining in the Cielidh, MrDB especially rated The Salts. And The Greenravens combined band from Elmgreen and Dunraven. (parental pride).

definitely going to try to go in January if anyone would like to come and I believe some urbanites are playing the music there in February.

This, That and The Other is now closed and the shop emptied out.
Looks like the Lidl in Crown Point is being approved. The planning committee's recommendation is to Grant permission and the meeting is on the 6/2/14
I never thought I'd be this excited about a Lidl!

I'm a fan of Lidl but I think I'd prefer an Aldi. If you have a car, Norbury and Streatham Lidl are no distance from Crown Point. If you don't own a car, how will you get the 2,000 toilet rolls and a gas welder home?

Update on the new pub I spotted today on one of my rare forays onto Facebook.

Lets hope it gets through.....although I always worried about the flats above with regards noise and unlike the Railway et al they were there first.
They should have carried on with the site by the Station which has been finished ages.
No car....I'll get a sholley like my nan used to have!

Did anyone go to the January Folk of The Wood? I couldn't make it, sadly, but will be at the Feb gig. They are branching out and doing Saturday afternoon gigs at the Effra Social - first one this Saturday, 1st March, starting at 1 or 1.30pm.

There is a group of us going for the Feb do as there is a band with some urbanites in it. The Effra thing is specifically family friendly - can't go this Sat (1 Feb..
) but I'm hoping to go in March instead. Actually should tag Boudicca really as she kindly tried to help me get to the December one.
