So I got the full low down from Knowles, apologies for repetition. The pop up kitchen is only Thursday-Sunday and is Chinese food this week. The Knowles kitchen proper opens on Tuesday 15th December, serving modern British food and roasts on Sunday.
The restaurant next door is Antic managed but will be called something else and serve pizza, which is what I read here I think.

The price of a pint (Henieken) in Knowles appears to have gone up already by 10p. Although, this is the same in the case of another Antic pub, Hagen and Hyde in Balham, so not going to get out the rotten eggs and tomatoes just yet.
still at least 50p cheaper than the Railway for a premium lager

The Railway is the most expensive pub I know.

And they appear to be selling Vim by the pint. Marvellous!

I read that as Vimto by the pint!

I sent Elizabeth Tompkins a Christmas card last week. She's a lovely woman.

Yes, I used to work for a charity where she was a patron - I'd only been there 5 minutes but she sent me some lovely flowers when I got married.

I am such a duh...I went to the pool today and realised that the last time I went with my girl they divided it up cleverly so it looked very small. I did wonder why it was so small. I was happy to have a proper swim today...40 lengths ain't too bad for starters. It was nice and empty, changing room could be warmer though.
Anyone use the gym in there? Is it decent?

I'm looking to do some swimming when I get back.
What time were you there? Was it 25m lanes?
Are there any decent evening days/times when it's pretty quiet and you can just do lengths uninterrupted?

I was there around 10am and around 10.30 there were only 3 of us in. Off peak is from 9-4pm.
I think it's 25m, maybe Nanker Phelge can confirm.

Leave the gun. Take the cannoli.
It is a 25mtr pool, and they have three - four lanes for different speeds and an open, wider section (which is where I tend to swim)
During school days they have a very smart wall that comes up and makes a training pool, which shortens the 25mtr pool down to around 20mtrs. I try to go very early in the morning to avoid this. I've not been in the evening yet. I'm guessing they drop this down again.
Sometimes one of the main lanes is closed for lessons (generally life saver or junior school kids).
It can be a bit noisy and chaotic when schools are there....but I've learned to shut them out a bit. They're just abit over excitable. The staff do a good job of bringing their energy levels down to acceptable though.

I do, I like it.
Good mixture of machines and free weights, never so busy you have to wait for what you want to use.
Separate smaller weight area up the other end which many people find much less intimidating to use than the heavy free weights area more commonly used by big sweaty blokes, not that it's a macho gym by any means.
Always spare treadmills/bikes/stepper things, not that I use them.

Good to know. I'm not a massive gym bunny but I do like using some of the weights...I might give it a trial next week.
