What's it like to live in Brixton / Brixton Borders

an even scarier scenario is that there's a very real chance that our economy is in the hands of vapid 22 year old know-nothings, not because this specific 22 year old is extraordinarily gifted, but because this specific 22 year old has opposable thumbs.

You brixton manz need to wifey dat

First post that makes sense in this thread.

I think its a nice story about friendship.
Brightened up my day.

ladies and gentlemens - after many years of broken promises and speculation, it brings me great pleasure to confirm that this years Lambeth County Fair headliner is none other than the finest proponents of "Successful Black Man's BBQ Music" ( © another forumenger ) ASWAD!

fucking ASWAD!

ASWAD were great BITD...

...not so great LITD.

Woaaah-oaaaah Shine!

Killer.

Greenhell, best keep that shit in check, a whirl of black folk will defend Aswad to the death. Just because they had a couple of hits, and spent some time at the top of the hit parade doesn't mean that they are the final harbingers of the gentrification apocalypse (if there could be such a thing in brockwell park), and despite me not going for years, Lambeth County Fair always plays the dub and reggae thing, surprised they haven't got Aba shanti down as well..

#babylon

it was more a gentrification rapture, and it's been and gone mate - we're just the ones left behind.

looool

Now Aba Shanti really WOULD be Killer. Who do I petition to make this happen?

actually i'd rather like to see Billy Ocean. And he's OG brixton. Or he at least owns half of it.

greenhell, I can see you doing the white boy shuffle to billy ocean..

just for you

Billy Ocean - Caribbean Queen 1984 - YouTube

As long as the knights and jousting shit are there again this year. That was JUST like Game of Thrones.

I also hope they bring back the owl prison. That was pretty great.

Love that book.

as do I, used to give it out as a present, then didn't have any copies of my own.
am petitioning for it to be released as a kindle book..

Restaurant recommendations in Stretham? May go to El Chico's. Love me some Tex-Mex. But maybe there's something else you guys think would be worth checking out?

KFC plenty of seats.

Negril?

Thinking more Streatham proper, than Brixton Hill. But I've still failed to ever make it to Negril and its mysterious opening hours.

KFC if the first one isn't streatham enough for you then go along some more and is another one.
