House prices in the London borough of Lambeth, which includes Brixton (pictured), have risen by 37% in the past year.

Reason to celebrate for most of the people on this thread.

Why do Marxists only drink herbal tea?

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?

I went to El Chicos once, it's an experience. I recommend going once, and then laughing about it and never going back.

Pratt's & Payne do lovely food. Or there's a tapas place which is awesome, called Bar 69 (http://www.bar61.com).

streatham is second only to camden in sheer grim, soul sucking shithole-iness.

I disagree, nothing wrong with Streatham...

Streatham used to be fun times.
Now it just reminds me of what could have been.

when last were you on streatham high road? its heady mix of poundstores, western union branches, shit pubs, an odeon that smells of piss, stale hot dog water and murder (which i'm actually rather fond of) and abandoned branches of Blockbuster makes it a 12" single version of croydon.

You think Joe's ridden up that hill? Lolz!

(I actually quite like Streatham).

When were you last in Streatham Russ?
That dead blockbusters is now Tariq's Halal Meat. When it opens.

last week.

there's a giant tescos that Mrs Hell loves for some reason.

they do have a quality trampies there mind you... i mean REALLY good. And free samples galore.

Try Kilburn High Road

I was up there a coupla weeks ago, it's fine...

One of my fave trips used to be up to trainer paradise, Sports & Things, it's a Sports Direct now...

That bit in Streatham around the MEGA Tesco's is up there in my top 10 of "Places I least want to be in the world"

that Tescopolis is a font of LIES. 24 hours my ass, the cunt closes on 4 of a sunday.

Really?
There are many worse places in my life.

Went to the Streatham Odeon once, a nice young man threw a lit rocket in through the main doors while we were waiting in the foyer. Took off up the side stairs and exploded narrowly missing mrs_com and I. That was a pleasant experience.

5, what do you think this is Morrison's?

The Morrison's had really nice/cheap planters the other day for a tenner. Wanted to buy one, but did not want to get it back to Bethnal Green.
