The problem with knocking down the multi-storey car park in Popes Road was that it hurt a lot of market trader's pockets, some businesses are complaining of a 40% drop in business... People are going to Tesco instead, which suits the council just fine... They're apparently opening another branch on CHL, in the unit where Brixton Cycles was BITD... Cuz the one in Long Acre is too far away, right?
I believe Tesco were to blame for Streatham closing down as that's being turned into a mega-superstore/ice rink/bowling alley/shopping centre... Conspiracy?
Antic London is still trading, they're selling off all their pubs outside London AFAIK... I just don't like that they're calling it the Effra Social... But if it confuses the Clapham helmets, and sends them there instead of the Effra Hall, that may be a good thing...
I've been meaning to go down to the ice rink and watch some hockey, looks like fun...
