Are Antic a chain? Or more of a collective? Different pubs seem to sell totally different food and beer

Re: The Lewisham Card Has Launched

Thomas, do you have window stickers for businesses that accept the card. Just walked past the Calabash of Culture and there was no way of knowing they were part of the scheme. External (subtle and attractive) branding would help the business as card holders would be more likely to stop in when passi...

Re: #RebuildTheGreyhound - pub to be rebuilt by April 2015?

I can't wait for it to open and will support it. Any comments I have made are to try and ensure its a long term, viable and hopefully local and unique business (antic would be fine: each pun of theirs feels very different to each other). With the pub restored and all the units occupied it'll really ...

For whatever reason Thomas did not leave a link. So here is one: http://www.lewishamcard.co.uk/discounts/

I am somewhat upset to see Chris Ball roofing offering 10% discount. Particularly upsetting as I received my invoice from them on Friday and could have saved £200 :(

Re: Can anybody recommend an estate agent?

We bought with Mann and I found them to be infuriating. From the agent who first showed us the house who had no clue about anything in the building to the stupid price range which really meant the top number or nothing to the terrible negotiating tactics (why not just tell us how much the vendors wa...

Re: Keep photo faces anonymous?

Technically there is no expectation of privacy in a public place in the UK. Posting to this forum? I'd say it's fine. Selling to a national newspaper (for some reason)? I'd think about blurring faces of those not involved in the story
