Re: Bowling Green - Mayow Park

There is also a well maintained bowling green at Alexandra Recreation Ground so there’s not exactly a deficit of them in the area!

Re: Syd Society help request for pavement opposite library?

Be careful with the people who work in the tyre shop, they have been verbally abusive to me when complaining to them about work they carried out which made my car fail it’s MOT.

Re: Penge Indians

I had a takeaway from Penge Masala last night and it was pretty good. I didn’t have any of their meat based dishes so can’t vouch for the quality of those but everything I ordered was tasty & not overly spicy.

Re: The South London Club Card

Re: Estate Agent's Boards

Re: Estate Agent's Boards

Robinson Jackson put one up on my fence, they do let a flat in the building but it's a long term let so surely no need for the sign until the lease comes up? It has not been removed even after numerous phone calls...
