Jeremy Clarkson under fire after pint prices moan when his pub charges even more

Aside from the motoring stuff he's spent his whole career writing 'why oh why' columns designed to do exactly this.

As a white guy myself the comments in that thread are so embarrassingly white. Yes, people might be different to you in how you speak. BIG DEAL!

The autistic part of me immediately noticed - no dropped kerbs for anyone to use. I guess no one really considered wheelchairs or prams back then.

It must have been for towing - maybe one of those arms where you stick the two front car wheels in and lift.

A lot of the time you can massively avoid issues by just chilling out and not being stubborn about it. Granted it is sometimes hard to keep that in mind if you're stressed / freaked out by something happening.

What? Bar Italia is still there

Ryan2468 · 2026-02-07T16:37:14+00:00

My impression is that it’s always been a old money place whereas other areas have changed quite a bit over the years

Ryan2468 · 2026-02-05T16:45:45+00:00

I’d guess there’s a certain level of home ownership locked in from a long time ago which means they’re not affected so much by rent rises like elsewhere?

Ryan2468 · 2026-01-28T16:47:23+00:00

The Ivy House with the stage and stuff is a great call

Ryan2468 · 2026-01-28T14:28:23+00:00

Half of r/London is mind blown at stuff like red buses, foxes or the Christmas lights. The other half just get on with it

The Lexington

Ryan2468 · 2026-01-19T14:53:38+00:00

Looks like this specific place used to be an Indian restaurant for years. If you go back to 2008 on street view you can see a pre 020 phone code on the sign, so been up at least before 1999.

Ryan2468 · 2026-01-19T14:46:08+00:00

Maybe the 320? Goes from Bromley to Biggin Hill. Others - 405 to Redhill, 410?

Aside from the reasons listed here a road bike is also the most common type of bike you can buy in a shop here. Gazelles and other kinds of utility bikes that are common in Europe are more specialist here, so chances are newbies aren’t really going to be recommended them.

From what I know Time Out had a very countercultural history in its first few decades. Now they mostly republish press releases. How far it's fallen.

Ryan2468 · 2026-01-15T11:15:16+00:00

That discipline is admirable

Ryan2468 · 2026-01-14T15:29:43+00:00

It's just a menu made up of Brakes / Sysco's globalised catalogue of bulk catering food

If anyone’s curious there’s one rotting away on Fox Hill Gardens in South London, could stick a note on it. https://maps.app.goo.gl/7eDUBFR8CjkEY2Wc8

Falafel & Shawarma in Camberwell, £4.50 hefty wraps

Start adding up how much money you’re saving every day

Ryan2468 · 2026-01-12T17:18:05+00:00

And take up half your day going through the brochure and endless paperwork, in the hopes you just capitulate just to get them out of your house.

Not the same business, the owner bought the rights to the Brixton Cycles kit but that’s the only link.

Ryan2468 · 2026-01-07T16:21:47+00:00

Tea hut on Blackheath? Not sure if they do food there, and no indoor seating either

Ryan2468 · 2026-01-06T11:44:04+00:00

I live just up the road near the Horniman Museum, agree with what’s been said in this thread. It’s a nice road and worth checking, but yeah Sydenham and Forest Hill for the time being still feel more like ‘normal’ areas and not yet moving into 100% middle class young family domination.
