Went to this today and came away with a bagful of second hand books and some excellent plants, all for a few quid. As always at this time of year the gardens looked fabulous and everything smelt wonderful after the rain. Can't believe I live near such a gorgeous place. |

Yes I agree Roz wonderful place. There was one unsavoury incident about 10.50 when an over eager punter started handing the nic nacs. The Gentleman from Horniman's Friends asked the lady ( I use the word loosely )to wait until 11.00 , then her husband , remonstrated that he should F off and leave his wife alone. Why do we have such unsavoury people attending such events. Cannot they stick to Lidl's |

Smashing sale. My wife collected together an armful of books and then ordered me to pay the man. £1, for all those words......bargain. |

Glad all you people from the wrong side of the tracks appreciated visiting Horniman Heights, although I am always relieved when you go back North down the hill (particularly the aforementioned charming couple). Considering the weather was so awful a good turn out - it all looked very gentrified and I did not try to identify anyone from this site. I would imagine that if someone was offensive as reported that that Park had the right to object them. BD tried this in the Peckham 6 when a couple decided to have a loud conversation and then became aggressive when I suggested that they retired to the pub. Staff were quite obliging. |
