    How are the suntans working out folks? :)
    ?

    I wouldn't so far as to call it a suntan, but with the colour I am now, I'd be less inclined to get a 'you're looking very pale' comment from my mammy!

    London Fields Lido is jammers all the time, my friends who live near there only ever go first thing in the morning, any other time and its just too busy.

    I think you can get them here, but they sold the rights to the name so Mighty Munch is what you want to look for.

    I cycle past the Strata tower in El and Castle errrr day - does anyone know why the turbines never move? Are they just a ridiculous gimmick?

    yeah but walkers dicked around with the flavours when they bought the name. the original stuff made by tayto is miles better.

    must stop gazing out the window nostalgically!!

    Check out the SE1 discussion forum for a long discussion on this from when it was opened. Undoubtedly a feature to promote acceptance of the planning scheme and some green washing. I've worked and/or lived in SE1 since 1996 and I still can't comprehend how they managed to sell Stata as a premium development. A poor location even within E&C, weird footplates for many of the flats, no outside space (communal or private) and features like the turbines which have the prospect of being costly (rather than generating power, they may simply have to be maintained).

    I've seen the actual Mighty Munch stuff in at least a couple of shops here, but it may be the same as proper Tayto ie bloody hard to find :(

    Thanks! What is it they're building next to it? What will they do with that horrible old estate opposite it? I'm just up the road in Camberwell now :)
