Kids getting their #Eid presents from Sam Pound Plus this year.

Actually there's a shop in #Dalston selling housewares and tat. It's just opposite the Dixy's and near the bus stop towards Stamford Hill. I got the water games (non licenced sanrio tat) and the London acrylic block for a quid from there; the tape measures and (licensed) Hello Kitty stationery from Sam; and the squishmallow was like a quid in the Sense charity shop up Bruce Grove. There was a bunch of them in new condition, some with tags, so I got three. I gave two to my niece last Eid. This year she can have the last one.

Yes I bought the boys tape measures because they lose or break everything anyway, and they actually like stuff like that.

Heads up that the Met is trialing this bullshit facial recognition system in front of Ridley Road Market & #Dalston Kingsland Station.

Can anyone decipher anything on this recently revealed ghost sign at 83 Dalston Lane, London E8.

Photo is cropped from the original shared with me by the publisher of our London ghost signs book, Max Leonard at Isola Press (https://www.isolapress.com). He's got one word/layer having 'SANITATION' but nothing more than that...

Man Sentenced to Life for Role in Dalston Gang Shooting that Injured Nine-Year-Old Girl

Javon Riley, 33, has been sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 34 years for his involvement in a gang-related shooting in Dalston, East London, that left a nine-year-old girl critically injured. Riley, who helped the shooter escape the scene, was found guilty of the attempted murder... [More info]

Probably not the day to suggest a change on the venerated London Transport / Underground map but ...

It's a short walk between Dalton Kingsland and Dalston Junction station. So why wouldn't there be a handy dotted line to show how you can walk (without rhythm) between them?
