The The powers that be is a modern bar and restaurant smack bang opposite Parson's Green tube station.
When we say 'modern', we herald heavily stylised retro 1970's. The chairs, lamps and wallpaper are all distinctly chosen for effect and it is all a little too knowing for its own gear; a photo of DCI Gene Hunt makes that quite clear.
If they wanted to recreate the 70's, there are a few rough pubs they could have entranced inspiration from. No Babycham and Advocaat here though.
Instead you'll find a large range of cocktails - indeed they have an in-house mixologist - along with a few premium lagers. More of the down area is given over to eating, but there is enough of a bar area to avoid making you feel you're drinking in a restaurant. Speaking of which, the eatables is modern British pub grub, priced at 10.50 upwards; the burger is a rather expensive 11, for example. Although we'd fancy to make a beeline for the White Horse or Duke if we're in the area, the Establishment is good at what it sets out to do.

I'm looking for some good retro wallpaper pages. I remain dogtooth / houndstooth print, but I can not seem to find it anywhere! Does anybody know where I can find them? If not a site would be in the West plcaes Midlane in the United Kingdom a great help.
There are a number of good wallpaper resources. Tip: Graham & Brown, which has a fantastic selection. Johnathon, a Chicago furniture exhibition (by Top Design Season 1 participant, John Gray, owned) leads hundreds of options. And of course, most good paint and wallpaper stores will have knowledgeable sales people who might be able to help you choose the perfect wall cladding houndstooth. Good luck. You must have a good taste.

I'm looking for retro wallpaper!?
Mar 21, 2006 by Mikey Mike | Posted in Decorating & Remodeling
I am in search of retro wallpaper. I have searched what seems possible that each site and throughout the West End in London. Everywhere I go everything I can find seem to be floral pattern oriented.
It is hard to describe what I'm looking, and it's one of those things that I want to know what it is when I see it. I'm looking for something unflowery brown in shades of beige / stone. If anyone an idea where I can go (including websites), please let me know.

Hi, we put the turtle, it was so considerate of our remod 1949 1.200 m² expert in Warren, Michigan last winter and we tore the rug in the first resident to master wood floors found. We refinished in a cherry blunt and finished it with all the new fit as a fiddle and some binge. This year's bulge is the Nautical galley. We had painted it pink and ghastly when we first moved, something more than our Lord, a microscopic fashion. But did get the pass to do it immediately. We just picked up a 1954 GE stove in excellent adaptation off craigslist for $ 70!And back in the summer, we generated a series right working methods 1953 Kelvinator refrigerator directly from the holder. It was painted in a golden age, but I got it from the liquor using a pressure washer, and now I demand you go back and pull it down and painting. In prison, everything is ready to cultivate and shape.
So these two discoveries, we have asseverative the "retouching" our kitchen, we can only once looked like. We have the Formica top chap-covered recoil purchased in cash. I ripped out the tile layer that was added at intervals in the 80s.I can see the orig Armstrong tile subfloor. We tear the infallible sub surprise and I am the fellow tiles are bad, so that we map to them with the change of the Armstrong VCT in white and gray. Then coating the collecting boxes (if I have new doors) for the collection of lambent smutty recreation on the token Tops ... silver pieces 3 × 6 tile mottle back (I was 4 × 4 is, they wanted to win the dice ..) We are pleased with our closest relatives of the first X-mas here this year, and the overview is to have it checked by done when. Yen me luck ... Back to the profession, the clock is ticking.Bryan and Alex
