Recent posts suggest that concern is mounting amongst residents at the prospect of chaotic scenes in Pennington Street caused by Mango's revelers.
If you are disturbed by the all-too-familiar noise nuisance or witness any criminality, please take the time to leave a comment on the blog.
Happy New Year? Well, it will be if we get the desired result at the Magistrates Court.

HOW CAN THIS KEEP GOING ON?
A local resident left the following comment on an older post:
"Friday 27th and Saturday 28th- Mangos patrons show the usual amount of respect by shouting, swearing, speeding down the street, fighting. Saturday was particularly bad with hundreds of people coming out of the club from 2:45am onwards. One group of around 10 drunk men stayed around the corner of Artichoke Hill sat in cars from 3:00am until 4:30am listening to loud music. No one from Mangos was there to move them on. I was unable to get back to sleep until they left. Another show of how little the owners of Mangos care about the surrounding residential area. HOW CAN THIS KEEP GOING ON!?"

Midweek Mango's Mayhem
In spite of the imminent hearing to decide the future of their alcohol license, Mango's has chosen to add to the disturbance suffered by local residents by opening a fortnightly student's night.
Here is one resident's view:
Here is one resident's view:
"Last night (Wednesday 29th September) was the opening night for a fortnightly student event at Mangos (http://www.mangos-london.com/) and I was woken at 2:00 with hundreds of drunk students flooding out of the nightclub blowing whistles, shouting, fighting and beeping car horns. This noise persisted until 3:00 meaning that I did not get a good nights sleep. No individual from the nightclub was present on the street. The next morning Artichoke Hill and Pennington Street was covered in alcohol bottles, fast food wrappers and sick."
As we move ever closer to Christmas the chances are that increasing numbers of residents will suffer disturbance caused by rowdy, drunken groups of youths leaving Mango's intent on anti-social behaviour.
As residents, our best possible chance of ending this nuisance will be at the Magistrates Court on 19 January 2010. We need to continue to collect evidence in support of our case. Mango's will no doubt assume that we will eventually get tired. We will not. We will eventually win.
If you suffer any late night noise, whether on Wednesdays or at the weekends, please leave a comment here.

Progress Report
A local resident left this comment:
"The last 2 weekends have been ridiculously busy and I've had cars parked right outside my house on both sides of the street. So much for the parking attendants, who seem to be there to observe the mayhem. I've been woken up at 4.30 in the morning by fights, screaming and cars beeping and revving. There is also the usual gangs of people hanging around on the corner of Artichoke Hill who stand about shouting after leaving the club. They never seem to be asked to leave by the "attendant" stood metres away. On the plus side, my sleep has been so badly affected I am able to get up at 4 in the morning and take lots of nice video footage of all this. I am expecting the next bank holiday to be horrific as always so I'm sure I will be forced to wake up and capture more of the same."
It seems clear that there have been no changes for the better over the past year.
To ensure that Mango's appeal fails we need to gather as much evidence as possible so please keep the comments coming.

Summer Bank Holiday - 31 August
The summer Bank Holiday will fall on the 31 August. Experience suggests that this will be a big weekend at Mango's. Residents should be aware that until we win the appeal Mango's will not be closed. If you are disturbed over the Bank Holiday weekend - or at any other time for that matter - please leave a comment on the blog.

Can this be legal?
A recent comment:
'Saturday night/Sunday Morning June 28. midnight to 5.00am. I was woken several times by shouting, by persons going to or leaving Mango's. I have to leave for work at 5.15am. I feel this is very unfair. I have also noticed flyers offering free admission and a 5,00am license. Can this be legal? '

Bank Holiday Weekend
A number of recent comments underline the fact that for residents the Mango's problem continues. We all know what the symptoms are. Equally, we are all aware of the treatment required, or, as a recent contributor put it, 'I hope this place gets shut dowon soon'.
Please continue to leave a comment. It could ensure that we get the right result at appeal.
