I walked past it last week and wondered what it was - now I know. Thanks.

> For families from Essex...three quid Coca-Colas are also available.
This member of the Essex diaspora was yesterday given 15l of slightly out-of-date cinamon-flavoured Coke (the real thing, not Panda Pops!) from Stockport's own out-of-date cash-n-carry, which cost the princely sum of a quid. And there were six packs of 'The Snowman' -themed chocolate cake mix, thrown in as a, err, sweetener. Later, inspired by this post, my kids and I will be retreating to our garden shed.

Why haven't patio heaters been banned by now ?
Everybody knows that they just send heat and burnt carbon straight up into the atmosphere.

A free-to-access elevated platform fairly adjacent to the stadium? I imagine that'll become an interesting spot before and after West Ham home matches!!

Fascinating, thankyou! I love the idea of an Austrian après-ski vibe, in the heart of London town. It has something of a "Hansel and Gretel" look to it. I wonder if gingerbread is served?

I have eaten there several times and found the food very good plus they serve a reasonable fixed price menu.

I’m imagining some poor soul toiling away at TfL over tube map revisions, cursing the unhelpful comments from bloggers, and looking across to the solitary figure atop the Haugen mega-chalet and thinking, what’s he up to, then?

I like the look and concept of the building, but am of the Guardian's opinion.
They'd better hope the tourists return soon!

Grace dent's review is a fantastic savaging of the concept. IS the public access to the top deck a condition of planning approval?

"Fondue. Fon-don't". Are you sure you're not Grace Dent? The word play is equally creative.

I'm filing that one away in my Stupid Questions With A Blindingly Obvious Answer folder, Stuart.

What pray tell is an "ironic enough Black Forest gâteau" supposed to be?

It is very possible to build timber buildings that are highly fire resistant. The concept is called Mass timber (two sorts: CLT for structure, and glulam for skinning/flooring/ceiling). Exposed faces are made of dense wood that chars before it combusts (after a few hours of persistent application of heat), paired up with fire suppression inside.
It does need careful specification, testing, engineering and materials quality control (exactly what was lacking from Grenfell).

The whole area looks very concretey, considering it's meant to be a park.
Are there no trees at all?

This bit of the QEOP is not very green, but a lot of it is - especially to the north of Stratford International and west of Cobham Manor.
