Community Internet cafe

Something which has always intruiged me in London is the typical internet cafe. On the continent and in some parts of the US/Australia I've been too, I've seen and sat in huge places that have large communities of gamers, or general groups of people just chilling. The closest I used to know was Cyberzone in Croydon but thats long since closed its doors.

I even saw one in Ireland last week. I was curious as to whether Sydenham has one or if there's such a place in London? I know there is a place near Greggs, opposite the car dealership but I've only been in there once or twice.

There are, but they are pretty grotty. I know the ones you mean in the US.

Sydenham library has free internet access if you need it.

How about a cyber pub? [No, not a cider pub...Though I have no objections...]
Brilliant idea, what?
The Twice Halfwit could be converted.
Beer-proof keyboards [or merely covered with plastic sheeting]
Alcohol-friendly screens.
Folk [drinkers/customers] emailing one-another rather than having to listen to half-cut idiotic blathering.

Folk giving vent to opinions and letting off steam [etc] on Sydenham Town Forum while quaffing sundry liquids in the 'company' of fellow red-eyed cyber-addicts.

Just [beer..] floating an idea...?
