When some ignorant self righteous mother on a phone, who you've just stepped out of the way for to let her and her oversized pram pass by on the narrow footpath of Adys RD, refuses to acknowledge your goodwill by saying thankyou, kiss your arse or anything else. Ignorant cow. Bugger off back to Clapham!

Or maybe in the spirit of the thread, I was acknowledging a recent experience with a loud ignorant person (who I've met more than once over recent years in ED) who was knowingly ignorant for no apparent reason? Slightly tongue in cheek, in the spirit of the thread, and also partially serious. Why not contribute to the thread rather than concern yourself with my opinions? Very predictable and yawn. Clearly presses a button when I talk about the elephant in the room.

Come off it - your recent experience is one thing but fabricating it into yet another tired old rant on your favourite topic is another.


What do you hope to achieve - to drive out of SE22 anyone who wasn't born there? And then what do you do for doctors, teachers, restaurants and shops? Or is it just about spreading bad feeling?

It is my recent experience - it's not fabricated. What's your point? You're the one turning it into a rant because you can't resist the option to goad me further on a comment on a fairly light hearted topic, which I've already admitted is partially tongue in cheek. If you're having a crap weekend don't take it out on me. Try contributing to the thread, instead of making a mountain out of a molehill about my post. Shame you don't invest that time pulling up others on this forum who say some pretty direct and horrible things to others. I am NOT looking for a argument here, just wish to be left alone.

I don't think that scenario would suggest I was in SE22 particularly.

Mine was similar, the morning after I moved in I went to Blue Mountain for breakfast, and upon opening the door heard the immortal words Tarquin, hurry up and finish off your croissant!. I knew then things would never be the same again...

Ha. When was that? I think we've had one of those moments. You're playing with fire if you try to separate ours from her croissant and babyccino.

...all the while moaning about how Old Mr Grace had lost sight of his working class principles and was pandering to the stupid pretentious 'new' locals by charging 2 and 6 for a jacket... "what sort of 'look at me, look at my posh new jacket', blow-in idiot would pay such inflated prices?"... yada yada yada...

      Food poisoning at Dugard & Daughters - twice!

      By Penguin68 · Posted

      Please understand that I am not doubting the word of anyone who has posted here with problems with bought-in prepared meat, but (I am old) uncooked meat (perfectly 'good' meat) does smell often, we are too used to shrink wrapped and chilled supermarket meat which can be almost scent free - so we are surprised when 'butcher's' meat does smell (and often, if it is uncooked, quite strongly). Indeed game which is high can smell quite strongly, and not in a good way to our 21st C sensibilities, without being off - as in food poisoning off. Certainly prepared meat, when cooked, should smell enticing, and not at all bad - so the experiences quoted above are certainly very worrying - but younger people reading this should not be concerned, particularly, if fresh (raw) meat they have bought from e.g. a proper butchers has a smell to it. Which is not to say that something which smells rank shouldn't be a point of complaint. Even the smell of high-ish game, if left unwrapped, should dissipate once unwrapped. If it increases however it may be  cause for concern. But raw beef or lamb in the joint can often smell of something which isn't necessarily particularly nice, without it being worrying. It will tend to cook with more flavour.
