SE22 places you've never been in

Recommended Posts

Nero,


Whilst you are not missing out on anything special by not going into Le Moulin (unless you count having your vegetables dished up for you, after your main has arrived as special) I wouldn't go out of your way. Come to think of it that style of service is rather special...


However, I've said it before, the Guinness in The Castle is excellent, if that is your tipple of choice.


Places I've never been:


Any bookies

Amusement arcade

The bathroom/sink/tap shop

Jojomamanbebeetcetc

any of the greasy spoons

the weird little basement shop underneath one of the greasy spoons, next to The Palmerston

The Irish Shop

Most of the Chemists / pharmacies

The Eco Shop

Speedo Pizza

The Gun Shop

The Mexican Restaurant

Inside 72

All of the curry houses except for Tandoori nights (once - never again. Quite poor and over priced).

The Hi-fi shop


There must be more...


E2A:


Blue Mountain

Chandelier

Foxtons

Dominos pizza

All of the shops on Grove Vale, except the jerk chicken shop and the afro barbers.

There are loads of key ED establishments I've never been in :-$


Green & Blue

Franklins

The Plough

Chener Books

Tandoori Nights

The Irish Shop

Mrs Robinson

Moxons

Any of the kids shops/maternity type places

The drum


Places I've only ever been in once:

ED Deli - ?3.50 for a loaf of bread. Say no more...

Dr Boo - too many free beauty products from work to buy any more

The weird little basement shop under the Palmerston

Blue Brick Cafe - Nero go there for breakfast. I thought it was good, suitably unponcy and the portions were decent

Inside 72 - damn I felt cool

Sea Cow


I really want to go to the vintage shop on Upland Rd. Used to live round the corner so not sure why I never went in


There's a gun shop Horsebox??

embellina, yes there is a gun shop. I think it's on the same block as Moxons, Franklins etc. It's more of an antique weaponry shop but calling it a gun shop has a more startling effect;-)


and ????, how do you know that these places are overrated and overpriced if you have never been in them, hmmm?

Oh dear, I seem to have gone in most places except for half the hairdressers, the slightly weird looking chemist/health/new age shop near Raylons, and the radio shop with the charming red & white fence, Inside 72, The Castle and The Vale and the Constitution Club and to date have only patronised one curry house (this will be amended).


I have danced a quickstep with a leprechaun inside St Thomas More Hall. Honest.

You're never too old, Gerrard. Besides, looks like the place is selling up so go try it while you can.

    • I don't know how spoillable food can be used as evidence in whatever imaginary CSI scenario you are imagining.  And yes, three times. One purchase was me, others were my partner. We don't check in with each other before buying meat. Twice we wrote it off as incidental. But now at three times it seems like a trend.   So the shop will be hearing from me. Though they won't ever see me again that's for sure.  I'd be happy to field any other questions you may have Sue. Your opinion really matters to me. 
    • If you thought they were off, would it not have been a good idea to have kept them rather than throwing them away, as evidence for Environmental Health or whoever? Or indeed the shop? And do you mean this is the third time you have bought chicken from the same shop which has been off? Have you told the shop? Why did you buy it again if you have twice previously had chicken from there which was off? Have I misunderstood?
    • I found this post after we just had to throw away £14 of chicken thighs from Dugard in HH, and probably for the 3rd time. They were roasted thoroughly within an hour of purchase. But they came out of the oven smelling very woofy.  We couldn't take a single bite, they were clearly off. Pizza for dinner it is then. Very disappointing. 
    • interesting read.  We're thinking about the same things for our kids in primary school as well. One thing I don't understand about Charter ED is whether they stream / set kids based on ability.  I got the impression from an open evening that it is done a little as possible. All i could find on-line was this undated letter - https://www.chartereastdulwich.org.uk/_site/data/files/users/18/documents/9473A8A3547CCCD39DBC4A55CA1678DC.pdf?pid=167 For the most part, we believe in mixed ability teaching and do not stream in Year 7 or Year 8. The only exceptions to this are that we have a small nurture class for Maths. This is a provision for students who scored lower than 85 in their SATS exams and is designed to support them to acquire the skills to access the learning in mainstream class. We do not have nurture classes for any other subjects. We take a more streamed - though not a setted - approach in Maths and Science from Year 9 onwards. though unsure if this is still accurate reflection of policy, and unsure of difference between streaming and setting.
