Oh dear.


Speaking of which, I couldn't help noticing that 'Moo 2' (or whatever it's called) is selling a bag which actually has 'YUMMY MUMMY' printed on the outside.


If anyone out there has actually bought this item, hang your heads in shame.

I haven't actually been in there in all fairness. Which makes me wonder who on earth actually does, given that I have had beggar all else to do for the last year I have been on maternity leave other than spending my husband's money. Who IS buying their tat then?

No, it's such a pointless shop, IMO snorky. And I have been in there, but as is always the case with shops like this (and ED in Northcross Rd is another dire example of a shop selling pointless plastic tat) I just browse due to boredom and NEVER buy. Give me a vintage or second hand shop any day.


I am concerned that this new shop 'Sugar' is going to be yet another trinket shop; still, beats another estate agent I suppose.


I have a vested interest now I am not moving from ED. Nobody seems prepared to pay the exorbitant cost that my house is going for - and I can't blame 'em.

This is no ordinary mini-whisk, Spangles. It's "a steam-free milk frother" which "takes just 20 seconds to turn a small amount of hot or cold milk into a perfect froth"


Can you imagine doing such a thing of an afternoon? Couldn't your time be put to better use? (Like, say, slamming your fingers in the fridge door several times and then tipping a bowl of jelly on your head?)

Hilarious Bob. Yes I'll take the slamming my fingers in the fridge and tipping a bowl of jelly over my head option.


Anyway, my coffee machine froths milk, though I never bother with it.


I believe Moo also has Alessi products; in my opinion garish plastic tat from Italy at huge cost.

    • 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.
