Mooched around for a while but nobody seemed to want to smile, let alone engage in conversation :( Maybe it was obvious we were just curious, and probably not potential customers :(

Calperson Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > I read that the > Dog is becoming a 'boutique hotel' - surely not > what we need down there. xxxxxx That rumour's been around for ages. They keep putting in planning applications and they keep being turned down. Please let that keep on happening (the turning down) as my stress levels won't stand having to find yet another new venue for http://www.thegooseisout.com :))

That's awful. Not just animals, but children with soft-soled shoes could be hurt. What a truly vile thing to do. I can't see any way at all that they could be there accidentally.

Deliverance, based in Herne Hill. Wide variety of food (Thai, Indian, Chinese, American, Italian, can't remember the rest), delicious, and you can order and pay for the whole lot online. And then check what stage it's got to (being cooked, being packed, on the way etc). They deliver delicious puds as well. And wine. They only deliver to certain postcodes though, and for SE22 I think it's SE22 8** and SE22 9**

I remember Never on a Sunday, don't remember Cool for Cats. When was that?

Thanks for the > Warning. xxxxxx To be fair to Il Mirto and places like it, they are both relatively cheap and relatively small, and probably can't afford to have people taking up a table for hours who aren't spending very much money or they'd very soon go bust. They've already had their fingers burned at that place they started in Nunhead (Esmerelda, was it? Something like that).

Cool! Is that this weekend?

Thanks! Yes they do look good, must go and see them "in the flesh" before the nights get too light!

Anyone got a pic of the lights? I haven't seen them :)

I think it's the one which always makes me laugh because the angel (I think it is) in the window is so out of proportion it looks as if it's had its legs chopped off. Sorry if in bad taste. Presumably Brockley has an older population than ED if it's got four :)) ETA: Or else some dodgy restaurants ..... or bad drivers .....

It's not all cheap pizzas and processed food - you can just avoid those. And the checkout people are lovely.

The "new" Moo Too?

Thanks James, my claws are now back in :)

:)) :)) :)) It's quite easy. James's post at 1.50pm on 5 March is still saying that the Co-Op has applied to sell alcohol 24/7. But do feel free to do the frying pan thing. Can we come and watch? ETA: The reason I'm continuing in this way - which is obviously very irritating to everybody else - is that there is still misinformation on the thread, and whilst the apology is welcome, it hasn't actually altered that fact.

The post which needed to be edited was the one you posted at 1.50pm on 5 March, which I have quoted above. That was the one which caused all the confusion, not your original post. The confusion was caused because of the part I have put in bold above, which was wrong. That wrong information is still being shown on this thread, and it was clear previously that people were reading that post without reading the rest of the thread, and hence continuing the confusion. I hope that's clear? Sorry, but it was that post which was the problem all along, and it's still there.

Franklins do a veggie breakfast variant, or did do.

Re: Lordship lane Co-op wants to open 24/7 Posted by James Barber March 05, 01:50PM Hi worldwiser, The Co op have appleid to extend existing licence from 6am-10pm to 5am-11pm and applied for a second licence to sell alcohol 11pm to 5am. Effectively they can sell 24hours. Any review of licences could include cnditions around deliveries. So if I were you I'd contact the licensing officers and state that deliveries are an issues and ask for conditions aorund times of deliveries. I've not been able to track down any planning conditions about times of opening or deliveries. I've asked officers if they have any recorded. hope this helps. Regards james.

Erm, I think Jeremy was joking :))

This is so disappointing - I have been reading a book about London folklore, which is mainly about ghosts (or rather, stories of supposed ghosts) and when I saw the thread title I thought it was the hearse itself which was a phantom hearse :))

Are there really going to be enough ice cream eaters for ED to support TWO ice cream shops? Not forgetting Hope and Greenwood's very yummy and excellent value ice cream?! What will happen to ScoopED?

James Barber Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Hi Sue, > I didn't spot your comment before now and it's > late. So I'll check it out tomorrow and come back > to you. xxxxxxx So what is the result of your checking out? Has the Co-Op applied to sell alcohol 24 hours or not? The evidence - including the attachment to your own original post on this thread! - suggests not, in which case should you not be correcting your subsequent post on this thread before your misinformation becomes even more entrenched in people's minds?

Do they not like children around at all then, or not where they can be seen from the street? Where do they draw the line?
