Yes there is a local pub which has this, but I can't remember which one either! 0% Guinness is brilliant. It actually tastes like the real thing 👍

I'm a bit confused by all this. I'm with Plusnet, and to the best of my knowledge I have had fibre for ages. Am I missing something here? ETA: Sorry, as you were. Apparently I can upgrade to a different kind of fibre. Duh 🙄

Forest always seemed very cramped, so it will be great for them to have more space.

I went into Poundland just to see if anything had changed since it opened. It struck me that quite a few of the things they are selling can actually be bought a lot cheaper elsewhere, eg tea lights, so I'm unclear quite what is the point. I did buy a bright yellow dustpan and brush for £1.25. Bargain (if it doesn't disintegrate the first time I use it 🤣)

Yes, that sounds right 👍

You could try Argos at the big Sainsbury's. They will take electronic stuff for recycling even if you haven't bought it there, but I don't know about electrical things. You could try phoning them?

That'll be a no, then 🤣

Or try the record shop in Camberwell Green that has replaced Rat Records. Cant remember what it's called, but the shop looks really cool!

I think James Barber, who used to be a good and very active Lib Dem councillor until he was sadly voted out, had something to do with it. I may be wrong. I don't know if he still posts on here.

Just seen a Red Admiral butterfly in the garden ❤️ First I've seen this year!

Just one part of our new (ish) website is not properly copying over to the mobile version (text colour of some subheadings) in just one section. I can't find a way to edit just the subheadings for mobile - I can change the font colour for all the text in the section, but not change it just for the sub headings. There's no problem with editing the subheadings in the desktop version, but the editing isn't copying across. It has done it fine in every other part of the website. Can anyone help? I'm not very familiar with Wix. The specific section is the top part of this page: https://www.thegooseisout.com/faq The subheadings should be in orange on the mobile version, as they are in the headings further down the page 🙄

What are the boundaries of the proposed zone/s, have they said?

I agree that it did, and for a long time I avoided the restaurants for that reason, but if the recent deliveries we have had are anything to go by, it has got back to how it was when it started out. We have had three or four and they have all been very good.

Yes I tried Vale, but they didn't have what I needed. Wish I had just got a bus and gone to Sadlers (that would have been my next option if Sogim hadn't had it). Lloyds in North Cross Road is my nearest pharmacy, but .....

The food there used to be ok a long time back, then it really deteriorated. Things like hummus and taramasalata tasted as if they had come from cheap catering packs. Don't know if it improved again, as I didn't go back. Their take away shish kebabs were better than Kebab and Stab, but I stopped eating meat so I don't know whether they deteriorated as well.

I normally get my prescription medication by post, but I needed to get a one off today. Having tried two pharmacies which didn't have it, I went to Sogim in Lordship Lane. I handed in the prescription and asked if they had it in stock, as if not I would try somewhere else. After about half an hour (sic) during which a stream of people came and went, several with issues concerning the non ordering or non arrival of their own prescriptions, and at least one reaching the end of their tether, I was finally asked my address and a package handed to me. Having gone a little way down the road, I glanced at the package label and found I had been given someone else's prescription. Same first name, completely different surname and address, and - obviously - the wrong medication. What on earth is going on here? What is the point in asking your address if it's not actually checked before they hand over the medication? Why were about two thirds of the customers there with complaints? What other mistakes might be being made which could have more serious consequences? I'm interested to know if anyone else has had a similar experience or if I just went in there when they were having a bad day. I will never use Sogim again unless I absolutely have no choice 🙄 Oh, and parents. If you are going to let your child put a toy from the bin by the counter in their mouth, blooming buy it, don't just put it back in the bin and give your child another one. And then let your child do the same with about three other toys 😡 and buy none of them And yes, I did say something to the parent. The assistant didn't seem in the least concerned. Rant over.

We've been getting Wagamama deliveries from the Forest Hill kitchen, and they have been excellent. But I hope it won't affect Monkatsu's trade, because I really like their food (though haven't tried the sushi).

Thanks Joe!

Is it possible to have a second forum name which my partner and myself could both use specifically to post information about our Goose Is Out! events? We aren't a business as such, but we would like to separate it from our personal posts on here. Is that allowed?
