Used to eat here when I lived in Cambers but will happily go out of my way now I'm in ED. Just don't ask if they have anything 'ready'.. ! The owner will take offence (saw a guy get his ear chewed off!)
  2. Wouldn't class my critisicm as 'a real grievance' but nor is it complaining for complaining's sake. I love having a cinema in ED. I just find it slightly disappointing when they take up a 3rd of their screens with a celeb biography.
  3. Surely if you only have 3 screens you'd be more careful to rotate? Amy for a month is pretty shite tbh.
  4. Join hands and stand in a circle sort've thing?
  5. Fancy watching the latest Terminator. Cheesy I know, but fun, mindless cinematic entertainment for an evening. Our picturehouse isn't showing it. Instead, one of it's three precious screens is showing.. Amy (Amy Winehouse documentary). Also available for viewing this evening is.. Love & Mercy (a biography of Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys). I like a bit of Beach Boys as much as the next person, but really?
  6. I'm sure anyone posting on this forum is aware of, and able to use, Google search. However posting on the forum comes with the added benefit of letting everyone know what you're doing! #altruism?
  7. I could do that, or as I think some others do which is have the shirts ironed locally. Just dropping off and picking up 5 shirts each week... but if there's a way of bringing in a shirt daily I'd go with that. The cycling part is great it's just the faff that puts me off
  8. Thanks Wulf I'll look into the Ortliebs. I did used to use a pannier, maybe it was my shirt folding technique but they always seemed to collapse in the bag and come out wrinkled!
  9. What do people do about work shirts etc? Iron at home and bring them in folded somehow? Daily? Weekly? Have them done somewhere near the office, keeping them hung-up at work? Love the cycling but always found messing around with shirts 'n' suits to be a pain in the a!
  10. Hi all, I just want to add a recommendation for Silvano (although he doesn't speak Mandarin as far as I know). I passed first time on Monday with only 3 minors! He was always very patient and easy-going, and was able to bring my driving up to a high standard from no experience at all. Best of all I'm confident in my driving now that I've passed and making the most of it already! Email: [email protected]

Sly Father Ted reference, appreciated
  13. Amongst all the stories and "beliefs" on this thread, to my mind the least scientific statement made was to give 100% assurance that something doesn't exist. A healthy state of agnosticism is probably best

Agreed, I think the alcohol supply is more important
  15. Not to dismiss the possibility; but surely attending a spiritualist church for a few years shows some kind of pre-disposition towards 'other worldly' activity which might explain the recent "unexplained activity"? Sorry to pi55 on the bonfire.
  16. I heard what must've been the same noises that night, same time. I'm near the Great Exhibition pub. Also familiar with the usual fox wailing but this stood out as being different. Didn't hear any of the thumping sound though, maybe too far away.
  17. Same for me. The outages do seem to be timed to perfection though... it meant I left a transaction uncommitted for about 2 hours (any DBAs out there can appreciate the pain!)
  18. It's back up, at least for now... I called Virgin about 30 mins ago and got the same 2.30am estimate, but looks ok at the moment
  19. Took my parents out for a roast at the Duck Egg today and the everyone agreed the food was amazing! Also v good value; think it was ?12.95 for the roast beef - an unusually decent portion and they got my 'medium rare' just right. BYOB saved us a few quid too. Very satisfying meal and will be back for sure! Haven't been to ToastED so can't compare.. yet.
