Jah Lush

Me neither.

It's Jah Lush and I want my cup.

You don't half talk a load of old bollocks. Your shtick has become terminally dull.

I remember when it was two bars. It wasn't that warm then either. You're right about the owner's attitude to staff.

"Average eateries" - Bromley = average shops. Same difference. DH. The Bishop isn't my cup of tea but I do recall being in there a few years ago and a couple of girls I'd got talking to had come all the way over from Sutton to be there. I couldn't believe it. Mind you, Sutton isn't that great either. But coming all the way from Sutton to drink in The Bishop, well, I was speechless.

Sorry, cross posted. God, I wish I hadn't.

Good grief! Words almost fail me. I don't know any 'anonymous' restaurants on Lordship Lane, Louisa. They all have a names. Could you elucidate for us?

Fair dos. Point taken.

It is. I agree wholeheartedly. Unfortunately, I believe that's the going rate for Moretti these days. I think The Great Exhibition charges the same price. Correct me if I'm wrong though.

Wahey!

Yeah, I think the English translation would be 'bundle'. Pronounced BUNDOOOOOOOOOOL!

Expensive! You want a vulgar display of wealth do you? I doubt the old lady cares either way. And why should she.

It's Tony's pub and I guess he can do what he likes and if that's slurping lager on his perch at the bar with his family and friends whilst the staff beaver away then so be it. It's quite simple really. You can choose to go there or not go there. Personally speaking I mostly choose not to.

Dear Ms Blueberry, Shabby chic is all the rage these days is it not? I think it blends in rather well. The old lady who lives there is bang on trend. Gawd bless her.

Good spot. I'm going in.

In my current financial plight it most certainly will.

Yep! Better up my dosage.

I was alluding to your three-nil prediction.

What Alan said and shouldn't you be rejoicing in your victory rather than having a go at your rivals? Now, here's a thing you won't see too much of - a Spurs fan praising the Arsenal - I thought your team did yourselves proud yesterday. It's refreshing that a top club like Arsenal take the FA Cup seriously, it has not been forgotten in some quarters that Man United once opted out of the competition to pursue the World Club Championship and were knocked out early against lowly opposition this season. I'd like to congratulate Arsene Wenger on his six triumphs in the competition, a feat that I very much doubt will be equalled by many others and one in the eye for those so-called football fans, many of whom who support the club, that his time was up (yourself included PD, if I recall correctly). And what a goal from Sanchez, a magnificent strike worthy of winning such a prestigious competition or any other come to think of it. It has to be said though that Aston Villa apart from not turning up, simply weren't good enough. Anyway, congratulations and enjoy your gloating, especially at work on Monday. *Nurse, the screens please*

I shall miss Iceland and all its bargains and the friendly staff too. When you're short of a few bob and you need to stock up on essentials Iceland has always been a good place to go to where your pounds can stretch that bit further. Not everyone in East Dulwich is loaded and I'm sure I'm not the only one who shall miss the convenience of it being there on Lordship Lane.

So, Lady G, did you curse Giroud when he tapped in the fourth? ;-)

What a dystopian nightmare! Pubs are, or certainly should be, the social hub of the community and are for imbibing and generally having fun, not 'working' in, taking up space from drinkers and merry makers alike.
