Some of them don't even tell you they're not working, just swallow your card make 'thinking' noises, and then spit your card out again with no cash.

Just thought I'd revive this thread and have a dig at the shitty Tesco Express on E Dulwich Rd. It's two aisles deep and it really has nothing in it.

Banned from this weird army shop. Customer was in front demanding a refund for something, and the cashier just wasn't having it - repeatedly pointing to some sign that was no more than a laminated scrap piece of paper that had "no refunds" on it. So there I was waiting in line and minding my own business, when the guy suddenly turns on me and asks "here, would *you* notice that?" whilst pointing at the sign. Being the honest kid I used to be, I instinctively said "no" - immediately realising what a mistake I'd made when it was my turn to be served. Cashier wasn't happy, he took my money and let me pay for my item but he told me I was no longer welcome. I was heartbroken. I fricking loved that army shop :(

Spot a guy with a beard and 9 times out of 10 he's a cyclist.

Hmm never heard of these guys -- really varied sounds according to their Wikip: > wide range of musical styles including surf rock, Persian, Arab, Indian, death metal, film music, electronic music

I did start to legitimately troll towards the end. It was a shitty week. Apologies

Make sure to have all your gear ready when they announce the station, because for some reason it's announced late and you have something like 20 seconds before the doors open. If you're heading to the snowdome, it's another 30 min walk.

oh yeah

Indeed - and you all forgot to pay the toll. Yeah I was off about the pubs, I never really notice the others except the Palmerston. Anyway, as I was saying:- RAAAAAGGEEEE

Then a friend introduced me to Canada's new national anthem (awaiting approval *cough*) and I sort of began to understand the layering. Am now working my way back through his early stuff

I regret moving here. At least in shoreditch you could get a decent meal and a blowjob all under a tenner. I mean it was full of white hipster thick-rimmed bearded-cyclist Gordon Freeman lookalike fluff who spent half their income on rent, but at least the area kept all the basic amenities cheap. Here... it's the same crowd I guess but the area offers nothing but twatty charity shops, a single overpacked pub, a multitude of mostly empty indoor dining restaurants (and "takeaways!"), and a Saturday market that doesn't understand what a market actually is. God bless the corner shops, the shitty chicken shop, and bless that hardware store guy who stocks everything and its mother at almost amazon prices. Love that guy, wish he'd return my calls .
