There's a whole thread in the main section about food on public transport alongside a bloody buggy blocking a cafe door! I'm livid just browsing the comments. I can't cope. Stop eating on buses or trains! It's rude, unhealthy and antisocial. Stop blocking cafes/public spaces with prams! I'm so angry!

Ha ha! That is a funny/dangerous idea

Seabag if that is a genuine offer, I am flattered. I do get so excited about certain things. Need to calm down and live a little. As foxy knows only too well, if I posted here what I'd like to say I would probably get a little carried away and say some regrettable alcohol induced ramblings, about the woes of wealthy parents with prams in the public arena and/or a further and (possibly) more heated debate about the disgusting social habits of certain 'people' who fail to accept the social responsibilities that come with sharing space on transport. And I could go on. It's making me angry just typing this!


Louisa.

Not always. My ramblings are mostly genuine irks which continually bug me because the populace of ED seem incapable of adapting to the existing neighborhood and instead reinventing the entire area to suit their own ego-wealth driven ends. Not that I'm bitter, not that I'm currently sober either.


Louisa.

Agree with you Lou.

Am fed up that so many establishments that purport to be 'child friendly' are actually unfriendly to non-kid people. Places such as Johnnies Cafe, exhibition, cafe by peckham rye common etc are ridiculous in terms of allowing so many buggies, kids, disruption, rearranging tables. Middle class parents, if you cant be arsed to cook for your kids at home, or get the au pair to do it then dont take your kids out to lunch between 12-2pm because you spoil it and clog up venues for the people that work for a living having their lunch which is needed for fuel to carry on working. Eat at another time, you have plenty of it.

Venues-not only will you lose custom but you will be reported for blocking fire escspes if thats what you do with buggies eg the allegation by sue in other thread.

Licensed venues- you will be reported for allowing kids to order and pay for food at bar for the entertainment of mummy and her drunken friends. Yes, witnessed this at exhibition.

All venues-grow a pair and stop being bullied and dictated to by these prats.

BTW Sue and Jermery, dont use my name in your other little thread. I am not the poster you both are ganging up on but i so agree with him. Breastfeeding bullies that do it just to be provocative, do it at home.

Sue, re common sense and buggies blocking exits makes me lol as you dont mind blocking aisles and escape routes with chairs at your gigs if it means you sell more tickets!

Jermy, you are an utter fool. Is troll the word you use to describe people that have a different view to the one the guardian tells you to have? Troll suits you better.

If you are male, which i doubt, and you did it unnecesssrily and provocativly there would still be a problem. So your side stepping accusations are like most of your opinins-tomTIT.

I don't even know why I'm bothering answering you, but if you had ever been to one of our gigs you would know that we take health and safety very seriously and not only do we not block aisles and escape routes with chairs but we do not allow people to bring extra chairs into the room.


There is a legal capacity to the room and therefore a limit on how many tickets we can sell at our concerts, and we have never once gone over that limit even when we could have made a lot more money by cramming people in.


You really are a nasty little troll, aren't you?

You're getting muddled. Eating smelly, mess making food on public transport, including the new invention of 'crumbless' baguettes, and leaving the litter behind is a pig ignorant antisocial phenomemon. However the middle classes with their rice cakes in tupperware for baby Ruperts snackypoos is just them!

So, as long as people don't make a mess or leave litter, you're fine for them to eat on buses? Like everyone is.


And for the train services that sell you hot food, occasionally with a distinctive odour, to eat at your seat- you're OK with this too?

Yes and yes. The reason for the second yes is that food is only provided on lengthy train journies, not ED to LB! The

train food provider also provides adequate removal and storage of food waste, facilities to clean hands, and trains are much larger than buses where odours can dissipate faster.

So where have the aisles and escape routes ever been blocked with chairs, exactly? And when have we ever crammed people in to take more ticket money? Please give me examples.


Even at our club nights we have always turned people away as soon as the room became unsafely crowded.


We have never yet had to do that at a Singaround, which in any case (as you will know if you have been to one) are unticketed, but we would have done if the numbers got unsafely large.


I look forward to your response.


It's really worrying that somebody who posts such crap on here may be coming to our gigs :(


Our punters are generally really lovely people.

More importantly, why didn't Grok say something at the time if they're such a concerned citizen?

I'd go further and say it's creepy, Grok wants you to know that he/she knows who you are, but you don't know who he/she is...

Ah, gone are the days of drinking a six pack on the bus on the way to a gig somewhere in N London. Most people are responsible eating on the bus but I remember on the 176 a lady eating a large amount of fruit and dropping the skin and pips (and anything else she didn't want) on the floor below her for some other poor so & so to clear up. Where do we draw the line? Like booze it's probably easier to ban any eating on the bus. After all a bus is not a cafe or pub.


As for the breastfeeding, what on earth is the matter with you? Surely we have moved on? If you want a return to some prudish semi Victorian imagined Utopia, move to the USA and vote Trump.

    • Majority of reported hate crime is based on ethnicity, brown, black and mixed heritage. Religious hate crime is lower and most affects Muslims, Jews to a slightly lowers number and a small percentage of Hindus and Sikhs.   Real or perceived atrocities committed by Muslim extremists and the state of Israel will influence numbers  Anyone who has been to a protest against the war in Gaza will see mainly peaceful and good natured crowds including Jews against war. @CPR Dave stop making a fool of yourself. Corbyn cannot admit to being wrong.  He sprouted nonsense that Russia was not responsible for the Salisbury poisoning, would not be contrite about the accusations of anti-Semitism, and is partly to blame for Brexit. He may be principled and a decent person but is not a Messiah and ran a poor campaign in the 2019 general election, a gift for Johnson. I expect he would have been pants in dealing with COVID, and Johnson set a low bar. I'm with Miss Jean Brody on the Spanish Civil War.  It maybe not!
    • How does your mind work? This is a thread about a bakery that may be opening. Your grasp of history is extremely weak. Mosley’s fascists were opposed and defeated all over the east end, not with petitions either. The principal leadership in driving them back came from the Communist Party but it was a united, cross community movement. The Daily Mail provided constant support for the British Union of Fascists and, along with sections of the Conservative Party, echoed their racist rhetoric. Plus ca change, plus c’est la meme chose. Excuse my French. To characterise pro-Palestinian demonstrations attended by thousands of Jews among the hundreds of thousands of people from across British society as “protesting Jews’ rights to exist” or comparing them to Mosley’s blackshirts is frankly sickening. You should be utterly embarrassed and ashamed of yourself.
    • I really hope so too, but they aren't going to get much passing trade, and parking round there isn't easy. Fingers crossed.
    • What's your answer, then? Should the council raise council tax to employ double or treble or more the number of workers to spend all their time clearing leaves from every street every day? Leaves have been cleared from my street several times since leaf fall began, including as I say very recently. It's impossible to keep every street permanently clear, and the situation is made worse by heavy rain. My partner broke his ankle in several places a year or so back when he slipped on wet leaves. He didn't blame the council.
