Of course the secret handshake only really works when you get to the point at which you 'press the flesh'. It might be interesting to have a form of recognition that can be used more subtly, ie to satisfy curiosity as to whether someone you see in ED is an EDF user - without having to approach them formally with the words 'Do you post?' (which makes me feel like an extra from a black and white WW2 movie - and would be very embarrassing if the other party does not, in fact,How about post).

How about something more along the lines of nods, winks, etc - which of course could still make you look mad to the unenlightened - but would in any case be quite amusing to recount on the forum.

But without "flesh pressing" where would you draw the line with your "EDF tell"? nods and winks to everyone you walk past? You could surely be detained by a local Robert by the time you've walked from one end of LL to the other? Or are you talking once engaged in conversation with previously unknown persons?
I think a scratch of an earlobe should do it. You see someone you think they might go on the forum, look at them and scratch your ear, simple. No need for dubious nods, winks or spazmodic movements that could get you punched for being weird. As to what the reply could be, I don't know, a smile perhaps?

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
