I noticed that too ....

Not the usual cat fight type thread we normally use this section for, but that rarest of gems: an entertaining written, insightful, very detailed post. It's about the cynicism of recycling in our fair borough. (Warning: may be tl;dr for some.)

I took it as a joke - isn't it?

There are dozens of companies that do Bespoke Parties for small children.. 5th Birthdays..

..and many people use this service..


List of children?s show ideas


Children?s entertainers

Magic shows

Puppet show

Mini disco (including limbo dancing, conga, dancing competitions)

Rocket balloons

Balloon modelling

Bubble machines and snow machine

Clowns


Cannot see a problem or have I missed something..

I guess I can see why people with the money to do so would want to hire someone to arrange everything for them so they didn'[t have to make up 30 party bags, hire the bouncy castle, sort out invites and so on (can you tell my daughter's 5th is coming up?). If that's all it really is, then fair enough, it's like having a personal shopper (another thing I'll never have).


But just the use of the word bespoke makes it sound so ludicrous before you've even started.

Balloon modelling? Get real Foxy. We're talking My Little Pony..for real!

It's like stag do's. Gone are the days when you went to the Nag's Head with your mates, got leathered and ended up tied to the nearest lamp post naked. Now we have long weekends shooting wild boar in the Black Forest*

One-Upmanship is everywhere I tell ya...

    • Fabulous - need some citric acid for the toilets - will pop in there.
    • Another review about a plasterer & handy man called Omar. Very professional, clean and up to standards. He’s done a couple of works in my flat, plastering, tiling & rendering. As you can see not easy task for someone of us, but he managed to do all of it and all turned out amazing. Highly recommended    His number is 07535 651443
    • When mine was stolen I tracked it to Dog Kennel Hill Sainsbury's car park, where it sat for several hours, and then over to a phone shop on Rye Lane in Peckham. Police thought they likely stash them somewhere in the car park until they have a few to drop off. It's literal schoolkids, so even worse in the holidays.
    • Saw the aftermath of another phone theft on east dulwich grove by trio last night. Then half an hour later spotted them biking back to 'work'. Crazy the police can't do anything about this - they are clearly cruising the same streets.
