Ah-ha - are we out-ing the cloak as punishment? Splendid... I've always thought of out-ing as a serious forum crime, but a fun twist to use it as punishment for other serious crimes.


the cloak - if that is, in fact, your real name - a cursory glance at any thread on this site demonstates that keef and the above objectors basically are the forum.


Poorly thought out move, I'd say...

Polly D you are posting again! Does this means that you have settled into your new job? :)


Cloakie - have you learned your lesson now? This isnt anti-social forum. We LIKE each other, we argue and bicker but we dont slag each other off, much.

Quite, assuming that you have correctly interpreted Lozzyloz's post as anti SE5 snobbery, that is. I had hoped for a less hurtful explanation.


At least you are prepared to post honestly though rather than just ass kiss your fellow forumites.


Are you The Cloak *Bob*?

Me? The Cloak? Alas no. I would have been electronically outed by now.

You're right about the ass-kissing though. I do sometimes feel it my duty (along with a few Notable Others) to fly the flag of sarcasm, humbug and general misery amidst a sea of self-congratulatory backslapping.


Regards,

I would argue that "Numpty" is something of a term of endearment. Like, you're a bit silly but I like you anyway. As for "the biggest sausage", not really heard that one before, although I guess it could be like "you silly sausage" which again has slightly playful connotations.


Making out that someone works in SE5 though, that's bang out of order.

I disagree, Al. I think 'wally' also has endearing connotations. As in "ee's a bit of a wally, but ee's awright really"


However, if I were to say, for example, "ALAN DALE IS A BIT OF A PLONKER", (not that I would, of course), I think that would be slightly more derogatory.

      Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x

      Be careful in local shops

      By Sue · Posted

      People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.

      Adapted not forced.  As have numerous species around the world.  Sort of thing that Attenborough features.  Domestic dogs another good example - hung around communities for food and then we become the leader of the pack.  Not sure how long it will take foxes to domesticate, but some will be well on their way.    Raccoons also on the way https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j8j48e5z2o

      Excellent Christmas meal at Franklins!

      By Jenijenjen · Posted

      My memory, admittedly not very reliable these days, places the shop on the block on the left hand side just before Burgess Park going towards Camberwell. Have also found a reference to Franklins Antiques being located at 157 Camberwell Road which is on that block. This is a screen shot obtained from Google maps of that address which accords with my memory except the entrance door was on the right hand side, where the grey door is, rather than in the centre.
