OP - let me spell out for you what the other posters are hinting at. You registered on the forum TODAY and you start a post with 7 paragraphs praising a local hairdresser.


You can call us a bunch of cynics if you like but on the forum there is a history of people registering for the sole purpose of bigging up their own business/service/shop and we don't really like that.


You may be a great new forumite - in which case - very sorry, welcome to the forum, nice to meet you. But sorry hon, starting off eyebrows just get raised when people register and then immediately start threads about how good such and such a business is. Have a look at this howler from earlier in the week.

Horizon has deleted his posts now but you get the gist.


I hope you're genuine though and if so welcome to the forum.

No offence BoTB - I'm not accusing you of anything so need to defend yourself. It's just that you seemed confused by the initial response to the thread and I'm just pointing out why. The forum is cynical of new joiners bigging up particular businesses/services. That's all.
Yes I know but the lady did just register today. I saw the way the thread was going and I just wanted to explain why because if someone is genuine and they register and put a recommendation and get strange responses then they're going to be confused and think "why did I bother". I've no reason to believe the lady isn't genuine and I really hope she is but she was getting some odd responses and I just wanted to say WHY. That's all.

    • Thanks. I'll call them shortly as I could get there without the car. 
    • One time Sainsbury's delivered 6 bags of apples instead of 6 single apples which I couldn't possibly get through. I phoned Pecan in Peckham to ask if they would accept them despite their website stating no fresh foods. I must have phoned at just the right time as they were happy to accept them. Sainsburys gave me a refund so the donation was courtesy of them. Or you could experiment with all kinds of apple recipes and write a blog about it
    • There's a food bank off Dog Kennel Hill. Albrighton Community Fridge. https://www.albrightoncommunityfridge.org/ I'm sure they would welcome them, but maybe check first, as they don't actually mention fresh fruit on their website? But apples aren't that perishable. Drop off seven days a week 9 - 5. Be warned if you are going by car, parking can be very difficult, easiest if there are two of you so one person can take the food in while the other can move the car if necessary.
    • Food banks for sure and what about approaching these schools in area that run summer camps - although having said that with health and safety being so strict might not allow it - crazy really.    Can’t remember name of church but was one in Peckham that from memory did a community meal a couple of times a week. Now they for sure would take them and probably Kingswood House as well.
