1) The Germans. I've worked for a german company and with lots of germans. I like them a lot. They've a great and dry sense of humour, like a beer and have many similar traits as us brits only with better english. They get a bad press -I like them.


2) Pipe smokers - magnificent. The ritual, the aeshetic quality of the pipe - the smell of a decent shag...not a whif of your dog on a string Old Holborn. Sitting there using deduction to solve crimes/creating the NHS?designing stuff......I can even forgive Tony Benn some of his idiocy with that pipe. Magnificent and rarely seen. An enobled and diminishing beast. Piper smokers I salute you.


3) Busty barmaids of a certain age who call you 'darlin' at old school pubs...most of us blokes are just a sucker for this.

Actually Keef, I know this is off-topic...but you seem to do this the most...so I have to ask...


What exactly do you mean when you say that: "Word!"...(I honestly don't know :-S)...I used to think it was used to tell someone off, but clearly you are not doing that here...


Thanks.

You are right...so, to get back on topic (I shall then go away)...

    • I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?
    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
    • Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
    • interesting the police said "the car was in demand at the moment" what make/model is that?
