I'm in a really stunning hotel suite in Kowloon overlooking Hong Kong harbour. Nice huh. Except that the whole bloody building has the air-con racked up so high that it's bloody freezing in here. My teeth are literally chattering and I've got three blankets on the bed already. Apart from that, did I mention that the view is rather nice?

I was in Berlin, which sounds much cooler than where I am now, which is why I'm mentioning it. Now I'm in the office, but on the plus side no longer covered in the vomit of a small child, which for those of you that would like to know is no more appealing than that of an adult.

Keef - it was bloody brilliant. One of the best gigs I've ever been to AND I got to do it at Anfield. :))


Not just Macca, but Dave Groll, the Zutons, the Kaiser chiefs and Peter Kay all viewed from the Kop. He did loads of Beatles stuff and there's no better place to see him do that than in Liverpool.


All these lads were watching from the pitch and were kicking a beer can around and pretending to score in front of the Kop. Fantastic!

    • Ocado stopped sourcing from Waitrose a few years ago. They now source from M&S and general brands. Waitrose have their own delivery service now. I don't know how well served SE22 is by it. Ocado offers for new customers are, or certainly were, really good, particularly in the run up to Christmas. I think I got 20%/15%/10% up to a maximum of £100 spend off my first three deliveries with no delivery charge or commitment to sign up for further deliveries. There wasn't a time limit, IIRC, so it was a great way of restocking heavy store cupboard basics and stuff for the freezer.
    • Fair enough point, but does that not in a way make it even worse if they open a shop almost directly  opposite another "family" business selling exactly the same type of products?
    • As Occado source from Waitrose, and were their only deliverer at one stage, and as Waitrose do now deliver it may be they feel their reach in ED is sufficient to mean having a local outlet would not gain them sufficient additional sales to be cost effective. The movement to delivery rather than physical shopping during Covid has I believe substantially changed the grocery economics. So it may be that the High Street dynamic for physical shops has now changed. 
    • ..... thinking about the discussion about Chango.  Their "About us" blurb on the website says started by one Argentina guy.  So if one person has a successful business and goes on to open a number of shops when do they go from a supported successful "family" business to a less liked "chain"?
