Another Sean eh?


I agree it's a pretty poor effort there - it has been 3 different companies/brands in the last few years but it's always been fairly dog-eared and expensive


Pretty good range of world-cinema though...


And one of the girls who works there suffered a pretty horrible encounter with an attempted robbery, so I hope it's not the one you are talking about...

I found the girl ok, but the prices are a rip off.


I used to pay 50p for half an hour at the Elephant.


I wish someone would open another internet cafe as competition, cos my computer is very temperamental but I hate paying 1? for 20 mins.


The library is free, but you can't access e-bay or facebook at the library!

It's the kind of venture Inside 72 or Liqurice should set up during the day when it's quiet; all they need is a few cheap but powerful laptops and a wireless network (I think Inside already has one). They'd piss all over that pricey dump and sell a few drinks too.

I spent three hours in Osbourne Stewart the other day playing video games online. Eventually their patience began to wear thin and they asked me if they could help. I told them I wanted to buy three houses worth at least a million quid each and while they were trawling through their data-base to find properties to match, I racked up a High Score and bu**ered off sharpish!

Thouroughly sick of the video store on LL, discs are nearly always scratched and this is quite a pain as I have to try and explain to my daughter why Nemo is jammed again. Plus the Asian girl who works there is just about the rudest shop assistant I have ever had the misfortune to ever come across. I wish that the whole sorry lot of them and their substandard goods would just fold and let a honest reliable establishment open in their place.
We are often given the wrong videos, we get scratched videos, and now you have to pay when you bring them back (instead of when you pick them up) which means you pay twice if you have an overnight and a three day rental - and you have to come into the store and queue again. The staff are depressed and depressing at the same time and they look like they come from one of those "this is what will happen to you if you smoke" ads. Lovely place, great lighting

I'm so glad to see Osbourne Stewart, local estate agents and free internet access providers still have support after such malicious accusations were laid against them. The idea that one of their staff actually impersonated a member of the public and shamelessly promoted their business here on the forum is farcical, they would never do something so silly.


I wish them every success and once they've ceased trading as an estate agent and made the tough switch to being a DVD/webcafe, does anyone know what kind of movies they will stock?

excuse me but the 'asian' shop assistant, who is not actually asian, is the politest person there she helps out people without complaining, the people there work 8 hour shifts 5 days a week without breaks and they are forced to stand up for the full 8 hours, and it's the manager that is vile, she is arrogant and rude to customers without any excuse, and with the number of vile substandard customers that go in there, there is no reason why they are becoming vile.


Also the girl you are calling asian is the one that had a gun in her face during the robbery so it's not had to guess why she is not smiling all the time

    • I haven't had a rude EVRI delivery but last week I had an unexpected delivery at 10.42 pm. He didn't ring the bell or knock on the door (or rattle the letter flap) but just took a photo and put the box down.  If it hadnt been for the door camera giving us a beep we would never have known there was a parcel ready to sit there all night.  
    • Sorry if I’m being slow but there’s no point in having a gate then is there?  Would have thought it was basic manners to respect someone’s property 
    • I didn't say wedge it "slightly" open. I meant to wedge it fully open. 
    • I have a rescue Spanish greyhound (galgo) from the charity mentioned above. You can contact Greyhounds in Need or one of the more local Kent greyhound rescue charities. They are fantastic family dogs. They do love walkies 2 or 3 times a day but they actually don't need to be walked too far and then they will happily loaf around on the sofa being very chill. They are brilliant with kids but not recommended if you own a cat as they have a strong prey drive. They also should be kept on the lead in local parks. They prefer to be around other sight-hounds (well my one does) and there are loads of local sighthound owners in Peckham, Crystal Palace etc and a very lively WhatsApp group that is brilliant if you need dog sitting as you can usually find someone to do that for free in return for you looking after the dog at a later date etc.
