Ask which aisle washing powder is in and all will be revealed... if you don't quite catch what's said, nip into chener books and get the bangladeshi to english 'phrase' guide...

Don't be so ridiculous.


I've never had the slightest problem understanding any of the staff in the Co-op, and it seems like you're just being - well, let's say unpleasant.

I mentioned in an earlier post Milk being 55p whist it is 48p in most of the other major Supermarkets.


The Co-op in Downham near Bromley charges 48p for Milk, so it seems prices are higher in East Dulwich.


There is Nothing special about East Dulwich. that justifies a 14.6% hike in price.

It's now possible to buy skimmed organic milk after 7pm in the L Lane Co-op.

And the staff are as lovely and helpful as ever.

The staff in the Brockley one are extra special helpful, have seen them run after a fraught mother who'd left a bag of shopping and also stay open after hours to help an older gent who needed to top up his electricity key meter.

Never a company to miss an opportunistic bandwagon, like those other paragons of virtue and decency at Ford, Mitsubishi, Vauxhall and Lloyds Bank. Makes me want to go and buy their permanently-limp broccoli just to be public spirited.

No, don't do it, maxxi. After all, there is enough limp broccoli in East Dulwich without releasing more into the wild. And anyway, you'd then have to bank at Lloyds and drive a Ford Bandwagon to show your allegiance to those other highly ethical companies...

If Ford do the Bandwagon in Smugbastard Magenta I could be tempted...

      Did Dulwich College tolerate pupils' bigotry and racism...?

      By malumbu · Posted

      I wonder where he could be deported to, Hungary the obvious candidate in Europe, perhaps he would get on well with Modi?   Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage both said Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood should look at whether Abd El Fattah's citizenship could be revoked to enable his swift removal from the UK. Farage said in a letter to Mahmood: "It should go without saying that anyone who possesses racist and anti-British views such as those of [Mr Abd El Fattah] should not be allowed into the UK." So just racists views are ok Nige?

      If it's the same one I'm thinking of, it was a little further down the road towards LL, probably where the Fresh Flower Company is today. I'd forgotten all about it, with good reason. I think it disappeared before Blue Mountain opened and became a pizza place? I once bought a carton of milk from the deli and when I opened it, it was solid. I did get my money back though.

      How late is your Christmas Card

      By Sue · Posted

      But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
