Why do you say that.. ?

Havn't seen / heard any uproar about the Beer Shop on East Dulwich Road 'Hop Burns & Black'

Seriously? I mean really seriously? It's called white stuff as it began as an apres-ski wear firm, started by two British lads working in Val D'Isere calling themselves "Boys from the White Stuff." Pretty sure if someone wanted to set up a shop selling, say, Goth clothing and called it "Black Stuff" nobody would give, ahem, a stuff. Your post took me back to the '80s when the Sun used to peddle rubbish about black coffee being banned in County Hall!

Perhaps I'm stuck in the 80's , can someone come get me out.

I didn't know the origin of the name, thanks for explanation RH.

The Boys from the White Stuff was an obvious play on the Boys from The Black Stuff - which was on TV around the same time.

It's not really sinister or racist.

Step out of it for a while maybe?

Give everyone a break from your boring posts.

Win win.
