I remember taking our daughter to Aneto a while ago, for a bit of pasta for her tea. She kicked up a proper tantrum, screaming and crying. There was no shuttin consoling her. So I just paid up and apologised to the guy. He smiled and told me not to worry about it, and offered to put the food in a container to take home.


It's good when adults can behave like adults.

Surely this is just normal practice for 99% of parents. It's just the 1% that seem to make the east Dulwich forum.

Hmmm, now...I wonder what on earth you could be trying to allude to!

I have never, ever been barged out of the way by a mum with a buggy when walking along the pavement.

I have never seen a child using a potty in the middle of a restaurant

I have never come across a child called Jocasta, Cordelia, Tarquin or Barclay in the playground.

I have never sat in a restaurant while kids run around me screaming, and their parents ignore them


Sometimes I think I must live in a different city to some of the posters on here.

Not only have I experienced ignorant pavement hogging parents with buggies, I?ve also had to pull the self absorbed ones up for not politely acknowledging someone standing back to let them through with their precious cargo. Not everyone wants to hear your screaming child when they?re paying for a service in a local business such as a cafe. I don?t personally see the issue with a parent taking some responsibility and ensuring the shared environment of a cafe is comfortable for everyone. Don?t get selfish people at all.

Totally agree.


My point is that the moaning on here about selfish parents and brattish kids is totally out of proportion with actual reality.

I'm afraid, it will almost certainly not be her..... :)

    • Nothing to do with the tories overspending whatsoever eh! Blame the last 10/11 years of blatant mismanagement, incompetence and willful deceit on the poor bastards that were left with the fall out of a complete car crash tory government.   One PM after another falling on their sword. Open corruption and piss taking throughout covid and a legacy of huge debt and destruction yet in your view it will be labour's 4 years in power that bankrupts us in 2029.  Another one that must think people are blind and stupid.  Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃
    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
