Yeh I saw that, but wasn't sure if it was indeed foie gras (can't you get liver pate that isnt FG?), not sure why he isnt using the wording foie gras? I did ask Rod but he said just check the website, he didnt say yes / no.


I sign off Tom, Geoff, because I class these messages as little email type things, and it makes it less anonymous.

ps. foie gras

pps, I always thought maxi was a women - named after maxidress or something. It confuses me that people dont use their real names on this community forum!

ppps. Mamora man - please do stand up and protest, you'd be the only meat eater in dulwich to do so! Ive been trying to get a Support Your Local Butcher Day off the ground for ages but can't find anyone to help! email me on [email protected] if you can help. Im currently in talks with Franklins and Flock and Herd (Bellenden rd).

Oh for the love of god.


"not sure why he isnt using the wording foie gras" - well because if it's liver pate then it's not the same bloody thing. And you wonder people don't want to be involved in your butcher day..?


Tom, if you're going to protest something, at least learn what the hell it is. It lends a stealth cloak of credibility to the venture.


Do you know, I haven't eaten foie gras in a really really long time, years, but this thread is making me want to stuff my face with it in a protest against abject stupidity.


And then I'm going to KFC and eating wall to wall battery chicken.

I see you didnt comment on the fact that Alan medic also asked what liver pate is?


So he's not serving FG - not sure why he didnt answer me that in the first place on Twitter.


Amazing when it takes a vegan to set up a butcher day isnt it? Perhaps Hugeunot you could help? Or anyone else who repeatedly comments on my threads as pro-meaters. Or are you all content with merely commenting about things?

Plenty of people don't know what FG is, but I'd certainly expect someone who attempts to start an anti FG campaign to know.


If a pate was made from Foie Gras, the menu would say so. It would be like serving a white truffle risotto and advertising it as mushroom.

It's amazing anyone would attempt to set up a butcher day, when there are queues out of the door every Saturday.

What Jeremy said, with knobs on. If I'm going to try to get something banned, I generally try to base it on something factual rather than just my own, poorly-informed, indignation.


And why on earth should meat eaters want to start a butcher day? We can't just go about our business, shopping at the butcher's as normal? We should only do it on a given day?

I'm way too lazy to look at what "a butcher day" is


Specially now the game season is upon us, I am literally fantasising about Red Leg Partridge with quince jelly


And pot roast pheasant & pigeon breast and stuff like that


See what you've done, made me hungry now



Lastly, has anyone cooked/eaten those giant African snails (?3.50 each)

      Gail's Development of the Brick House - planning permission?

      By Brian up the hill · Posted

      Nasty piece of work. Targets locations with a healthy independent presence and farmers’ markets; typical vampire capitalism. Great supporter of a Brexit too. All good reasons to go elsewhere, preferably small independent.,

      Cat Flap

      By TWB Cat Sitter · Posted

      Hi, oglander , Congratulations on your soon-to-arrive little lion - how exciting! It's always lovely to hear someone taking the adoption route (shelters are having a major crisis at the moment!). I've been in business for 15 years & can say with certainty that most cat owners in Dulwich have catflaps so, not only are they easy to have installed, but you shouldn't find yourself short of helping hands on these local forums. A catflap is a brilliant way to keep your little lion safely in overnight as well as generally keeping track of their comings & goings. I'd be happy to walk you through the set up once you've chosen your model (SureFlap & PetSafe are two popular brands). I'm sure the rescue has already advised, but just in case they haven't, it'll be very important to keep your newly adopted cat housebound for the first 2 weeks to familiarise themselves with their new home. Once they've scent-mapped the house, you can gradually begin letting them out to explore & scent-map the garden. Exciting times! x

      Charisma gymnastics - dates & costs

      By TreacleRabbit · Posted

      Hello all,  If your child goes to this gym club: since the new payment system, have you received clear information about the cost per session, the cost per term and when sessions will be omitted eg for school opened days? (I have asked the club, more than once, no full response so far) This term started in late August, before school had gone back (did many attend that session?). Next term there is no break for half term, so there are 12 sessions to be paid. Does that seem to be more sessions than there used to be?    I am sure they are doing their best, but the info from the new auto pay system isn’t detailed enough, and the auto pay just takes an unspecified amount. I wondered if it’s just me (wanting more detail), or if there are others too? (my child loves the gym itself!) thanks

      Excellent electrician - Paul Edgley

      By TorW · Posted

      ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent service! We had one of Paul Edgley’ s team come to fit some new lights in our living room. They were able to come at reasonably short notice, arrived on time, were friendly and professional, and did a great job. Everything was left clean and tidy afterwards, and the lights look fantastic. Highly recommend! Paul’s contact details are 07802 627967
