Frankito, fair enough and I guess the forum has become the place for people to vent their frustrations when things wind them up.

I'm also guessing that it'd be good old Admin who takes the flack from angry local businesses about any misrepresentation on here tho.


I don't think that everyone realises that some posts are from bots either judging from the way they respond to them, here is a case in point.


Now is it too late to second dearest Meds' nomination? He's probably got a rule book about that somewhere too!

Netts already seconded the vote. Evil.


Not sure how moaning about a bit of late night noise can be construed as misinterpretation... Now if I had been saying the place is crap or they rip me off then yes, I would expect to be challenged and pulled into line. But I haven't said that nor have I implied it. It's a decent local for all it gets noisy.. ... ..... :)


I have heard much worse on here although not from you.

katie, you noticed! (extracts earplugs and weeps with gratitude)


no more from me now as a. thou shall not hijack thread and b. thou shall not suffer it to undergo dread fate of wtf Actress threads


richbach may be bot, but he speak sooth

Thirded then please.


Nope, I didn't say you misrepresented them either. I'm sure you've probably noticed that the way things go on here sometimes a bit of light-hearted moaning and a negative thread title sometimes attracts unwarranted comments against local businesses too, that's all.


Edited - reply to Frank.

Frankie, in all semi-seriousness, you hardly said anything. You could have been complaining about seagulls or people talking on the street. It was just a comment. It happened to be the pub noise. I don't see it as an attempt to put Pete out of business. Regarding the 'wtf' bit, frankly in this age of textspeak we add things to comments because of it. It could have been 'be janey' if there was textspeak for it. I have to admit that some textspeak I have to look up as I don't know what it means.


I'd be more pee'd off with Pete if I was going to his pub last week-end to watch the footie and thought I could see all of the two games he advertised as on. The kick off times wouldn't have allowed this but on his thread they would have. Being the polite citizen I am I did post to let him know.

Katie, I tend to exaggerate. It's a 'problem' I have. I'm dealing with it.


*pops a few more pills*

No need for facetious remarks, Frankito.


I just happened to read this thread yesterday and unfortunately got caught up in responding to (in my opinion, unkind) remarks made by granadaland/Matt after the FHT posted on here. I know that far worse comments about local businesses have been made on here. I think I already said, oooh way back on page 1, that this one didn't seem to be intended to be deliberately malicious in any way and that the FHt likely didn't have knowledge of your usually good humoured posts.

There was no interest, believe me, until people started being unnecessarily rude to the response from what is, after all, a local business and someone's livelihood.


If I did work there, you'd hate it even more - I think Rolf Harris is great for karaoke :)

    • That’s interesting, Dulwich Dweller; my 70 yr old neighbour told me 2 weeks ago that he’d left work early to go and book in person (being uncomfortable with all the online & app stuff) and was explicitly told that he needed to go away and book online. He’s not the sort of person to be insistent and, like a lot of older people, a bit embarrassed at his lack of digital ability, so he left without the appointment . This is my point about inconsistency, since his experience was quite different from yours. I’m beginning think that it rather depends on who, at Reception, you speak to on day…
    • Wow, never had a disappointing meal there since they opened.. guess like every establishment, depends on the chef.. All for allowing an off day - good of you to post.. much better than chains - had awful service at Gail’s for eg..be it cake and tea or a meal.. They are so nice and accommodating..       
    • "I tried Viet Flavour and was disappointed.  Their summer rolls especially were not at all good, stodgy and flavourless.  Pho-OK.  I'm hoping it will get better " Back in June I posted as above.  I am glad to report that either the first time I went the restaurant was having an off day, or they have upped their game.  I ordered the same things.  The summer roll was exactly as it should be, and had a lovely dipping sauce. The Pho was delicious.  My brother who was with me wanted to give it 10/10 but I always think you should leave room for improvement so gave it 9/10.  Staff were lovely.  I am so glad because I love Vietnamese food and now think I have a very good one just round the corner.  
    • So do I, and I started it!!!  I have changed title.
