Deary me is right, A&F!


Moos was completely correct in wondering why your interpretation of that thread is so different than what was said. I myself thought that some liberties were taken in describing it. You are just parroting one person's opinion, not an actual incident.


Is there a full moon? The EDF seems to be full of crazy this week.

Does the community cafe opposite the top of Telegraph Hill Park still do a "Quiet Friday"? I haven't been there in a while, so I don't know if this is still their strategy. The idea of a Quiet Friday was essentially a "no children" day, although I think they would have been fine with babies in slings or quiet older children. I think they wanted to give older patrons the chance once a week to have a bit of peace, b/c normally this cafe is very boisterous and child-friendly.

    • Sorry Sue - me again. This has been on my mind all day, it's a big bug bear of mine. If you don't mind - please can you private message me some of these shops so I can cross reference / add to my AVOID list.  Thanks in advance. Let's make sure this doesn't happen this Christmas, particularly as we head into sales season. Even more problematic in my experience.
    • Pity you didn't quote what you are referring to, Mal. I didn't see the previous post, and my mind is boggling 😮
    • The Cherry Tree was absolutely excellent for a while when a youngish couple ran it and brought in a really good chef. It was them who renamed it The Cherry Tree. They were really turning it around. The chef did fantastic Scotch eggs, and one of the best roasts I've ever had. If memory serves the then owner,  for some reason known only to himself, took a dislike to them and what they were doing and sacked them all. And yes we weren't expecting a top class  meal last Christmas, and we left it too late to book anywhere else, but we weren't expecting it for a hundred pounds EACH to be quite as terrible as it was. Stupid us. Not sure why you are confused by my post, Jazzer? Did I misremember? Now it's got even more confusing because my posts have been merged and your confused emoji is shown at the bottom of the second one instead of the first 🤣
    • Hear hear. Very well said. Thank you and all the best for the year ahead
