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.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
