Hello, my name's actually Don, but Consequential is just a username I've used in the past. Without going into too much detail, I'm a semi-retired businessman, married with grown-up kids and maintain homes both London and W. Sussex. I vote UKIP and spend my free time on sports, politics travelling - I travelled extensively in my youth, but not by conventional standards: backpacking and hitching lifts all the way from Paris to Thailand. Loved it.


Glad to make your acquaintance.

@ E dealer. If you're referring to what I think you are, surely it isn't unreasonable for economic migrants from the EU to apply for a work permit before entering the country in order to further their own interests? Though I hasten to add that I support full withdrawl from the European Union, or a drastically reappraising its current remit, so I'm naturally bias. You?

@ E dealer. I'm happy to admit that there's an unsavoury element among the ranks of UKIP, but the same can be said of all parties. But I make no apologies for my political beliefs. UKIP's manifesto speaks sense and appeals to me.


I'm not anti-Europe. Far from it. I just resent what the EU has become: an attempt at a federalist super-state. I want individual sovereignty for all memeber states, not central power wielded by Brussels. In short, I want a say in the referendum I'm entitled to. But unless someone, like UKIP, doesn't start making a noise over it, I'm unlikely to get it.

@ E dealer. It's not a matter of loyalty. It's a fact. He comes from a non-political background, but has made considerable progress as a politician. Although uncomfortable for some, his views on the EU's behaviour and real motives is spot on and shared by many. He's showcasing their gross incompetence from within, which takes remarkable skill and character.

@ ????. I've met Farage in person. His charisma knows no bounds and compared to the handful of Tory politicians who I've met in the past, I truly believe he's more concerned with furthering the country's interests as opposed to his own. He also shares my deep-seated loathing of political correctness, of which I shall comment on in the future.

    • Would anyone have ends of balls of wool, any colour, to mend an old blanket? Any colour? With thanks Mila
    • I’m not a Gail’s fan but there’s no reason a business shouldn’t open on Christmas Day. However, nobody should be compelled to work the day which, given the widespread coverage of Gail’s questionable employment practices, has to be a possibility here.  The only business I ever use on the 25th is maybe a pub and that’s a rarity these days but buses running would be very welcome for visiting etc. But the swings in the park should definitely remain chained up. Are parks even open on Christmas Day?
    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
    • Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
