Exactly this point. I don?t think the silent majority care either way, therefore it would make more sense to have a restaurant which offers some more imagination. Maybe even, dare I say it, a chain which does deals to attract people on certain nights of the week.


Louisa.

John you know as well I do, some of the worst offenders on this forum seem to be in a clique with the powers that be, and rarely if ever get pulled up on their often narcissistic and sometimes rather personal offensive drivel. It seems I do tend to draw a higher expectation from admin when it comes to adhering to forum etiquette, I think even you would admit that. I am not being holier than thou, I am far from perfect, but I don?t pretend to be. It seems I can?t do right for wrong sometimes, everything I say draws negative attention. It?s often borderline bullying, but I?m big enough to take it.


Louisa.

No Louisa. You aren?t bullied. You just come to a place where your blatant nonsense is called out


You?ve even fallen back on the hoary old ?clique?.


Are you genuinely calling fishbiscuits part of a clique? They are somehow protected? By who?


Who else is in this clique in 2019? I?ve started posting again but I don?t know anyone and no one knows me


You are just tilting at windmills. Re read the link I posted on your return. It was sweet. Be that person

I genuinely do not understand what you are on about John, what nonsense? Others have backed me on the pizza saturation, but clearly that doesn?t fit in with your narrative of Louisa causing trouble and talking nonsense, does it?


At no stage have I accused fishbiscuits of being part of the clique, but there are others still posting on the forum who are heavily involved in previous groupings. We can?t deny that. I am not willing to call people up on their clique membership, that isn?t fair, and you shouldn?t expect me to.


I am here to debate on a open forum in a honest, and yes, sometimes opinionated manner. That?s how I do things. I am not willing to be a offended snowflake at every turn. And I?m also not willing to appease ignorance when I see it. But I can compromise. I don?t like pizza, I think everyone knows this now. My dig isn?t about what pizza is, it?s about the amount of it we are forced to indulge in locally. It?s over the top.


Louisa.

Lou. Save yourself the pearl clutching. Some people might have backed you but plenty haven?t and you have taken quite the offence. Your whole ?who? Me? But sir I am just a simple messenger? schtick is so old


?What nonsense??, you ask


Well stop asking and start answering. I?ve challenged you several times on your bogus claims. But you never reply to them.


But here you are all ?oh my me ?

What bogus claims? Ask me again.

Exactly! And even if we do live in 'Nappy Valley" I'm sure kids would find stuff they'd enjoy in a decent Tapas or Moroccan place. I really like the chain 'comptoir libanaise' its reasonably priced with a big enough menu theres something for everyone.

Or the chain Giraffe are really decent, salads,burgers,all day breakfasts, Leon also is really decent.

I'm giving these as examples of fairly priced chains with a decent and varied food offering.

Pizza isn't very inspiring and If I had kids I'd rather give them something other than Pizza as a treat.

In my experience, Giraffe food is terrible.


Pizza varies depending where you go. Franco Manca use good quality ingredients and their pizzas are very good in my opinion.


My son in law groaned when I said we were going for a pizza, and he was completely won over.

    • Apologies on the tardy reply, but thank you everyone for your responses and suggestions! Unfortunately I couldn't attend the recent EDF drinks because of work (I know right). But will absolutely keep eyes peeled for the next one and try and come down! 
    • Because of the weather which delayed completion with roofer only being able to work certain days, it was up from November - end of January. Went slightly higher than gutters (we also had guttering replaced).
    • It's tough being a courier and the pay which is largely based on the number they deliver is miserable. Hence the staff turnover is high. EFRI was previously branded as HERMES but they had to create a new brand name because of poor performance. We get regular courier deliveries and EVRI are by far the worst. They just drop the parcel at the front door - often without ringing the bell. But worst is when they deliver to the equivalent door number on LL instead of ours on EDG. Best are ParcelForce, DHL and DPD by a wide margin.
    • I know the couple you mean, and she has always been friendly and smiley when delivering to me, but obviously in a hurry, for all the reasons outlined in the thread. My gate is always open, however (unless someone coming to the house closes it when they leave). I can't see the point of gates that have to be opened and shut again every time someone comes to the house. It just seems a waste of time, and it's annoying if you are carrying stuff. And a closed gate  conveys a sort of "my house is my fortress" feel. To me, anyway.
