"just yesterday I received a free spanner in the post after I complained to the manufacturer that they changed the spanner's finish from satin chrome to polished chrome."


Gold, pure gold.

DC has nailed it. I do learn new things pretty and often my approach to life means that I interact with genuine people in the know. I've also been fortunate in working for an organisation that dealt with issues such as housing, planning, education, resilience, business, crime & drugs, children services, sustainability, transport with links to 12 central government and Number 10. Managing partnerships with GLA, London Councils, local authorities, Chambers of Commerce, etc. I've listened to Prime Ministers, SoS, Perm Secs, Director Generals, ministers and other senior officials.


@LLC,


I do realise that I'm different from most people in that I'm ahead of the curve but 'odd' is not the right word to describe me. Most people are not very good dressers/shoppers and listen to commercial music so why would I want to be like them?


Over the years I have learnt that my biggest critics tends to be ones who are either inept, style challenged or simplistic thinking thickos. What they know isn't worth knowing.


I also look about 27 years of age and fit. So the Alan Partridge comparison isn't true in my case.


So the next time you see someone attempting to ridicule, ask yourself whether they fall into the following categories: inept, style challenged or simplistic thinking thickos. Or perhaps re-read this thread in a different light.

Since this is the UDT quotes thread, check this classic:

I'm thinking UDT reckons Pseu-Pseu-Pseudio is some of their finest work but really likes Heuy Lewis and the News.


His business cards are also excellent.

      Taxes

      By Insuflo · Posted

      It’s a flat fee levy payable by guests staying in hotel and hostel rooms, so added to the bill.  This already happens in Manchester and Liverpool ( I think in Liverpool it’s a percentage, so the more expensive rooms pay more). I read somewhere that Edinburgh is doing this next year? Charges of this kind are becoming common around the world. I think it absolutely makes sense for Southwark and other boroughs are bound to follow.

      Taxes

      In  parts of Europe you just get charged tax at the end of your stay somewhere. Usually a couple of quid added to your bill. Most tourists are pretty happy to stump up the cost, as it's an expected expense.  I  think it's a good way to make money and remove the burden from locals.  It's for foreigners, Sue - I'm sure Londoners and brits will still be able to freely cross the borough lines without having to go through checkpoint charlie 🙂

      It doesn't work like that. There won't be differential pricing for tourists and residents at any attractions, no checkpoints nor a requirement to carry one's papers with one at all times. A levy is put on hotels, maybe on Air B&Bs, on a bed per night basis. That cash goes to Southwark. It's pretty easy to administer.

      Application for Londis Off-Licence next to Charter East Entrance

      By paulu197 · Posted

      Don't see an issue at all. Sounds like the protest is being made by friends and families of the two off licences, Morleys, pret and maxim chicken who are within 100 m of the school. Much ado about nothing. Besides if it doesn't proceed, the kids will walk a but further!!
