What does this mean?

I can't agree with you. The fact that they seem to be sanctioning someone who posts vile messages is very suspicious and makes me think this person is involved with the BB. If that was my business I would make some sort of statement to distance myself from them. I guess it must be Jamie Younger from the Palmerston who is involved with this venture as he also owns the Herne.


There have been several threads on the Palmerston in the past few years which did not portray them in a good light. One was started by Food Stories.

Jesus Christ? I read the ES review from the online link provided by Taper on this forum at 11.20am on the morning of 5 Sept some 4 hours before I replied to your post and some 2 hours before you thanked Taper on this forum for providing it! Giddyaunt posted several misinformed posts about the ES review questioning its impartiallity-check back and look-if you cant see anything get down to Specsavers (and no, this is not an endorsement, before your accusations start flying) No I wont post you a copy of SN review-check their website or contact them yourself if you are that interested. All the best.

Giddyaunt - I now getting very fed up with your snide slurs and accusations which you continue to make from behind your computer. Would it please be possible for us to meet up for a pint and you can say what you want to say to my face? I will certainly repeat all I have said to you and more to your face. If not, please do not publish any more slurs or accusations about me.
I am sorry to hear that. I suffer with mild cerebal paulsey which can affect my ability to properly percieve events in their correct sequence and my spacial awareness. Might I suggest you get someone who is able to read all the postings to you in date and time order and who is able to explain what they mean and their relevance to the subject in question before you start writing stupid comments that make you look like a complete imbecile. All the best

Sorry to get back to the subject in hand but I went to the Begging Bowl last night.

Lovely atmosphere and helpful and friendly staff. I had a mojito (with Thai Basil), others had wine, we tried squid, gurnard, rabbit, duck, tofu, sirloin steak and broccoli stir fry. All gobbled down except for broccoli which we found too salty. ?22 each for a thoroughly enjoyable evening.

So , is it a good time to visit the begging Bowl, whats the food like. and when can i book a ring side seat for the "BIG FIGHT LIVE" between Giddyaunt and IJJ1963, i can order some brockley and sling it at them. i hope this all stops soon ,may be it would nice if you both book a table for two and talk to each other like men , settle your arguments , and PISS OFF . my name is Morgan Freeman

Tillie, I think Giddyant/giddy aunt is Gidget, and IJJ1963 is a bit confused.


IJ... sorry your posts were met with such hostility, but you have to understand that this forum has a long history of fake recommendations, so your incredibly enthusiastic tone set the alarm bells ringing. But calling someone a nonce, and offering to meet them mano-a-mano is just childish and embarrassing. You should really stop.w

    • People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.
    • Adapted not forced.  As have numerous species around the world.  Sort of thing that Attenborough features.  Domestic dogs another good example - hung around communities for food and then we become the leader of the pack.  Not sure how long it will take foxes to domesticate, but some will be well on their way.    Raccoons also on the way https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j8j48e5z2o
    • My memory, admittedly not very reliable these days, places the shop on the block on the left hand side just before Burgess Park going towards Camberwell. Have also found a reference to Franklins Antiques being located at 157 Camberwell Road which is on that block. This is a screen shot obtained from Google maps of that address which accords with my memory except the entrance door was on the right hand side, where the grey door is, rather than in the centre.
    • The MFI was probably where Iceland is now. This post makes me feel very old - went to a 30th birthday party in the garden at the back. Oh to be 30 again!
