Hi there,


So I've been told to work from home for the foreseeable due to this corona thing. I'm quite pleased with this as I can sleep more and get away with doing less work, but need some tips on places in the area to work from when I get cabin fever. Ideally looking for somewhere that:


Does not have groups of middle aged 'ladies wot lunch', whiling away their lunchtimes spending their wealthy banker husbands money, discussing their next imminent fancy holiday.


Does not have lots of toddlers, prams or buggies clogging up the whole place. Ditto children making noise.


Has cheap yet fairly decent coffee. Bottomless top ups a bonus.


Friendly staff I can chat to that are easy on the eye and can hold a conversation, for when I get bored of my work


Can offer booze as well, for a mid afternoon tipple.


Any tips much appreciated.

I am assuming you are working from home because everyone at your work is, not because you have any symptoms or have recently returned from a high incident area? Do remember you are taking up space which does need to be paid for, especially if you are using WiFi or charging your phone or laptop - 'bottomless cups of coffee' may be exploiting your host.

Well don?t you sound like an absolute treasure.

What an asset to the local daytime community.

Working from your own home sounds like the best way forward for you and, indeed, for everyone else, especially cafe staff who don?t fancy being leered at and having to entertain your drivel when you get bored of table blocking.

    • Bromley is ok but in the last year, shopping centre now has a lot of security measure due to bags being snatched and assaults in or around area in broad daylight - another area where before, felt fine now more alert. 
    • Twenty plus years ago, the centre of Croydon was a fine place to work in, sadly times have changed, the Whitgift centre has gradually fallen to its knees, lots of shop closures and unlikely to be redeveloped given Croydon Councils financial situation.  Always preferred Croydon to Bromley and rarely go to either.

    • My daughter wants to get her ears pierced and I am looking for recent recommendations from experiences locally.  I have heard that Polished use a needle rather than a gun which seems to be the general advice nowadays, but I remember my own experience at a similar age with a piercing gun being quick, easy and problem free.  I'm looking for somewhere that will have the skills to put my child at ease and provide a professional service with proper aftercare advice.  Many thanks
