On a rare day off I popped in here with my friend attracted by the ?7 breakfast offer on the A board outside. I asked and the waitress said "Sorry this offer finished at 1pm" It was 1.15 ! FFS . As the IN-SIDE board had no prices (IMMEDIATLEY SCAREY!) and no breakfast type stuff anyway we had a fine brunch at the Park Cafe INSTEAD.
Why 1? Why not 12 2 2.20 1.15 or 11.0 It cant be obvious when some restaurants do breakfasts all day. Unless you can point to a clear obvious reason why 1.00 means no more breakfast deals. Are you saying that the deal should end at 1 or the breakfast?

"I'd like the All Day Breakfast please."

"We stop serving that at one."

"But the sign says All Day Breakfast"

"Yes, that's just the name of the shop luv. Breakfast stops at one."

"Just the name of the shop!?"

"Yes, that's if there's an R in the month, otherwise it stops at twelve. Your name does begin with a P, doesn't it?"

"Well, no, actually, of course it's uh...."

"Well that'll be half eleven then, then."

"Half eleven? Blimey!"

A friend you say t-e-d, was this a, you know, date with a friend? Wheeling out the big guns with a ?7 brekkie eh. Smoothy.

    • Not sure what you mean by "involved with firework enjoyment"? I'm all for others enjoying themselves, and I like fireworks, but if they were limited to public displays then people could still enjoy them? Having said that, I see that tickets for the London New Year fireworks start at £20 (Dawson's Heights it is,  then!) The fireworks in Brockwell Park used to be free. I don't know why those don't happen any more?
    • Really interesting discussion here. It's difficult to respect the views of people who support Farage, Trump, Musk etc. Why should we, when their views are deplorable. But then that exact 'deplorable' label, as we know, is counterproductive and drives people to double down / switch off to more progressive views. How do you actually help change minds? We're currently spiralling into dark places culturally and politically imo. The amount of open racism, even amongst front line politicians here and in the US is astounding to me. Feels like we're going backwards. The influence of social media and the tech billionaires / bros, is a powerful and largely malignant one. There was an enlightening (and frightening) bit of journalism by Sky this week about Musk's influence on British politics. He has a strange obsession with the UK and London in particular (as do many on the US right wing): https://news.sky.com/story/the-x-effect-how-elon-musk-is-boosting-the-british-right-13464487
    • Looking for any tickets to the Dulwich Hamlets game against St Albans today!
    • I'm going to Paris with friends, staying in the 3rd arrondissement. I used to go a lot but that was ages ago so wondered if anyone has any 'insider tips'? We are interested in small art galleries, independent shops, good value cafes and restaurants that may not feature in all the many online articles or guides, thanks!
