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.

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
