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.

    • Just wanted to let you all know that Dulwich Antiques is serving free takeaway coffee (Old Spike), tea and hot chocolate all day every Sunday. We’re open today till 5pm.  Dulwich Antiques, 3 Upland Road. Hopefully see you there! Rachel & Conrad 
    • But is it the Village councillors who are maintaining the board, or someone else? When the boards in East Dulwich were installed, it wasn't the councillors who kept the information up to date, it was Monica from Health Matters, who was greatly involved in various  community matters (eg the building of the community garden at what was then Dulwich Hospital). I can't remember if it was her who initiated the installation of the boards in the first place. She no longer lives in East Dulwich, and nobody else appears to be willing to liaise with the councillors and community related organisations  to take this on for the various East Dulwich boards.  It would hardly take much effort. Basic information doesn't frequently change (and no, I'm not volunteering. I am overstretched as it is). It's all very well to  get a physical  community notice board spruced up, but not much use if it then isn't being used for its intended purpose. And I can't see that it is part of a councillor's job to update notice boards which they didn't initiate in the first place. I'm sure they have more than enough to do.  The notice boards serve (or did do) a useful service, but all the information which could be put on them is surely available elsewhere. (Unless it is bringing to people's attention things which are of use/interest to them and they weren't aware they needed/would like, or didn't know how else to find the information). ETA: Oh. I've just read the beginning of this thread. I'd forgotten how it started. It's gone well off topic, hasn't it. Probably just as well, reading the OP.
