i know there have been a number of threads about the dish and the spoon, but i just wanted to add my own.

i was in there today with my soon to be 4 year old and it was really busy, but there was LOADS of delicious food on offer and ours came very quickly. the thing that i was so, so impressed with was the completely lovely attitude when said nearly 4 year old barfed all over the place. the owner just could not have been more lovely about it (i was mortified), helping me out, asking what she could do to help, putting my lunch in a takeaway container so i could finish up later.

i've been there a lot and apart from the first week when there wasn't much choice (now there was so much choice i was hard pushed to make a decision) it's always been really, really great. i'm going to make more of an effort than i have (i sometimes forget that it's there despite it being on the doorstep) and hope there is no more barfing...............

just to make it even better, shona (i'm assuming that's the owner) dropped by with a birthday card and a lollipop for our boy (i'd mentioned amidst the puking that i hoped he was going to be ok for his birthday the next day) ! i was astounded and touched. that's customer service (and kindness to boot ) for you!!!

good work shona!!!

    • From memory foxes only became a regular sight in the 90s, the attached article says they first appeared in the 30s becoming far more common in the 80s.  Apparently, whilst we think that urban foxes live longer than rural due to their 'easy' life few will make it over the age of two.  In towns they are far more crowded than their natural habitat where they are more territorial. I've never seen foxes and cats fighting but once saw two cats squaring up to each other and a watching fox went up and butted its head against one of the cats.  There's a video on youtube of a cat and fox facing off when the cat is eating outside, but it wont let me embed on this post.  Get too close and I'll scratch you. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/oct/15/urban-foxes-are-they-fantastic-or-a-growing-menace My main issue is leaving things out like gardening gloves and they go or are shredded.  One stole a bag of bird food in front of me, took it next door, shredded the bag and then left it.  
    • I was trying to remember when Franklins moved to Lordship Lane from Walworth Road where it was combined with an antique/bric a brac shop. Mid 1990s, first wave ED gentrification?
    • Hello, I lost a babies blanket between Tessa Jowell and the Picture House on Lordship Lane 😞It is teal colour with the name Cillian embroidered on it.  If anyone sees/finds it please let me know.  Thank you! 
    • Good to hear Sue - I  love Franklin’s  Although to be fair it would be a mad world where decades old local institution couldn’t do much better than (gawd help us all) a generic Youngs pub  (I had better meals in that place when it was the vale and ran by the Murphia. And that was fairly poor food even then )
