IlonaM that?s good to know. It looked, when I went into Sainsbury?s, that they are no longer limiting numbers - there was no member of staff on the door. I did go at a quiet time.


As businesses are being left to make their own decisions on what measures they take I?d be interested to know what approach other businesses locally are taking. Also some might not have as widely published information as Sainsbury?s being smaller.


This is what I?ve seen on Grove Vale / Lordship Lane.


Marvellous Greens and Beans As before staff continue to wear masks.

Poached (takeaway) Nothing obvious other than hand sanitiser. Staff not wearing masks

Jones of Brockley Staff wearing masks, 3 customers in shop at a time, notice on door asks customers to use mask

Caff? Nero (takeaway) Hand sanitiser and social distancing markers Staff behind screens not wearing masks. Sign says staff continue to wash hands and clean and asking customers to wear a mask and pay by card / app (a notice has gone up that it?s a cash free store.


Can anyone say what Moxon?s and the other shops and cafes near it are doing? I?ve seen the thread saying the bus stop opposite has reopened and the barriers been removed so if there are queues for the shops that?s going to be interesting to walk past.

Hand sanitiser is really not that useful, is it? Open doors and window, ideally front and back, is what I look for. Dilute the air inside with fresh air gusting in is a good way of reducing transmission risks. Bus windows all ought to be open, same on the train, so if you are inside a cafe, etc. and there is no air, ask them to make some by opening a door.

Yeah I am also of the opinion that ventilation is more important (and reducing time in indoor public places).


Hand sanitiser is still a good idea for shops though, where people are likely to be touching when browsing goods. And also for kids who find it hard to stop touching their face and other random stuff.

Mons cheese shop Staff are wearing masks and there is a notice asking that you do. There is no no limit on the numbers in the shop.


Moxon?s fishmonger. Staff wore masks. There?s been an increase to 3 people / household groups allowed in. We went late afternoon so there was no queue.


Tandoori Nights restaurant. The door was open when we walked past. They removed tables during the restrictions and it looks like they haven?t put the middle tables back in so it should be good for social distancing.


500 Degrees restaurant. Staff weren?t wearing masks and tables inside look to be in the same place they were. We?ve not seen it full so social distancing shouldn?t be an issue. Cutlery was brought out as we sat. There is a garden.

so a current of air is createad


That areas have to be airy is a good thing, of course - but if there really was a real air current, and it was blowing through a crowded pub out to where I was sitting, I'm not sure I would be welcoming that - if the aerosol droplets were all coming my way - it's about dissipation, not funelling, after all!

Another good trip to Signoria.


We?ve had coffee, takeaway coffee and a porchetta roll from outside when it was going when they couldn?t serve customers indoors, evening meal (eat in and taken home) and bought from the shop. All good and service always friendly and good.

Will remember to stick with standard cappuccino not large (too large for us).

Although officially Covid restrictions have been relaxed there is a small garden and the person doing most of the service at table wore a mask. The boss, mainly behind the counter didn?t but it didn?t make me feel unsafe.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
