I can't agree that take-outs shouldn't be responsible for the litter on surrouding streets. It's not a chav thing, I think it applies equally to Seacow and SlippyChicken, as it does to KebabSlop. It should also apply to Wrigley's and Fags-u-like for sponsorship of street cleaners.


Clearing up after the punters is a cost-of-doing-business for restaurateurs, and if they choose to use the high street as their dining-area they don't get to duck the clear-up costs.


It would take no more than an hour to cover the roads within 400 yards and pick up the mess; at whatever today's min wage is that's not exactly breaking the bank. Get the cleaner in an hour earlier.

What I can't figure out is why some of the letters in Lick'n chick'n are missing and some aren't. I sat there across the road waiting for my bus trying to figure it out.


I also was looking at the sign wondering about the name. I mean is it me or is there something vaguely R rated about the name?


Scylla

I wondered if they just got it wrong and meant it to be " lickin' " instead of " lick'n " which is frankly preposterous, but they didn't know how to spell it


it does however inspire me to say it out loud in an equally preposterous voice every time I walk past


does Charybdis lurk in Kebab and Wine would you say, or perhaps if you were navigating the tricky line between the dangers of chavdom (Lick'n Chick'n) and clamphamdom, she may be found in the White Stuff. Have I stretched this analogy too far?

    • Hello. Would you like a sofa bed? We have one to give away…photos attached. The scatter cushions are not included.
    • Complaint submitted.  Your helpful link took me straight to the relevant page. 🙏
    • I spend a riddiculous amount of time at the PO.  Every day.  I watch and I watch closely.  Returns take seconds.  The wait might be long but the scan takes a second.  The only thing that slows down a return is people scrolling through their phones looking for QR codes. Business customers like me take seconds.  I might have up to 2 bags of boxes but every one is perfectly packaged and pre-paid.  It just needs a scan.  Seconds. For customers like me and for returns customers they could just put in a self-service check out and we would all be in and out in minutes.  Quicker than M&S.   Or, have a dedicated window for scanning and nothing else.  No facility to handle money at that window so nobody is tempted to ask for a service other than scanning.  That would get the queues down instantly. It is the people picking up things that backs up the queue.  The branch is not equipped to provide the service.  Next time you're in the branch take a look at the shelf space immediately behind the servers.  A few stacking shelves.  That's all the space they have.  Everything else is on the floor in a mess.  I take on board what someone said about the private delivery companies not delivering to Peckham and I didn't know that.   The biggest time wasting service of all is Parcelforce.  If someone in front of me asks for Parcelforce I want to cry.  Long, long, forms need to be filled out by hand, in triplicate.  It is Dickensian.   Please consider taking a few minutes to fill out an online complaint (link below).  I honestly believe that an influx of complaints might make a difference.  I don't want to demoralise the staff or anything sinister but the PO needs to see that the branch is broken. https://www.postoffice.co.uk/contact-us/in-branch-customer-experience    
    • Couldn't agree more with the frustration. I avoid it like the plague but made the mistake of picking up a parcel a couple of months ago and it took them 20 minutes to find it. This was after queuing for an hour. All the pickup parcels were just in a massive heap with no order or organisation so they manually had to search for everything. Bizarre and deeply annoying as if run well it could be a good asset to the Post Office and of course the community. Also, very much agree with the point re not taking it out on counter staff as it must be a terrible and demoralising environment to work in.
