Recommended Posts

yndi halda, who I manage are playing at The Barbican this weekend.


This means that unless I can get someone to cover for me at the shop then it's going to be closed for the whole weekend.


Anyone fancy helping me out ?


Can't pay you, but we'll work something out.


Maybe some free records or something.


Call me on 07528 554 673

i am very confused - you expect someone to work in your shop for nothing? and also you are trusting any old person to work in your shop? i would say that is a dangerous way to run a business!!

(methinks this thread is soon to be deemed "not ED-specific" and cast into the lounge


Did your dear old mum ever live in ED and come to a forum drinks? I've had plenty of stuff for free!


As for the Dream Machine - I guess we'll find out after Saturday how this little experiment goes. I've contacted the owner about helping out so do come on down and say hello (and buy stuff!)

lord love your dear old mum. but I bet she also remembers a time when your neighbours would do anything for you and you could leave your back door unlocked and come home to find that not only was your telly still there, but someone had left you a fresh baked pie on the kitchen table


I've offered my services for what they're worth. having packed in my job, I'm considering branching out...

The Dream Machine aint really like any other shop on The Lane, the owner John effectively told me that he doesnt care if the place makes a profit or not(as long s the rents paid for). Its more of a base for his forays into music/band management. Quite refreshing actually, like having a festival pitch on The lane. I'd quite happily donate a few hours of my time just to have a rifle through the records and bore people witless with muso chat.

    • I meant that particular Sainsbury's, but perhaps I am being too hard on it. But then I remember Sainsbury's in the days before there were supermarkets .....
    • Pudding rice used to be in the same aisle as tinned fruit if that helps?? My preference is the Sainsburys fruit and veg aisle over Morrison any day of the week and Lidl, although I adore Lidl for other things they sell and their speciality weeks.  However Sainsburys size of peppers varies (small to moderate) week to week but the price remains constant, fresh mushrooms are hit and miss, some weeks they have them other weeks what's there I wouldn't touch with a barge pole. Gave up on the oranges as they also became much smaller but at the same price.  Nectar is a money saver compared o the price without the Nectar reduction. That's the same for all four of the big brand supermarkets. It may have flaws but saving money is what its about. Just some thoughts.  
    • I also had an awful experience there last month. The hairdresser started cutting my child’s hair before even knowing what kind of cut we wanted, and when I started to say what I would like, she said that she knows what she’s doing and just continued. They were also incredibly rude about the fact that I’d brought a buggy with me, and had no patience when my child started to get even a little distracted. Just very unfriendly. 
    • Interesting take mal  Maybe the reduction in spending to 50% by the government on active travel is a sensible reaction to the expected boom not happening.  After all when money is short, why waste it on schemes that aren't being used as much as expected, thereby cutting your cloth accordingly and redirecting the money where its needed more.  You can build so much cycling inferstructure but as they say you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink.  Whilst more active travel is an admirable goal, if people don't want to go that route and with the weather in this country, then its hard to see it expanding much more than it has already.
