Just because there's no more evidence of an appearance by M&S doesn't mean we can't rehash the same old 'debates' again.


Hands-up everyone who thinks M&S represents the Zenith of supermarket shopping!

Hands-up everyone who reckons people who shop in Iceland need a wash!


etc!

I agree. My dad used to supply fruit to several supermarkets and M&S' specifications were lower than a lot of the less favoured chains. Still wouln't mind one though - if just for their spicy lentil and tomato soup.

Can someone kindly explain, why Waitrose shopping offer leaflets have been circulating around East Dulwich and posted through our letter boxes? Isn't the nearest store in Beckenham? Or, has Somerfield turned into Waitrose, overnight? Maybe, the powers that be up at Waitrose Head Office have been reading the EDF?
Will find out definitely for you, (just give me a mo!quick internal call or e-mail as she is not answering her phone) Nothing like going directly to the horse's mouth and having a quick word in someone's shell-like, at least can put a stop to rumours either way XX

There’s also a step up into Maria’s - much smaller but you need to negotiate the step and door at the same time. Olivelli has more room and if I remember right the toilets are on the ground floor. A consideration if steps are an issue The Lordship might be an option. Noise is not usually an issue. We’ve enjoyed various meals there. The ladies toilets are on the same floor as the tables (the gents may be upstairs). The staff are always friendly
