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

    • https://www.assistancedogs.org.uk/information-hub/assistance-dogs-emotional-support-dogs-and-therapy-dogs/   hello   i’d be interested to understand if anyone.has experience of Assistance Dogs especially for autistic children of different ages for emotional support and therapy   There was a prior thread on this topic on EDF 10 hrs ago but it had limited experiences and there was a (claimed) change in UK legislation in 2019. Whilst the industry appears unregulated/unlicensed, there are several providers (approx 15, perhaps more) who claim to have fully trained dogs or say that they can help families to train a puppy/young dog over the 18-24 months.  The latter obviously comes with a need for strong commitment to the challenge. Costs for a fully trained assistance dog are quoted at £13-15k albeit they claim £23k total cost to train the dog. On the one hand, this could potentially be a useful solution for some families if such a dog was truly trained as their websites claim and such a dog was accepted in public places and schools etc… On the other hand, I don’t think that I’ve ever seen an assistance dog of this type or in this context (only for a blind or partially sighted person) and hence a real risk of fraud or exploitation! The SEN challenge for families coupled with limited resources in schools or from local authorities or the NHS as well as the extremely challenging experience of many families with schools offering little or no support or making the situation worse leaves a big risk of lots of different types of fraud and or exploitation in this area.          
    • Hi there  We live on Woodwarde Road backing on to Alleyns Top Field.  Our cat Gigi has gone missing — it’s been about 24 hours now. She is a cream Bengal. Could you please check sheds, garages, or anywhere she might have got stuck please? And if you could keep an eye out or share on any local groups/forums, we’d really appreciate it. Photo attached.   Thanks so much! My name is Jeff on 07956 910068.
