Hey Grandad, have you tried buying a cup of coffee anywhere in the UK this century? Requires an Italian language lesson followed by a brief on Australian/American slang.


And we started calling greasy spoons "cafes" in the 1950s.

Oooh let's take a guess!


The French are crazy about their bread though, aren't they? Queues out of the door in any decent neighbourhood bakery on a daily basis...

I stand corrected. Bizarre how that's before I was born yet something I've always thought was true.


Still, online searching shows the baguette voted best in Paris still on costs 1.2 euros or about ?1.


Why can't that be done here by good bakers? Overheads can't be that different can they?

In colloquial Egyptian Arabic the word for bread and the word for life are the same - aish.


Here in post-Thatcher Britain, of course, bread means money.


This is the sort of faux profundity that sounds best delivered over a glass of coffee and a pair of worn corduroys, so I am just the tw*t to make it.

    • Regarding the Ring doorbell have a look at the information on the Information Commissioner's website: https://ico.org.uk/for-the-public/home-cctv-systems/ There has also been at least one legal case regarding Ring doorbell and cctv cameras, Fairhurst v Woodard, link to a law firm article on the case: https://www.nelsonslaw.co.uk/ring-data-protection/ Regarding noise and shed issues, can you speak to someone in the Southwark Leaseholders' Team?
    • In answer to your question Pugwash, the variety of foods that they offer both in canned goods and fresh. i personally no longer am a Sainsbury customer after years - feel that the quality of both their fruit, veg and fresh products ie meat, chicken, fish is not of a quality that they use to be. Agree with Sue that Co- Op does not make for a pleasant shopping experience.  On the subject of Waitrose not coming to ED - one can only assume that market research has been done by the company which makes it a non starter which, when you think about it is strange as all the big contenders are here.. Perhaps the powers to be have never heard of ED!! Maybe a Lidl or Aldi will rear their heads but somehow can’t see it as space is way to small. Really is strange that Waitrose is a non arrival - never ceases to amaze me how many eateries are in Lordship Lane alone and the majority all survive.  
    • What is it that makes Waitrose so special! Admittedly I have shopped a couple of times in the Orpington and Beckenham one - sometimes buying food which I cannot get else where. Their 'basic range' is not bad. Price for price and quality - M & S.
