I think that last point is very unnecessary. If indeed the Blue Mountain did have an armed robbery I feel very sorry for the people who work there. I would be traumatised and terrified if I was the victim of an armed robbery. And anyway, the prices are not THAT high compared to some ED establishments I could mention. I hope everyone who works there is OK.

Beep beep, here's the offended bus.

Exactly ChavWivaLawDegree. And Peckham Rose, why do you want to know how long I have been contributing to this forum? All I have done is express my disgust that anyone would take the P*** out of a local business being the victim of an alleged armed robbery.

Hi,


I find it really strange that anyone got away from the cafe, as the mosaic is really a danger, the ambulance was probably for the robber, who now may sue for loss of earnings, harm and the owner not having a duty of care to robbers.


Regards,

Libra Carr.

Please stay on topic and not make it personal. Please also remember that a robbery on a local business is not a pleasant thing especially for those involved. We have previously been asked to remove posts about shops that have been attacked (by the shops themselves) as they found the "jokey" messages distasteful. We agreed with them and removed the posts.
I was in here yesterday for lunch and am saddened to hear the staff were the victims of a vicious armed robbery, I have always enjoyed my tea and cake and lunch with friends in this place and don't think it's very appropriate for people to make light of such a serious incident, which clearly will have traumatised the staff.

    • 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.
