Hopefully by the time the paintbrushes are out they'll have realised what an absolutely bloody awful name they've come up with.

I went there on Saturday. It seems creamier than Oddonos which may be more authentically Italian (I don?t know) but really it is a matter of personal taste if you prefer it.


I live much closer to Oddonos so won?t be going out of my way to go to Fire and Ice but if I fancy some gelato after lunch or dinner at the Flying Pig, I will definitely go back.


They should do a nice trade near the playground and its nice to see more businesses opening up. I wish them well.

They had (maybe still have) a notice on their door on Friday night which I didn't thoroughly read as it was quite long, but I believe the name is part of a quotation from Blake, or is related to Blake in some way.


As they are just round the corner from the Blake mural, I actually think the name is quite appropriate, if that is why they have chosen it :)

Tried Fabulous Ice fire last week and got hooked. Delicious flavours, and love their own recipie. Of course it's personal tastes but I prefer it to Oddono. It would be good to have different portion sizes (though 3 flavours for ?2.50 seems good value given the portion sizes) - and yes, I have suggested it to them, too.
A pilates studio has taken over the old French cafe site...couldn't see another cafe and restaurant opening there tbh. But there seems to be something opening up near the cemetery end of forest hill road, go past on my bike every day and have been watching the builders at work, front painted and planters outside where I guess there'll be seating.

I like Le Chandelier and it would be a shame if it were to close, but must admit, it never seems that busy whenever I've visited.

    • Remember, you never know what someone else is going through behind closed doors....
    • Is anyone else having difficulty booking Silver Swim sessions (Tuesday and Thursday between 3pm-4pm?) Almost all the spaces are taken before the online booking system opens at 10pm several days before. Last night there appeared to be one space available for next Tuesday. I tried to book at one second past 10pm but was unsuccessful. This seems to have been a recent phenomenon. I made a telephone call this morning but just received a recorded message saying that the voicemail box was full. Am I right in assuming that in person bookings are now taking precedence over online ones?
    • I completely agree with you, Angelina. But it's worth noting that no one else has a problem with her, or finds her rude /  has mentioned her aggressively banging gates / ringing doorbells etc. 
    • But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.
