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.

    • How on earth can someone like this be allowed to continue as a solicitor? Can't be just be struck off, or the equivalent?
    • There are no road works in front of Cod fellas and yesterday when I requested a stop there the driver went straight past and never stopped untill Avondale Riss. As cars have to stop because of the lights why can busses not do this? 1 minute Bloodly mindedness.

    • Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm
