Oh I don't know. The Greek place and 24 hour Digital Photos? Who knows. But given this is one of the best read community forums in the UK, with 5000 odd registered users locally it struck me as odd and a little naive.


The New Rules for any retail opening expect you to have a well presented presence on the web and to embrace and ENGAGE with customers across the main social media channels. It won't go away. Hiding away and thinking you're special or that it's still 1987 doesn't work anymore. Unless you're an old school commoditised business like a launderette, a newsagents or a key cutting shop.


Those who ignore these basics tend to be grumpy business owners over a certain age, naive or just plain arrogant and think they're above it. They are not.

There'd have to be a little glass cabinet on the side of the bar with two cheese and onion rolls (min 2 days old) in it and the nuts would have to be BigD nuts on a card with a scantilly clad go-go dancer underneath - and a tin of Castella by the register for aunthenticity.

A saloon bar on one side (ETA: or do I mean public? It's all getting a bit hazy) and a lounge bar on the other. No comfy sofas or armchairs in either.


In the (unheated) ladies' loo, a green stain below the cold tap, the only one that works.

    • If no one else has a problem, then it sugggests that the delivery person may not be aware of any harm and would respond well to a conversation. It also goes without saying that just because no one else has a problem, that the OP is not valid in raising their issues.
    • 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.
