Being interrupted in the quiet study area of Dulwich Library at 7.30pm by a member of staff entering the room and broadcasting to everyone that the library will be closing at 8pm (They do this every day, to enable them to lock up & go home at 8pm)

If the library closes at 8pm, what is the problem with the staff letting people know in plenty of time so that the library can actually be closed at 8pm?

All pretty needless in imho

I haven't worked out how to attach links on the mobile version. That's enough to cause rage, but this is for the person on the ED part of the site upset about the price of vegetable juice.


Very Easy Dulwich BTW 🙂

 

Very Easy Dulwich?


🤣

I just tried to delete that last post because I posted it twice by mistake.


I was asked to give the forum mods the reason, which I did.


Then I got a message saying that this forum did not allow posts to be deleted 🙄


Now I've got rage 🤣


ETA: But the post does seem to have been deleted. So now I'm just confused 🤣

When I’m in the queue for the self checkouts and I can see there are checkouts available but the people at the front of the queue just stand there.

 

When I'm in the only manned checkout queue and there's 10 people also in the queue but other staff look then wander off without opening another one.


Some people don't like / can't/ won't use the self checkouts

Those obviously vertigo-suffering bus passengers who refuse to go upstairs, even just to look for a seat, and instead join their allegedly claustrophobic friends who just won’t move down the bus. Worst of them are the exit-door crowders.

Not a tiny thing and not irrational but whatever:


Car drivers on their mobile phone! Couple of weeks ago I was cycling up to edge of a T-Junction to turn right into Crystal Palace Rd. from Crawthew Grove when one car came round from the left cutting the corner, then another one tailgaiting the first also cut the corner even more so and oblivious to my presence because he was on his F*ing mobile phone.


Even when I was forced to swerve out the way, he only had eyes for the car in front and his hand-held mobile phone!

    • Looking at the Street Markets that I frequented in the past, and what happened to Borough Market and some new covered places close to the river, most now focus on quite up market (ie expensive) street food and artisan food.  Northcross has gone similar in the last decade too.  Makes a mockery of the cost of living crisis!  Bermondsey, near the beer mile gone this way too.  Not old school Bermondsey.... More downmarket I liked the grotty indoor market at the Elephant and will similarly some of the arcades in Peckham. As others have said its about the demographic and whether there is further demand, or is the market place is saturated? Do you have an anticipated USP?  
    • Hi! I contacted Aaron for re plastering and fixing the wall in my kitchen after the old frame was taken out. He responded to my text in minutes, came to see the job the day after and booked me in until a matter of days. Did a brilliant work, even something extra he didn’t initially quoted, left everything nice and tidy. Super recommend him! Aaron +44 7773 410661
    • one of my main worries if I was looking into this would be the bottom line rent and rates - they must be magnitudes higher than back then 
    • If you are to consider offering a new indoor Market (and I also enjoyed and on occasion used the Zenoria Market) then I would recommend researching why it eventually failed. It had several stalls (including an oyster bar, if memory serves) that I was happy to use, and a number I walked swiftly past as of no interest. What was the demographic then, and now? What needs must it meet now? 'Build a field and they will come' wasn't  true then, and isn't now. It has to be the right field. And if it is  'fashionable' then remember fashions change quicker than anything.
