Oh that's a good idea


Well, until a parent like me 'Accidently' rams their fist into your teeth


Then, not such a good idea

In my experience Nette if you use the self service checkout and try to bag up as you go along you immediately get the " unexpected item in bagging area" if you try to use your own bags you get the same as system doesn't recognise extra weight( even if you press" using own bags ?") if you scan something and don't immediately place in bagging area you get it , I've shopped in Sainsburys nearly every day since I moved to East Dulwich and have got it down to a tee (with the help of my 12 year old son,who would qualify as a personal shopper/scanner )I have occasionally answered the phone while said boy has been scanning and may have been fastidious with my packing in my recycled bags , sometimes after spending the day sewing it's the highlight of my day (no really !)(It's the half price wine..) I could send boy over to help you with your shopping/scaning if you like ,he only requires a chocolate bar for helping and you will get extra nectar points as when scanner asks "did you use your own bags ?" He always presses yes and then when it asks" how many" he presses 9 ...has been caught by extra vigilant staff occasionally though...

But generally they turn a blind eye as he is so efficient and he also finds ?8.43/?2.47 etc vouchers off your next shop on the floor ...in fact thinking about it I might start a post on the forum advertising his skills, hmm...

That's just rubbing salt into the wound.

apologies in advance but...I was waiting on El Pibe to say 'Na' : /

Finding out only after signing a petition on a local matter promoted on this forum that in fact my details have been used to create an account on the Southwark LibDem website where I have options to 'join the party', 'help out or donate', receive updates every time they update the site etc, but NOT DELETE MY OWN DETAILS. I can't bear it when people aren't up-front about what they're using your details for.


Have shared my views with the OP already in the ED Gossip section but still seething.

A "food and hygiene" inspector arrives at a local take away establishment... bullies his way through to the back when the kitchen is exceptionally busy... still wearing his rain coat, no special clothing appropriate to the environment and completely disregards any thoughts for safety in the kitchen... all rational you would think...


in response to being politely asked to wait a moment "don't worry I have patience. It's not like I have a job to do"


getting irrational...


in response to my comment "there's no need to make such a comment"... A SHRUG!!!!!

    • People have been setting off fireworks in London since the 1400s!!!
    • I still have a landline and the set of Panasonic cordless phones I have are on their last legs.  One display screen is broken. If you have a used set available, let me know.   John Lewis used to sell them but no longer.  
    • I personally, just lost respect as this is not the time to.disrupt hospitals and put additional strain on stretched resources.  BBC News - Doctors vote to go ahead with this week's five-day strike https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c246dnyjylqo
    • I'm guessing that most people with pets would not bring either the pets or fireworks into their day to day conversations, to complain or otherwise. Are you suggesting that only "timid" pets are scared by fireworks? What evidence do you have for that, exactly?  Or are you equating being scared of fireworks with being "timid"? And what about the foxes and other wildlife? Is it ok for them to be scared? Firework noise is not a noise that "comes with normal city living" ! What a very strange thing to say! Are you one of the people who have been constantly letting off fireworks recently? I'm assuming you don't have any pets yourself, or you wouldn't have these opinions, but if you do have pets, please share how they react when they hear loud bangs. Unless they are goldfish, in which case you probably wouldn't be able to tell.
