This one really does set me off - not in a "I wish people would stop saying that!" way but in a have-to-be-careful-not-to-stick-this-pencil way


peolpe who say "enjoy" at the end of something - someone advising a restaurant (in this case) or waiters saying "enjoy" having served the food


it really really does bring the red mist on

Turn it upside down & keep it propped up in the door of the fridge.

It'll then pour out easily every time.

Damn you and your infernal logic. :)


I'll stick with squeezy bottles thanks.


Anyway the infuriating incident happened in a pub yesterday where they insist on using glass bottles.

Tourists. Dithering tourists.


I currently have to walk past Buck House on my commute (unless I'm lazy and take the bus) and you can hardly get past on the pavement they are so busy blocking it (around the side where they're all queuing to get in, not out the front - there you just end up in a few hundred photos each day as you dodge through). For some reason it seems even worst than usual this year (which is probably good for the economy, but even so).

On the subject of bless, why people have to say bless you if you sneeze. I refuse to do it and as everyone else seems to at work, I feel obliged to tell people that I have no authority/power to bless anyone, which I haven't, and I doubt they have either.

      Did you try the emergency number posted above? It mentions lift breakdowns over the festive period outside the advertised  times. Hope you got it sorted x

      Be careful in local shops

      By Sue · Posted

      People working in shops should not be "attempting to do the bill in their head." Nor if questioned should they be  trying to "get to an agreeable number." They should be actually (not trying to) getting to the correct number. I'm afraid in many cases it is clearly more than incorrect arithmetic. One New Year's Eve in a restaurant (not in East Dulwich but quite near it) two of us were charged for thirty poppadoms. We were quite merry when the bill came, but not so merry as to not notice something amiss. Unfortunately we have had similar things happen in a well established East Dulwich restaurant we no longer use. There is also a shop in East Dulwich which is open late at night. It used not to display prices on its goods (that may have changed). On querying the bill, we several times found a mistake had been made. Once we were charged twice for the same goods. There is a limit to how many times you can accept a "mistake".  There is also a limit to how many times you can accept the "friendly" sweet talking after it.

      Adapted not forced.  As have numerous species around the world.  Sort of thing that Attenborough features.  Domestic dogs another good example - hung around communities for food and then we become the leader of the pack.  Not sure how long it will take foxes to domesticate, but some will be well on their way.    Raccoons also on the way https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1j8j48e5z2o

      Excellent Christmas meal at Franklins!

      By Jenijenjen · Posted

      My memory, admittedly not very reliable these days, places the shop on the block on the left hand side just before Burgess Park going towards Camberwell. Have also found a reference to Franklins Antiques being located at 157 Camberwell Road which is on that block. This is a screen shot obtained from Google maps of that address which accords with my memory except the entrance door was on the right hand side, where the grey door is, rather than in the centre.
