cf a sausage cut in half length ways to look like two sausages, probably on the same plate. You ain't fooling anyone.


(With acknowledgement to "Is it me or is everything sh1t"?)

I won't join in trying to find expletives that will get through the filter ...

From irritating, to making me livid. Limescale, stained tea cups or mugs .. Litterbugs, animal neglect/abuse, bad manners (especially on the road, including bicycles and prampushers) ..


and when you are queueing at the checkout and they open a new one and instead of being first where you should be, you are now last behind a gang of marauding pensioners, who call their gang of friends over to also push in front of you, like they are entitled to be revered for living so long ... THEYVE GOT ALL DAY, (although I did say on one ocasion that I understood time was precious at their age) !!

"Wiltshire Farm Foods. So, Ronnie.. When did you last tuck into a lamb hotpot delivered straight to your door? Grrr


Louisa."


Wiltshire farm foods are the posh bit of "Apetito" the councils meals on wheels people. They are very good. Ronnie gets his wiltshire farm foods in a plastic tray, with an oak tree on a nice label as opposed to the council clients with tin foil tray with an appetite lid, and its delivered hot from the van ... so saving more on electricity/gas.


Wiltshire farm feed two old people ?100 per week approx

Apetito feed two old people 100 per month approx (if council cut price applies)

Threads about croissants. You know gentrification has destroyed a neighbourhood when a dedicated team of forum members contribute towards such a tedious topic. I think the ED 'knob-o-meter' scale has finally hit red and exploded.


Louisa.

Ah Louisa please tell me you're just pushing our buttons again.


The croissant thread is an enjoyable read and a fond reminder of how many threads on the forum used to be people actually chatting TO one another rather than just talking AT each other.


Almond croissants all the way ;-)

I may be wrong, but I would hazard a guess that Iceland croissants are a little less pretentious than the ones you get in other shops. It's not my thing, good luck to you if it is yours, but I just find them pointless.


Queue the barrage of responses of 'croissants are peasant food in France' nonsense from usual undercover guardianista snobs.

Irrational rage today caused by finding a potato caked in mud, in my bag of "washed and ready to use" potatoes. If I wanted a muddy one I would pay extra for organic ones (that's the main difference, right?). Mud on my Tesco Maris Piper is not acceptable.

    • Lost morning of 5th November between Archdale Road  and Denmark Hill station via Lordship Lane.
    • Was planning to come on here to ask if anyone might know which celeb/royal came through Lordship Lane yesterday - was on my way up to Spurs, on bus at the roundabout by the EDT when some whistling police cyclists pulled the traffic to the side of the road to allow a biggish range rover to shoot past, on the way up towards Dog Kennel Hill. Could only make out two, maybe middle-aged, men in the front before it passed. Mildly hysterical lady on pavement was laughing/screeching with her friend that they were desperately trying to find out who it was. Had more reason to post after this lunchtime's experience. Had just got to bus stop opposite the M&S by the station when some mini cooper thing bombed through the traffic, swerving across to cut up another car to get up the hill, before two or three police cars followed about 20 seconds behind. Said mini cooper thing then reappeared coming the other way, beeping its horn to get other cars out the way before it bombed up what I think was Elsie Road, with police cars now on both sides of the road by Maxin trying to stop traffic getting in the way/half the speeding car. Bit more than I had bargained for when I set out/want in local area! Stay careful out there folks, this place is getting scarier...
    • The stop outside the chippy was still closed earlier today, although the barriers I saw yesterday have been removed, so no need for the closure.  The stop outside the church across the road is now uncovered and open
    • You all have different and conflicting interests though. It isn't necessarily appropriate for him to communicate with all of you at the same time about the same issues.    You're giving more away with each post as to how these difficulties probably arose.
