There isn't much difference. Both are a bit scummy, but not the end of the world.

In Italy/France/Spain adults drink around kids, and the children learn to be responsible with alcohol. I therefore propose that beer in the playground is compulsory for all Dads. (Mums can choose aperol spritz if modelling themselves after the Italians).
Worth mentioning if anyone needs a playground alternative... Gambado sells not only (fairly) decent coffee, but also (only somewhat overpriced) beer.... and they're air conditioned. I always try to get an armchair, and once I almost finished reading an entire newspaper! xx

Pants, I was really hoping to have a pint in the playground - do I need ot have aperol spritz instead?

I think you'll find that Prosecco is the chosen choice of the good ladies of East Dulwich Jezza, though who's to say that this Aperol Spritz may take on over here now that you've mentioned it.

    • We did fine for 300 years with the Royal Mail before the current "competitive" shambles was introduced. Now we have multiple companies with multiple vehicles making deliveries to the same streets every day, none of the workers are employees with decent working conditions or any job security, and consumers have to deal with x different distribution networks and apps and platforms and drop-off points... https://postandparcel.info/12422/news/uk-royal-mails-monopoly-to-end-on-1-january-2006/
    • That's certainly the narrative that runs ad infinitum on the Forum but I wonder how true it is. Speaking for myself I'm very happy M&S, Superdrug, Pret and, in the last century, Sainsbury's arrived and judging from the business they do I'm not alone.
    • There are Christmas lights?! Or a, I missing something?
    • Though it's often the big corporates who dig deepest. For small independents that's a bigger ask, decorating, when they do their own premises is cost enough. And we're normally happy not to have the big corporates in LL.
