ED Picturehouse. Elitist*. (Louisa's lounged response)


Recommended Posts

*Bob* in your eternal quest to ridicule me and foxy you've failed miserably on this one.


MY point is this. If an independent like PeckhamPlex can charge ?4.99 in zone 2 London, why the buggery balls can't the BIG chains do the same?

I?d be delighted to received some tips from you, Foxy. After all - you?ve been tickling the forum funny bone for many years now, day in, day out.


What?s your secret?

If Ryanair can change ?40 return to fly to Spain, why can't BA do the same?

Jeremy and your point is? Are you suggesting there is some hidden cost such as quality of service, seating etc etc that is compromised by cheaper tickets?


Looking at my example independent smaller chains, they seem to have everything in order and keep prices low to attract large audiences. Nothing is compromised at all.

Because BA doesn't have outside toilets on their aircraft..

Yes they do but not necessary at the right Airport..


Ryanair flight lands at wrong airport


From a height of 33,000ft, the world below can seem a tranquil if confusing place. Gazing down through a veil of cloud, it's not difficult to confuse one main road with another or to mix up two different towns. Apparently, it's also quite easy to mistake one airport for another, even if you're the one flying the plane.


That seems to have been the case when the captain of a Ryanair flight from Liverpool to the City of Derry airport brought his plane down at a military airbase five miles away.

Jeremy the last time I went in that building it was J Sainbury before it relocated to DKH. It can't be that bad surely? What do you expect from a cinema experience?


Foxy that is outrageous. Not that I would personally complain about landing at an airbase with all those young men around me! Very poor standards though. Have you ever flown with Ryanair? I flew with them to Tenerife on a package deal some years ago and wasn't overly impressed, checking the size of my bag and trying to charge me for being over the weight and size limit etc.

HA HA HA


So busted.




I fully support Louisa's campaign to keep low-priced local cinemas alive .. despite not actually using them, thus leading to them closing down and being replaced by higher priced cinemas.

*Bob* just because I don't use them doesn't mean I can't have an opinion about them does it? It's a great resource for people with kids or who are into film, and these big chains surely can't justify these extraordinary prices, when smaller firms are doing it for less?


Louisa.

Jeremy you don't have to be Jonathan Ross to have an opinion about cinemas. For god sakes, this is getting more and more bizarre by the second. Just for the record, I KNOW WHAT A CINEMA IS I HAVE BEEN IN MANY. The last one I went to was in Cromer in fact and again I paid under a fiver for a latest release in a independent pictures!



What sort of experience do people wish to have at a cinema? Are you going to watch a film and be entertained or are you going for a gastromic treat to blow your mind whilst being sat in leather seats studded with diamonds. Jeez.

    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge". 
    • Can’t imagine what it must be like you have your doorbell rung harshly.
    • Hi all, Wondering if anyone else in/around SE22 is also having the unfortunate luck of having Evri parcels delivered by a very rude individual? Whenever we have parcels delivered, our front gate is being slammed open and closed, ring doorbell is harshly banged (not pressed) followed by simultaneously banging on the door knocker and slamming the letter box multiple times. Someone is normally home by the time they come in the evening and never has to wait long for an answer. If we’re not home, we speak to them on the doorbell so we do find the actions of this individual unreasonable and rude.  We have tried a couple of times politely asking that they not do this but they are very dismissive and gives a passive-aggressive “have a nice day” reply.  Has anyone been able to contact Evri and successfully had any issues similar to this resolved? We have enough evidence through our doorbell footage but we are lost with what else we can do. We’ve tried asking politely but don’t want our gate or door damaged by someone who simply doesn’t care and lacks basic manners.    If anyone else is having this issue or has any advice on how we can report this, it would be much appreciated. After another dismissive reply to my concern this afternoon, I will be calling Evri tomorrow to raise a complaint. I have lost my patience with them
