Lately I've been noticing several extremely loud and extremely fake pretend-posh people. The last one was in a cafe and she was braying and being loud and speaking in a pseudo Sloaney accents but the accents were clearly fake/exaggerated. On one occasion a friend and I had to move to a different table because the braying was so loud (and fake) that it interrupted our conversation. What's that about?? I've encountered these types in Blue Mountain Cafe, Cafe Nero and the Green wine bar.

real posh people drive shitty old cars have bad hair and wear shitty clothes but have standards.I have no beef with proper posh people


New improved posh people go to public school, get the T shirt and act the role for the rest of their pitiful days on this planet.I have a large beef with new improved posh people.

    • Callout for help from any local experts here. Looking to find out more about the history of the property on the corner of Whateley Road and Ulverscroft road (with the green glazed bricks). Now a residential property, i'm told it was a bottle shop in days gone (the house was built around 1900) by and i'd like to learn more about the history of the business that was once here - name, photos, anything at all really! Seems to be very little from open source research so i'm hoping anyone with history in the area can provide any insight!  Starting here before i contact Southwark Archives or similar orgs to get any information and pictures (any advice here also would be welcome). Thank you
    • Portable ramps are available for businesses to use in this sort of situation, aren't they? I don't know whether one would be suitable for use here, or whether they have the space to store one. Lots of people have  permanent or temporary disabilities which mean they have to use crutches or a wheelchair.
    • I can’t remember where I read that figure but this article in the Grauniad from 2023 discusses Ocado results from 2022. The average shopping cart fell to £118 from £129 the previous year. But Ocado lost £500m that year on approximately 20 million orders (circa 400k orders per week). So, averaging out to £25 lost per order. Ocado pauses building new warehouses as annual losses balloon to £500m | Ocado | The Guardian  Obviously, the £500m loss includes various factors. But Ocado has existed for 25 years and only made a small profit in a couple of those years. The rest have been huge losses. Yet it continues to raise funds and speculation sends the share price up and down. In that respect,  it’s like the UK version of Tesla. Meanwhile, the main growth in the supermarket sector has been for Aldi and Lidl, who do not deliver.
