Although I'm now warming to the journo in question, she's obviously done enough research to have uncovered a Ted Max restaurant review.

East Dulwich, a 19th-century suburb next to Peckham which, until the turn of this century, was largely overrun with betting shops and fried-chicken takeaways.


Er, there is actually one more betting shop now than there used to be, and the same amount of chicken shops. Load of shite.

So, it's Harrods you dozy sod.

Expect to pay more there than for example Selfridges or John Lewis.

I'm trying not to use the word 'Duh'.

But actually 'Duuuu..uuuu..uuuuuuuuuuh. What is wrong with ?9.25?

It was what it was.

Matthew, I don't withdraw an ounce of what I said above, but it was posted in the throes of drink.

Some would say that that was a bad thing.

Some would be correct.

Some would be utter schmucks.

Some wood beez and pray like Aretha Franklin.


Slancha.

    • I don't want to name a shop, but I have twice at this busy time of year had an issue, and yesterday was overcharged when buying a number of small things. If you are using a shop which doesn't give an itemised receipt, or doesn't give a receipt at all, just be aware that it might be a good idea to check that you are not paying over the odds (and if using cash, that you are given the right change for what you handed over). When staff are busy they might make mistakes.
    • As I had a moan on here about the truly abysmal Christmas meal we had at The Cherry Tree last year, I am redressing the balance by saying we had a really excellent Christmas meal at Franklins last night. Every course was absolutely delicious and  really well cooked. The staff were lovely despite being exhausted and run off their feet. In particular, my sea bass was a large portion and cooked to perfection, in stark contrast to the small dried up portion The Cherry Tree provided, from which I was barely able to scrape a teaspoonful of flesh (that is not an exaggeration). And our Franklins meal cost less than half what we paid at The Cherry Tree (to be fair, that was on Christmas Day so the Cherry Tree costs would have been higher, but that doesn't excuse the appalling quality meal). Thank you again to Franklins for restoring our faith in eating out at Christmas!
