HUMAN BEING IN INABILITY TO RECOGNISE THE BLATANT

CONTRADICTORY NATURE OF THEIR OWN ARGUMENT -

SHOCKER!


I'm with you on this one Brendan .

I think I saw him this morning when I was on the bus going to work. He had 2 children with him, so if he has no children then prob not him. Thought it a bit coincidental as only found out who he was yesterday, but certainly looked like the picture in the paper and this guy was sporting drab jumper and pony tail look.

Looking at it from the point of the suits, I'm sure they don't want non-suits in 'their' pubs, they like to stick to their own kind and feel uneasy around free-wheeling tee shirt/wooly-jumper-wearing types.

I think the first verse of this Kevin Ayres song puts it quite well.


"I walked into this bar

and the man refused;

He said, "We don't serve strangers

in blue suede shoes;

We don't give credit, and

We don't give way--

We have to think about what the people might say..

uh, you know what I mean..."

I said, "Sure, man""

I'm not his mate but I can certainly see the father/son resemblance:

Nothing wrong with a good suit gentlemen. It doesn't mean we work for anyone else in a job we despise either. But whilst we are stereotyping, the Gingham shirts, jeans ,and cons just as much a uniform for the creatives. Lets throw in some Crocs / Gladiator sandals for the girls and everyone in East Dulwich looks the same....


WITH THE FOLLOWING NOTABLE EXCEPTIONS:


- Surfbobby - the famous organiser of the Barry Barry Run has his own garish yet truely unique style

- Sean McGhabaghan - the forum stalwarts walk-in wardrobe of all black is a classic, simple statement that says "Irish Ninja"

- Another Sean, this time Sean from Sean's DIY - a gentleman with a coiffured hairstyle that sticks two fingers up to my own gutless short back and sides. Here is a freethinking man of his own means who doesn't give a toss what you think.


Hats off to you all.

Yes - it must have been him, he does have 2 boys. What a coincidence, one day I had never heard of him, then read in the free paper that he lives in ED and then actually see him the next day in the flesh. Wonder what he is called On Da Forum?

    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.   
    • The SE22 Evri delivery family are lovely, and always say hello wherever we spot them in the area. We gave them a box of chocolates during Covid as they were working their socks off at Christmas
