You're a legend sir. Both these numbers are going under E for Emergency in my phone.


Unfortunately I fell asleep directly after eating a fortune cookie I found in the bottom of my bag and went to bed without any supper.


Now I'm wondering if anywhere delivers bacon butties as I have no food in the house but can't leave as I'm waiting for a delivery. Pah.

Actually this is a good thread...given its world status London is totally rubbish for out of hours delivery - why so?


Last time I was staying at my bro's in NY it was great to be able to order anything at any time - fully tested by ordering fresh Japanese after a big night at 4am and amazingly once "English Tea" - proper scones delivered to your door with cream and jam at midnight.


Hit the same hour in ED, get home tipsy and what do we have? Answer: Londis, a run the gauntlet walk to Kebab and Wine, or somewhere so far away that the foods cold /you've fallen asleep by the time it arrives.


If Surma or Hisar started doing delivery only after midnight to 3am I'd be a taker - but is there a market??

probably not, i'd imagine that's why nobody's doing it - lets face it, lefty though alot of us like to think we are, if there's an overindulgent demand in the market, ED is likely to be one of the first places where capitalism will thrive in that direction!

Think we are BN5, think we are?


Yeah, you're probably right. I'm vaguely aware of a fried chicken place in Camberwell that delivers late, but I imagine it's in all likelihood not up to ED's organic standards. Actually, what am I talking about - used it once and it wasn't even up to my drunk-and-will-feast-at-the-chicken-cottage standards.

I'd really like a HEALTHY fast food place on the lane for on my way home. Somewhere that does grilled chicken and a big leafy bean salad in a cardboard box, a juice bar and falafels. The closest I've seen to that is some of the fare Leon does in central London.


All the pubs, curries, fish and chips and kebabs round here...not good. In the future it will come!

Are you sure Wimpole?


Usually if I want food at that time, it might be because I've had a few ales. And if I have, then I'm more likely to want food badness than a superjuice.


That said, try Hisar for some tasty looking falafel and salad late of an evening.

its a good point. i always wanted the fictional service that was thought up in sex and the city when you can call the number and they will deliver anything, food, asprin, milk anything. and why not. its a great idea. when you're hungover, drunk, ill, injured, busy with the kids to go out. if this was set up in london it would do a roaring trade.

I don't think this would help my neighbours, who have a big family car but never seem to go out to get their own shopping! My mum was never so lazy when she had to put up with me & my brother. =/


I'd love to know if there are any takeaway services available out there. I was starving last night =[

      Did Dulwich College tolerate pupils' bigotry and racism...?

      By malumbu · Posted

      I wonder where he could be deported to, Hungary the obvious candidate in Europe, perhaps he would get on well with Modi?   Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage both said Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood should look at whether Abd El Fattah's citizenship could be revoked to enable his swift removal from the UK. Farage said in a letter to Mahmood: "It should go without saying that anyone who possesses racist and anti-British views such as those of [Mr Abd El Fattah] should not be allowed into the UK." So just racists views are ok Nige?

      If it's the same one I'm thinking of, it was a little further down the road towards LL, probably where the Fresh Flower Company is today. I'd forgotten all about it, with good reason. I think it disappeared before Blue Mountain opened and became a pizza place? I once bought a carton of milk from the deli and when I opened it, it was solid. I did get my money back though.

      How late is your Christmas Card

      By Sue · Posted

      But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
