Just you wait, if it continues at this rate it's bound to split off into an alternative universe where the Copenhagen Interpretation is ditched for the East Dulwich Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics and we'll be rich and famous while the lounge lizards are left holding their dicks :)

BBW - you are quiet tonight - get back in the mix. Never take a criticism to heart. Get posting.

What dilemma? There is no dilemma.


It's simple really. The Forum is for everyone to give their tuppence-worth on any subject, whatever the mood - informative, witty, sarcastic, serious etc - and the categories for you to express yourself have recently been increased.


If I thought The Drawing Room was elitist I wouldn't go there. If someone knows more about a topic than me (or pretends to) I'll learn from them or ignore them.


The 20 or so people on this thread, as witty and vocal as you are, are not self-appointed representatives of the Forum as a whole. Join in or shut up. Simple.

Well, having at first used the Drawing Room for the purpose of annoying those who are cleverer than myself by posting silly one-liners, I have to say that, having discovered some really interesting threads, I am now a fan. Also, I like the way the "Chair" sits back and only really intervenes where absolutely necessary.

Sorry, I'm interrupting which is rude, but I have just started reading this thread, or possibly re-reading as my memory is shot to pieces, and I am on about page one :) and I just so agree with Moos' post I had to say so.


Apologies again - as you were :)

    • A shout out for Mark, owner of Pure Plumbers. 07970 971510 They're well established in the Sevenoaks area, but have recently started doing more work in SE London.  Did some v quick and efficient bathroom and boiler fixes for me; have also seen some of the bathrooms he's built, which have a nice attention to detail.

    • Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?  
    • Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain. 
    • Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
