Louisa, I'm sorry (and I don't mean that sarcastically) if I may have offended you or anybody else out there. I do take it for granted sometimes how lucky I am to even have kids. I don't know anything about you or your reasons for this thread, so I'm bailing out. Will enjoy all your other comments in the morning though! Goodnight everyone.

Don't take this amiss *Bob*, but posting this after my innocent bottom enquiry might be seen in dubious taste.

That's regarding the Louisa/YM arse thing, and nothing of course to do with the taste of the grilled pork dumplings supplied by no doubt hard working Chinese people.

I don't know who is behind Louisa but whoever you are, you are the best on here by fuckhen miles. Daff murderers (and non-existent signs), posh cheese on toast, the People's Paradise of North Devon, the philosophical impossibility of fresh fish - all masterful stuff.


This yummies guff is just a warm-up, isn't it? When are you bringing the good stuff out?

Goodness me I always appear to cause a stir and all I want from life is to achieve a better ED for everyone :-)


I complain about daffodil picking - damage to public property

I complain about lost business in a recession - snow day back in February

I complain about how bad it is that pubs sell pizza and how Pizza Hut is offocially the best selling take-away in Rome..


I provide a public debate about some hot contested issues locally and all I get is ridiculed and made to look like some sort of bad person :-(


I give up going on long distance breaks in future, clearly ED needs me here to raise the profile of issues which otherwise would not get a mention.


Back on topic, these yummies are a menace to cohesion in ED and they must be stopped from ghettoisation in the NCR district before it is too late. We need a McDonalds or similar to open up along that stretch to put a stop to this middle-class infiltration once and for all before it is too late. And to my critics thus far I say this.......YOU ARE TALKING SH*T!!!


Louisa.

apologies for not reading all of this thread- but what in sweet suffering f**k is a 'Yummy'?!!?

does drinking earl grey tea make you middle class then? blimey! So what if you drink earl grey* but also have a penchant for McDonalds? what class does that make you? I also like shoes from Russell & Bromley but I get my knickers from Primark..


* I do drink Earl Grey - Twinings only of course - but I do not stick my pinky finger out whilst holding my (china) cup

    • To be fair, a pot of tea for one in a department store is a small pot, and you only get one cup or mug!
    • I know - we have been here lots of times since it first opened,  which is why we were disappointed that it was closed at a time it was supposed to be open, but with no notice to say why! I guess we will just  have to ask the reason at our next visit, but I'm not sure we will risk Saturday lunchtime again unless we find the closure  was an unavoidable one off ....
    • Nope. I don’t have this wrong. I’ve tried to put my point across respectfully, without resorting to personal, angry insults. And all my colleagues agree that the BBC got this right in its condemnation.    All you see is confirmation bias.    If you don’t realise that, then you’re part of the problem.    
    • We have always gone during the week at lunch time - great place and good value. Husband has been several times on his own and owner knows his first name. I could not go one time for some reason and she sent him home with some spring rolls (free)
