Annette, as you may already know it is simply that there have been several instances of companies setting up more than one identity on the forum in order to post fake endorsements...I think because both you and the other lady who posted strongly in favour of the event appeared to have set up your accounts and posted for the first time on that same day it looked a little dubious.


Of course anyone is free to post their views, that is the whole point of the forum. I certainly remember seeing posts from special chocolates in the past, remember thinking what a good name it was.


Anyway, personally I hope we can all move on now - I only posted again on the subject to clarify that I didn't find NM at all aggressive.


Molly :))

Agree that the 12th looks best for everyone this time around, and hopefully plenty of tired children in bed easily after the NCT party the same day, so we can make easy and fast escapes!


I don't mind where we go - happy to glam up, or town down (in dirty jeans and baby sick covered jumper!!) according to what suits people.


I know some of the Lordship Lane places will reserve space for a group free of charge, which might be a good idea on a Saturday in December.


Have to admit to not having gone out recently, so not really in a position to suggest where - anyone else?


Molly

erm, Green and Blue is nice, also the Lodge upstairs from EDT might be a good space for this - think a bit of it def reservable? Franklins is great but quite a small bar really isn't it? Oh dear - the irony of a bunch of mums trying to think of a place to drink ie none of us often get the chance to try places out!

I would love to come along, but am likewise away on 12th to the nasty countryside.


Think this is a great idea, though must admit that in my knackered state I crave lounging in other people's living rooms (no matter what state, even a lads'-house littered with lad-mags, beer cans, pizza and with disturbingly matted carpet would do) and lots of large cups of tea much more than bars and booze! Though bars and booze still good.

    • 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.
