It's a fair point, and probably loses them some custom, and I think the staff would be first to admit it. However, it's out of their control... They do lots of nice shots though ;-) Oh, and Fear, if I'm there, there's a fair chance you'll be with me, lets be honest now... :))

As soon as I see a giant screen in a pub I make a run for it.

Since when did 'proper pubs' start having sport on?! I blame America (for everything)

Please - no anti-American rants. Whilst it's completely easy to fall into that trap with the current administration and well publicised surveys about... oooh, anything - there is no denying how much good there is also


To travel there and meet some of the most warm-hearted and intelligent people, and see some of the most amazing scenes (urban and rural) is to open ones mind. If they relied on media reports of Britain (which I'm sure some do) then they would think of us as in equally stereotypical terms


But this administration does stink the place up

Thats got more to do with Sky and the rise of Lad/Ladette culture than the United States though.

On the subject of "nights out in ED" bars - one of the other reasons I love this place is that the bars, by and large, avoid many of my bugbears - specifically - fruit machines are noteable by their absence


Also those dodgy boards outside that pretend to be chalk boards but all have the same pre-printed font


Corporate promotions are also largely unnoticed (by me anyway)

I love watching the footy in the pub. It doesn't make it like a sports bar, people go there specifically for a match, the match is shown, the match ends, and the screen disappears...


Nothing like a sports bar with 15 screens showing some dodgy motor race from Australia, Kabadi from India, Dodgeball from America, and every other sport you'd never dream of watching....... That said, the film Dodgeball is fab ;-)

I do apologise Mark for my over familiar behaviour. Treated you like a long lost friend but from my side of my head, it seemed fine at the time. As I say Mojitos do make you a tad weird. Gorgeous girlfriend you have there by the way, the guys in my company were like the exorcist (heads spinning round to get another glimpse) saying who was that, corr, and all that!!

I had intended to post my thanks yesterday but I just wasn't up to a bright screen and the noise of the keyboard. Now I'm back in the office..


Had a great night out in East Dulwich and the north London pair were delighted to be forced of the train at Peckham Rye where they witnessed a full blown Peckham Rye punch up - bicycle chains an' all! Marvellous!

Glad you had a good night out - it's funny how some people from oop North are so surprised to have a good time when they come down here isn't it?


But Saturday nights out are easy - it's the Sunday nights out you have to watch out for. Ouch..... My head hurts today

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
