All Activity

Good call!

I'm wondering if I can justify a visit due to calories burned walking there and back😜

point taken. I'm not a cheapskate I believe in eating quality ingredients and wearing clothes not made in a sweatshop. I also prefer to support smaller indpendent local buisnesses... I apologise if I upset anyone with my comments. I'm sure the food is excellent and I wish you well However I still believe that £45 is expensive for whats on offer... And trust me I'm not comparing it with a sunday lunch at Wetherspoons and the like

Oooh! Hot chocolate! Thank goodness it isn't nearer! I'd have doubled my weight in a month 😄

Before going to Social Media it is always worth checking out the details: Southwark's spending for this year: https://www.southwark.gov.uk/council-tax/how-we-manage-council-tax/our-budget-and-how-we-spend-council-tax/our-income-and As you will see, as with most if not all London Boroughs, shed loads goes on social care and children's services. The cost of paying for residential care, and for 'specialist schools is massive. As with other boroughs they have been hit hard by austerity under the coalition government. And the failure by successive governments to sort out social care. That is a thread all in its own rights. Local authorities of all political persuasions across England are facing tough times, several have gone into administration: Birmingham, Woking, Thurrock, Croydon, Slough, Northamptonshire, and Nottingham and 11 are on bailouts. Covid will not have helped. Some will have made some poor investment decisions in the past eg Thurrock and Woking; Some total mismanagement and one has been hit by historical debt through not paying their workers fairly (Brum). Reform promise simple solutions to cutting spending. Not that easy is it Nige?

The space between Tesco Express and Dulwich Trader on Croxted Rd is now Chococo. It's basically a hot chocolate and coffee bar, as far as I can see. It was pleasingly busy with kids and parents when I passed by! https://www.chococo.co.uk/our-chocolate-houses/dulwich

I recently sent my granddaughter a birthday card. I posted it really early to make sure it got delivered in time. Over two weeks later it still hasn't arrived, and in retrospect I think I shouldn't have put "Do not open until 12 February" on the back of the envelope. I really hope I'm wrong, and I have a suspicious mind, but I wonder if someone somewhere in the postal system thought there was money in it 🙄 Obviously there wasn't, I'm stupid but not that stupid, she got her birthday money by BACS.

Anyone see news last night? Topic was postal deliveries or lack of them. Sites an example of postie going on two weeks hols and no back up or temp in place. Showed delivery room packed with letters waiting! Parcels get top priority. Amazing isn’t it as unemployment figures have risen.. wouldn’t have thought it was rocket science to utilise some of these unemployed folk to help out. Get fresh air, fitter, more than dole and surely can follow a round since most people are glued to their mobiles. Maybe not happening because of union and can’t imagine they need a dbs! Umm..

If it’s Brains Rev. James, absolutely. Good luck to them, I hope this venture works well.
