Hi again Barry, Thanks for actioning this - I'm sorry to say it doesn't seem to have made much of a difference. My suspicion is that some of the speakers further down the platform are not functioning. The one nearest the entrance (London Bridge bound platform) seems normal, but some of the other speakers seem quieter/not working at all.... Many thanks again for your continued help with our station. You're surely the most popular contributor to the ED forum! Will Hi This has now been rectified, the volume is up. Any issues please let me know Barry captain_paxo Wrote: ------------------------------------------------------- > Fantastic stuff, thanks Barry. > > I don't know if anyone else has mentioned it, but > I think the PA system at E.Dulwich could be > improved; if you're far down the platform you > can't hear it which can lead to > uncertainty/frustration in the case of > delays/cancellation announcements. ...

In my opinion the thing that has to go is the office-style fake ceiling. Nasty. I do love Mon Petit Chou - pleased to hear refit on the cards.

Fantastic stuff, thanks Barry. I don't know if anyone else has mentioned it, but I think the PA system at E.Dulwich could be improved; if you're far down the platform you can't hear it which can lead to uncertainty/frustration in the case of delays/cancellation announcements. ...

'If you're looking for serious. you've come to the wrong place' so said the the ridiculously perky barman as I ordered my drinks. My heart sank. Then I looked around me and my heart sank a little further.... the interior seemed to be designed by the same outfit responsible for the bars in Premier Travel Inns. All a bit clinical, not very adventurous.

.....I've always thought Exeter St Thomas the diciest of them all.

Has anyone ever purchased anything from this shop? I notice they now sell cars (on the pavement). All rather strange...

Well... sounds like it's worth giving them another shot. Like I said, the food I did recieve was delicious, as was the beer.

A couple of weekends ago my girlfriend and I took a friend of ours for a late-afternoon Sunday lunch at the Plough. It was our first trip to the place since its refurb. My intention was to order a Roast with all the trimmings and my girlfriend and our dining companion were after a Macaroni Cheese with vegetables on the side. I was very much looking forward to consuming 'all the trimmings' but was sadly disappointed because when I went to order I was informed that I'd have to wait 90 minutes before the vegetables would be ready as they were presently being 'prepared in bulk'. A busy lunch service was the reason given for the lack of veg. I was slightly taken aback as the pub at that stage (16.00) was really quite quiet. How hard is it to peel a few potatoes and carrots and steam some Broccoli? I then (tactfully) enquired whether the chef might be able to rustle up a couple of portions of veg for us but was asked not to get upset and that the bulk procedure of vegetable preparation would make this quite impossible. As we?d schlepped up the hill to the Plough we thought it silly to leave and we all enjoyed the delicious Dijon Mustard Macaroni Cheese baked with Spinach leaves (though how those leaves managed to slip through the vegetable pre-preparation net is beyond me)? no vegetables on the side for us! Vegetable irritations aside the pub looks great and the beer was excellent. Anyone else had anything similar incidents to report?
