There something of the EDF hipster > mass market > not hip anymore happening here? Like those certain beaches of Thailand, Glastonbury and probably parts of Hoxton in 1989, it was all great until it was somehow decided that lesser sophisticates had got in on the act.


Instead, I'd like to write something sensible and intelligent about once good businesses losing their way when confronted with ?? signs but I'm on holiday (staycation in rainy Lochinver hipsters).

Oi Mr Ben as a regular of Glastonbury it just gets better and better - stay away from the Pyramid and the Other Stage and go with the right mindset and hope for reasonable weather and there's still nothing on earth to touch it. When you're tired of Galstonbury you're tired of life (or too old).

Yeah and food is food is food.. With all respect Mr Fox that's poppycock. Yes fat is important for taste but that doesn't mean that cheap burgers are the tastiest.


On the subject of good local burgers, went to the Victoria in Peckham Rye in the week and it was a beaut (chorizo scotch egg starter wasn't half bad either!)

This thread got me back to the Rye on Thursday. Two pints of ale and a cheeseburger and an order of onion rings. ?16.80 all told. And what had been a horrible, awful, no good day started to brighten wonderfully.


Whatever a Meatwagon burger does to my neurotransmitter balance (with the ale playing its important part of course), I like.

Finally made it to The Rye (very small baby makes life tricky sometimes) and had glorious burgers. But I see this is a 'summer eesidency'. Anyone know the sad date for packing up? We're off on holiday for a fortnight and I think we may have made it just in time to wave goodbye.

    • Excuse me? Are you the forum police or just a nosy parker? For your information me and my kids were almost hit by a crazy black boy heading that way on a bike that day so I wondered if it was the same youth. It was upsetting, we could have been seriously hurt. In future wind in your neck before judging people. As I said when you stuck your nose in with unfounded implication and suspicion before, mixed race woman posting here and I bet £100 you are a bourgeois native Brit who obsessively sees race in everything at the expence of practicality (being able to identify potential criminals by describing their physical appearance). If your socialist utopia isn't going to plan don't blame the messenger.

    • No, he was utterly un-electable. Any sensible, non-Momentum, Labour member knew this. Corbyn likes to blame the press but that is the far-left modus operandi - find someone else to blame when the problem lies at your doorstep. I know someone who was on his team and they convinced themselves that they had won on the basis of social media. He was a disaster for the party and only Covid and the incompetence of the Tories allowed Labour to recover. Corbyn was on Newsnight last night clearly putting himself back on the circuit in the hope of a Starmer downfall.  This is why Labour HQ does not want McAsh leading the council - they are trying to purge the party of the far-left due to the damage they have done to it and I believe any swing to a more far-left leadership in Labour HQ would be an unmitigated disaster and just be rolling out the red-carpet for Farage. But the far-left won't care they see another opportunity to take over after they fumbled the ball massively in 2019.
    • Unfortunately I can't get near him as he's quite scared and my cat doesn't like him.  I will see if he is more friendly if he's around when my cat isn't in the garden ,I was just hoping someone might know if he has an owner or where he's come from .
