Deary me is right, A&F!


Moos was completely correct in wondering why your interpretation of that thread is so different than what was said. I myself thought that some liberties were taken in describing it. You are just parroting one person's opinion, not an actual incident.


Is there a full moon? The EDF seems to be full of crazy this week.

Does the community cafe opposite the top of Telegraph Hill Park still do a "Quiet Friday"? I haven't been there in a while, so I don't know if this is still their strategy. The idea of a Quiet Friday was essentially a "no children" day, although I think they would have been fine with babies in slings or quiet older children. I think they wanted to give older patrons the chance once a week to have a bit of peace, b/c normally this cafe is very boisterous and child-friendly.

    • Just a review for Andy. I have now used him for various jobs for 5 years or so. An absolute and complete star. Always goes above and beyond, never cuts a corner, and always prices incredibly fairly. If you need a handyman...he is your man. Could not recommend more highly.
    • Don’t know about cafes but the Victoria and Montpelier pubs always have always encouraged people working during the day.
    • Thank you Saied for the amazing work! I will see you in a few months.
    • If you care about the decline in the swift population please support the lovely Hannah Bourne-Taylor in her campaign to mandate 'swift bricks' in all new properties   From her website: What are swift bricks? Zero maintenance and sustainable, swift bricks are bricks that sit flush to the wall that provide a cavity nesting habitat for swifts and other cavity nesting birds. Surveys show species include House martins, starlings, House sparrows, nuthatch, blue tit, coal tit and wren. Why swift bricks are urgently and uniquely essential Without swift bricks there is no guaranteed nesting habitat for birds reliant on building cavities anywhere in the UK – and there never will be. We are inadvertently destroying their oldcavity nesting sites through renovation, demolition and insulation, while climate mitigation measures mean modern buildings will never provide natural homes for birds. https://hannahbournetaylor.com/ Don't be such a pompous bore. She is doing something to improve the world around us, what does it matter what social class she is from? The despicable Michael Gove offered support then did nothing. The current government, despite supposed concern for the environment, also failed to support the campaign. She took the trouble to write back to me when I asked a question. But carry on poking fun at honourable people while our surroundings decay.
