When it come to Street Cred.


Funny how people on here go on about what a wonderful meal they have had at / from..


Ganapati -- Olivelli -- Yama Momo -- The Begging Bowl -- Franklins -- The Palmerston -- Belair -- The Crooked Well.


Only Louisa and myself ever admit to going to Kebab & Wine.


How on Earth have they survived 30 so years.

Yes - everyone sometimes overdoes the drink at the EDT, and then ends up in K&W for some chips etc to soak it up on the way home... Doesn't really make it a place to have a "wonderful meal...."

No. But they sure do make us all know about it when they do..


No one goes on about having a good breakfast in Johnnies Caf?.


DulwichFox

so whats the point of the comparison with K&W ?!

Come on Foxy baby, you have to work with us, you have to kinda let us in to the joke too !!


BTW.

At 1600hrs on a Friday the Great Exhibition turns into a massive pram park, 10 Mum's nursing a half. Point of mentioning it is... I had a WONDERFUL SANDWICH there (before baby-fest started) !

Comparison with K&W needs no explanation.


You went to the Great Exhibition for a sandwich ? A SANDWICH.. ?


Link on how to make a basic sandwich 9 steps with pictures.... http://www.wikihow.com/Make-a-Sandwich


You can use your an alternative filling. and you do not need to use sliced bread. Experiment. its fun.


Foxy

Fox - you say it's light hearted banter -my sides have split btw - but lets be honest. The only chip you have is a massive class one on your shoulder i.e that it's "not for the likes of you".


From the Olivelli thread:


Dulwich Fox: "Looked in today.. Looks very Smart. Far too posh for likes of me"


Get over it Foxy. It's great if you prefer your Ayres/K&W/EDT combo. Nobody is knocking you. It's where you feel comfortable. But there is no kind of exclusion policy for these "poncey" places. Who gives a shit? You've lived in up and coming ED. Feel sad and reflect on the changes by all means ...but ounce you've lifted yourself from that malaise/analysis why not embrace some of it and try it out?


You might just experience the tiniest fleck of joy old chap. :-)

Mr Ben.. I never seem to understand a word you say or what you are getting at...

'It's great if you prefer your Ayres/K&W/EDT combo. ' What does that mean. ?

Sounds like a bit of inverse Snobbery.


Once again you have hi-jacked what was meant to be a light hearted thread.


You continue to throw insult. You always do. But I guess that's all you know.


You Quoted me as saying

Was a light hearted aside and I can assure you there are very few places where I might feel uncomfortable

or out of place.


If I liked Pizza or any other Italian food for that matter I would happily eat there.


So get off my case. Haven't you got any homework to do. ?


DulwichFox

Foxy: "You went to the Great Exhibition for a sandwich ? A SANDWICH.. ? "


No, I went there for a pint, then I had another pint, then i realised the only food i could get there without buying a proper meal was sandwich, so I had a pint and a sandwich.

Weird man, shit just happens. But it was..........WONDERFUL..... !!


I know, I know, a sandwich is no more than two pizzas turned face-to-face and cut in two served on a saucer !

The only snobbery I see on this forum is from the posh types who are unwilling to embrace or try out old school ED. But if the likes of the fox don't wish to be ripped off in some fancy pants blow-in joint they're accused of "inverse snobbery" for not trying it out. It's ironically funny.


Louisa.

What was meant as a 'light hearted thread' turns into tit for tat slanging match. Quelle surprise when you start banging on about how it's only you and Louisa that frequent K&W.


You have to pay to get into K&W (late nights) now & even then only if your face fits. Pretty elitist eh! ;)


Also DF the homework jibe isn't very nice, seems quite ageist and I suspect wouldn't be appreciated if it were the other way around & you were berated for being 'old'. Or am I missing the joke/point?

If you are referring to yourself Quids (I'm sure you are), why don't you do something about it?


The deserters and infrequent posters are probably bored at seeing nothing worth commenting on.

And instead of complaining that posts are a tedious load of drivel, bear in mind that at least we are starting threads in order to pass the time and have people to talk to.


So it would be good if you could encourage the regulars to post more often by doing what you do best, start some interesting threads!

    • 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". 
    • Can’t imagine what it must be like you have your doorbell rung harshly.
