Hmm...... https://www.timeout.com/london/restaurants/itto#tab_panel_4 (Sounds like that's the parent restaurant.)
-
It's the glowy hands one. I briefly had a rescue cat at the same time as a Reiki-trained couchsurfing friend. Reiki did not work on the cat, alas.
-
Indeed, poorly parsed; something like rtrim(left(postcode,3)) would do the job nicely - even if it'd give these reviews more credibility. And agreed. Ate there once. Wouldn't do it again. A friend mentioned a new Chinese takeaway has opened up nea…
-
Aye, they do own the domain, and the reviews are pulled from the HH site. It'd be better PR and a lot less effort to redirect the above domain to the HH site where there are a lot of positive yet wordless reviews; this site only pulls the ones wit…
-
I've just checked with Hungry House and they do not allow businesses to remove customer reviews, only to respond to them. They also have algorithms in place to identify and block "fake" (eg, inconsistent) reviews. I did not mention GH, just enquir…

@krappyrubsnif It was only ever going to be a cafe, didn't you know? The sacred rule of SGR: any new business must either be the same as the one opposite and/or the one next to it. That shop never stood a chance
-
I agree with @therattle: we shouldn't have to live in a constant state of fear and hyerviligence and always expecting the worst from those around us. We're not quite living in an anarchical state - yet!
-
Another place to consider is ArtsAdmin, of course, as their preference is for week-long rehearsals. Lovely though Stroudy is, it's not the artists' haven we all want it to be (i.e. with copious options for rehearsal space)
-
For weeklong rehearsals, try New Diorama's ND2. Not exactly in the area, but more realistic - any community space or rehearsal space is likely to be in use during the week.
-
Thanks for asking - I'd like to know too, as I've accumulated far too many duvets and pillows in the last few years, and they're just sitting in the attic now.
-
New influx of students, perhaps?
-
Oh no, I only just saw this now! It worked out in the end - I managed to get three boxes from the kebab shop opposite Petek, and that was all I needed. Thank you so much for offering, @conformable_kate! @joust that's great to know, many thanks - I…
-
Thanks @conformable_kate I've only just seen this - I guess it's too late, though?
-
You can search on Islington's website for dogs, and there is nothing about this, unless it's buried deep in the policies document. A food prep area is obviously where food is prepared.
-
This was the first result on Google: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/health/pets-health/9583690/Pet-subjects-What-is-the-law-on-allowing-dogs-in-bars-restaurants-and-shops.html

How much would it cost to get it fixed so that it's fully-functional? If that's the hurdle (potentially) preventing it from going to a worthy home such as a homeless charity or soup kitchen...
-
Bah, I'm snowed under with work (and in Brighton) so I probably won't be able to make it tomorrow after all * gnashes teeth * Unless... how late do you think you'll all be at the pub tomorrow? I was so looking forward to this, d*mn it...

@The_Beadle * applauds *

Old Dairy?

There was a cafe And another cafe And another cafe And yet another cafe All hail Stroud Green There was a barber shop And another one And another one And yet another one All hail Stroud Green Finally we have a Vietnamese And another And a Thai An…

Hurrah, I'm actually (probably) in London that day, looking forward to it!
-
@Ned I'll try next time! The photographers outvoted me, so Shoreditch it is *sighs sadly*
-
Thank you! I've just messaged the photographers to check with them, and then realised we could also drop by the Farmers' Market, if @Ned doesn't mind some impromptu performances.
-
Oh dang, that sounds brilliant, but I'm teaching all afternoon! Unless people wouldn't mind a couple of dancers posing here and there, surrounded by a small group of amateur photographers? Hmm......
-
Reminds me of this story from last year: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/2016/03/29/uber-driver-charges-drunk-passenger-102-for-15-journey/

Yup, it was taken over by the Finsbury Park Sport Partnership a few years ago, their website is http://www.finsburyparksportspartnership.org.uk. This site https://www.openplay.co.uk/view/3345/finsbury-park-track-gym says it's £5/hour to use.
-
@miss annie Aye, I've been using Gett for the last few months (they had a tasty "£5 off each of your first 10 rides" offer), and they are a world above Uber in terms of professionalism and reliability. @minim I've used UberXL in Leeds a few times,…
-
@grenners I've had Uber drivers tell me for the past year or so that Uber will put all of the minicab firms out of business. It's convenience, cost and ubiquity - having that many drivers means never having to wait too long for a taxi; you can see…
-
Thanks @miss annie - I work in dance but I quit dancing years ago; I partly moved to the area because of all the dancer friends living in the area!
-
Oh, with Uber, you still do - about 90% of Uber drivers last year refused to believe I'd entered my address correctly and would insist on turning left instead of right onto my street. The local cab company was far worse, though.
