The best post ever was when someone threatened to ring their defamation lawyer over a random sarcastic comment. Talking of changes Brave Sir Robin has definitely found it's groove now they've stopped the ridiculous table service policy and in my sa…

What does back to blue mean, the weather? Anyway it was a lovely day today, I'm liking the layout now it's relocated although it makes it far too easy to gorge on draft cider, wraps, samosas and cinnamon buns, lucky that I was cycling or you never …

Nor have I now I think about it, is it the same owner (remote operator from memory)?

Sew in Crouch End was brilliant, expensive but done properly, they have other branches apparently so may be worth a look. I got a zip replaced in my jacket by one little shop on Hornsey Road and it wasn't great.
-
I was being considerably overcharged once, then i noticed the cashier had the bag leaning on the scale, could have been an accident. I regularly notice that a pepper may be (say) 20p but a tomato of the equivalent weight would be £2, it may of cour…

She had pesto and cheese last week so i am not surprised that they sold out. Actually I have just remembered that when I was in Denmark I was addicted to a pastry called a Frøsnapper, it was awesome, I wonder if it's worth asking her to make some.
-
Back open tonight. I didn't see the actual notices but a lot of rent arrears are still protected under lockdown legislation so it sounds pretty harsh from the landlord.
-
I attended around midday and all of the Danish bakery items were sold out as well! That local honey is amazing.
-
Oh, that's news to me, well the M25 was a total nightmare both ways, I've no idea how people do that every day.
-
Yeah I can't work that speedbump out either, I wonder if some mega cable runs below it. I had to drive round the M25 earlier, what a total mess, which I presume is people avoiding the A406 now it's in the charging zone.
-
Yes but the massive potholes in shared bus / cycle lanes are so dangerous and definitely cannot be blamed on cars. I actually find junctions with no lights or roundabouts much more functional for cycling and driving, the amount of people that turn…
-
I find the ease at which cycle lanes are closed (and normally veer straight back onto the carriageway) simply bewildering, it makes cycling more dangerous than if they were not there in the first place. How hard would it be to keep a small side la…

They really need to add some branding or remove the old canopy, I thought it was simply a new version of Doms before reading this, I had a look and actually it seems like a great concept, I hope they make it.

@Ned are Beerblefish coming back? I went to the tap room the other week, great place, great people and great beer!
-
I can remember when all the Porchetta restaurants did great food and had matching atmospheres, the one in Muswell Hill is a sad sight now, I used to go there at least 3 or 4 times a month many moons ago.
-
I ate in Piccolo Diavolo and spoke to the previous owner days before he moved from the little space to the monster, I totally get that he had ran the course and needed to move on to bigger things but that old Porchetta space is just so cold and lack…

Baban's Naan is great as well.

@therattle My Defence?! HitLeR??!! AXIOMATICALLY???!!! What the bleeding hell does Axiomatically even mean?* EDIT: don’t worry, I looked online and they come from the Axiomaticallydonian Road. Are you being obtuse or can you really not und…

@scruffy I genuinely debated putting a trigger warning that my post contained mild humour and a harmless trope but I suspected that you would be a better man / woman / ngs than that and you did not disappoint me. Just to confuse matters I think th…
-
Actually you know what, this is all the fault of that ne'er-do-well @Scruffy (who incidentally has never slighted me). It was all quiet on here until he asked where everyone was.
-
Of course it was a joke (although the court case was very real) and of course you clearly were saying that I am a racist, until I pointed out the obvious error in your statement. Guess what though? I don't really care!
-
@fwiw I would definitely advise people not to eat from the majority of takeaway places, I would also advise people to go 99% vegan, trade crypto, avoid Big Pharma, read The Road To Wigan Pier / People of the Abyss, run regularly and also to get hamm…
-
OK, you've obviously been to the Arkady school of not backing up ridiculous assertions then (and unless I'm going mad (which is definitely possible) that thread has been removed). It wasn't a joke and most "Chinese takeaway" places are no longer o…
-
Is it ? Against what race?
-
Might be worth avoiding Pork Balls from the local Chinese for a couple of weeks.
-
They do not open during the daytime.
-
Well the discovery of LSD was a happy accident by all accounts.
-
I think you should apologise and not make such marmaladist comments ever again.
-
Funnily enough I noticed the new floodlights in the tennis courts last week and the (I think) new stuff in the sunken playground, that along with the Mckenzie Gardens upgrade made me wonder if they actually are ploughing the profits back into the pa…

Between 1995 and 2020, the number of licensed cars in the capital city saw a net increase of 17 percent. No company would actively seek to reduce their profits simply because they have lowered the wage bill.
