Oooh! Looks like we are getting ANOTHER wine shop! Just a few doors down from Mind, where [one of] the Italian places used to be, Butler’s is coming: wine, cheese, charcuterie.
@Scruffy unfortunately yes, they really did say something about his skin colour. It wasn’t quite at the n word level, but almost as bad. And you should give Hana Maria another chance! I think they have amazing pizza. Someday I’ll make a website wher…
I'm very excited that Il Piccalo Diavolo is moving onto SGR! While Pappagone's pizza is good, I'll never forgive the wait staff that made a comment about the colour of my partner's skin so won't be going back. Diabolo's pizza is a great competitor, …
It would appear my neighbor has Airbnb’d their flat for the festival. Got to listen to a repeat of Wireless playing in their garden while I tried to sleep at 5am.
Hmm okay. I’m very much a beginner when it comes to CMS, but checked with my partner. He said he isn’t familiar with Vanilla but agrees it might be time to switch. He says his go-to is Discourse.
@Arkady what is the site run on? It is possible that I could get my techs partner to help out if he has spare time. It’s also slightly possible that I could help out, personally, though I’m more on the human side of computers...
I have just been in! It’s a lovely place owned by three very friendly and kind men. The food menu is limited but fresh, lovingly made, and delicious. I only got the bruschetta, though... I’ll have to go back with the Mr for the oysters.
I really h…
Adding my 2 pence to the BBM convo - I stopped going because I feel as though they take their time to acknowledge your presence. I understand that it is probably because they want to complete an order before taking a new one, but they could just loo…
Happy to donate, though I won't remember to unless we meet in person. I know you work a lot on this, so I'm very much down.
Let's set up a date. Pounds N Pints, and such.
Yeah, I am curious about how many people actually sleep there. Those sitting on the beds in the morning seem to be different than those sitting there in the afternoon and at night. Not to mention, the food donations - and MONEY - seem to go untouche…
@rikki just so you know I popped in today and they asked for my opinion on the coffee, saying people had found it too strong. Just ask for it a little weaker than normal and it is perfect.
Interesting! Wonder if we will see an impact under the bridge. I have a feeling something sketchy is going on in one of the flats on Albert Rd as well - I’ve noticed more idle bodies hanging around drinking on the corner a block up from Jack’s
UPDATE: Finally was able to cook up some of the veg I brought home. The spinach is just... beautiful. The garlic? Never had something so fresh and tasty. About to cook up some potatoes. I'm so pleased. 100 thanks, Ned.
Annoying noise, but even more annoying was the absolute mess SGR was in this morning overturned bins, planters, torn-open bin bags, and bottles everywhere.
...Maybe I'm officially 'old.'
I'm with miss Annie.
I'm a properly broke student but really want to support this market. Was loving the coffee, and I dug the wine guy.
Slightly annoyed that I bought £9 cheese to support the market, only to find out it was secretly vegan.
Rega…
