Good to see several posters expressing their disgust at the price of this brunch whilst also commenting on their own trips to actual Berlin the costs of which are presumably less than the £22 which is more than some people in Brixton spend on their groceries for a year etc etc etc.
 
Do you get a red hat with that job? And an orange shovel?

Yep. Hi-viz, shovel, snow grips, gloves and true grit. It's all very glamorous.

People taking an actual holiday? OMG!!! Well, that clearly completely nullifies any criticism, comments or opinions they may hold about food and restaurant-related businesses opening in their area.

After all, if they took a holiday once....
 
Well I think it would be fair to say the drains are fucked in Electric Avenue again given the size of the hole being dug at the moment. They've been pumping on and off overnight for a couple of weeks but cancelling the market is quite a big step. This is the deepest hole I've seen since the great summer of raw sewage running down the street in 2005 :D
If anyone wants any free hot water, there's a veritable geyser bubbling out of the side of Southwyck House, 24/7.

Yawn. At some point in my life I have been able to afford to go to Berlin. Now I'm now longer entitled to an opinion. Fuck off.

And actually my criticism wasn't the price, it was that I didn't think I'd enjoy it. I couldn't afford it anyway because I haven't got a job. Stop making assumptions about people.

You're missing the point. Widely.

If you've no objections to the price then I'm not sure why you've assumed you're amongst the "posters expressing their disgust at the price" I mentioned. :confused:

It's almost like you are eager to take offence regardless of what's actually been said.
 
This is the second time that he's started his crap with me recently. I don't want to be part of some bullshit point scoring game against editor. Seriously, your mate needs to back off.
-I can't see how he's started anything with you.

-What bullshit point scoring game against editor?

-Which mate?
 
What's the story with these homes on the corner of Barrington Road/St James's Cres being demolished?

I'm sure it's been discussed before back when the planning application went in.
5.10. The accommodation schedule below identifies the proposed mix of housing units. The
proposed housing mix for both the affordable and market housing broadly responds to the evidence
of need and demand for different sizes of homes identified in the SHMA, the Council’s Housing Strategy and the London Plan.

Affordable % Market %
1 Bed 9 39 1 Bed 24 30
2 Bed 5 22 2 Bed 56 69
3 Bed 9 39 3 Bed 1 1

Total 23 Total 81

5.11. The proposed housing mix is, therefore, in accordance with national and local policy. Furthermore, this approach to housing mix has been agreed with officers through pre-application discussions as a predominance of 2-bed units is fitting to this area.

I am enjoying the current urban themed window display in Morleys department store
which features a "graffiti" backdrop and some impressive life size plastic pitbull type dogs
hopefully they will go to good home once their residency is over and not just into a skip out the back
 
You'd have to read the previous comments to pick up on the subtle bullshit at work here. But really, I've spent more time on this than it deserves already. I'm not going to reply about this again.

I don't think it's subtle, they both have form longer than Lester Piggott. They are relentless and i think at least one of them enjoys inflicting psychological abuse.

They removed the plastic dog poo though. Someone got VERY outraged about that.
