Re: Good Energy and Ecotricity ... sadly all you're paying for is their tiny amount of generation being put on the grid (less than 10%) ... you're still actually consuming electricity generated from big nasty coal-fired power stations = you're creat…
... or just slow down ... take a deep breath and relax ... London life is constantly running at a million miles an hour ... take advantage of your 30 seconds 'off' ... at the end of the day you're only delaying your journey by 30 seconds!
Shopping in SGR Tescos these days is PAINFUL. If Sainsburys is going to give them enough competition to raise their game then so much the better.
I will miss Woody's though.
I remember the first day they openned ... I went in with my N.Irish girlf…

At the back they've decorated a fair bit and added tables and chairs. You can tell they've worked hard to get this place open ... and it's nice to see that their focus is …
Did Bob Crowe ever have the support of the workers? I heard only 14% of the RMT chose to strike ... BC is definitely up there in my hate list (alongside with Nick Griffin - but for different reasons obviously)
I've only tried a Venezia pizza once ... easily the worst pizza I've eaten in some time ... I think I wrote about it in the Pizza delivery thread.
On an aside (topic change alert) I noticed Porchetta has bricked up the room at the back .. I wondere…
There was a car set on fire on Blythwood road a couple of weeks ago - obviously stolen and dumped. Scary thing was it 'exploded' ... which is how I discovered it (my windows banged with the pressure).

It's dry, it's warm, you can't get run over my buses or taxis ... OK so you're only getting the high street shops, but at least they're all in one place.
It's a big shopping centre ... plain and simple ... why would you expect to find humour or soul?
