Re: The Very Official McDonalds (and other fast food outlets) Thread
oh so does silverlink no longer have delivery drivers at it because it was an absolute nightmare last time i went? You really felt you were inconveniencing the drivers by daring to use at is a restaurant. Honestly, not too sure but I know you can't order online from the place at all. It's only 'Sil...

Re: The Very Official McDonalds (and other fast food outlets) Thread
I know there's one up here to cover the McDonalds at Silverlink which is, and always has been, one of the busiest in the country. Believe there's a second one at Byker aswell to cover the Newcastle area even known you can still weirdly order from Byker DT aswell. oh so does silverlink no longer hav...

Re: The Very Official McDonalds (and other fast food outlets) Thread
Although I can't help but wonder if in fact they'd manage if they were using the older kitchen format where they made the most popular items in bulk and put them on the racking. Personally, I always thought the new kitchen format and making every single thing to order was a bad move anyway. The who...

Re: The Very Official McDonalds (and other fast food outlets) Thread
So I made the mistake of trying to get a breakfast to take away from McDonalds on a Saturday. 22 mins it took. For a McMuffin and coffee. Deliveroo and the other apps have killed the efficiency of the kitchens. Although I can't help but wonder if in fact they'd manage if they were using the older ki...

Re: With all the recent inflationary price rises, is there stuff you just won’t pay for now?
Having gigabit broadband would certainly have been a lot more useful to me during Covid times when I was working from home a lot more (in a job that required quite a bit of streaming video). It's less of an issue now and I reckon a few hundred meg would do me fine, though having a symmetrical uploa...

Re: Adverts that irritate and entertain
The Tesco I've got the power advert is infuriating. Goes on far too long. Repeats too often. Awful.
It's a shame because I really liked their weird Christmas adverts last year.

Re: With all the recent inflationary price rises, is there stuff you just won’t pay for now?
Do you feel any real world benefit from gigabit speeds? I'm doing my annual ISP swap shortly and I'm currently debating between Sky 145Mb @ £22.39/month or Sky 500Mb @ £23.89/month (both effective prices after cashback). yes... although there's part of me that wonders if its the wifi 6 rather than ...

Re: With all the recent inflationary price rises, is there stuff you just won’t pay for now?
Virgin Media, waited for the contract to *actually* expire then had a proper go at them. The CityFibre rollout means they can no longer call my bluff on moving to Sky "you'll be happy with 34mb will you?" Now have gigabit and still (some) tv for £45. And the Superhub 5 is actually decent e...

Re: Pres Cafe Watch News and Information Board
Okay, I know Pete's told you all over on the secret forum to put me on ignore. That's fine. I know you don't like it when anyone disrupts your delicate little clique. But is it that difficult to at least listen to an outsider? It's okay. I know where I stand. Bye for now. Xxx. I didn't actually rea...

Re: The rise of the dodgy shop
What about those makeshift launderettes, which are just an unstaffed former fish bar with a couple of coin-ops plonked inside. are these not encouraged by the videos on tiktok that imply you make a fortune from coin operated laundrettes despite the fact its all american and based either in new york...
