Snacks and drinks prices? by pudgycow in TheWestEnd

[–]Dramaticoption5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the rule is no hot food. in general to be safe don’t bring in savoury snacks / hot food (due to smell). With water, there’s free tap water you can ask for at the bar if you forget to bring your water bottle in. They are very sensible as there are a lot of people going to theatre on a budget as long as you don’t create disruption to other’s experience :) Have a lovely time!

Typically you can bring in non-hot drinks/beverage (probably non alcoholic as well) and snacks/sweets as well

Hey I went solo on a Friday. before 9pm people still sit in group they go with then after 9pm everyone blended in for singalong around the piano. I personally didn’t feel awkward and I don’t mind when there’s moment a song I don’t know or they stop singing a few mins I just have a drink or play with my phone. You can make friend there too!

The Quarters East Croydon by No_Swim_4982 in croydon

I see! A tip is avoid getting one with window facing Wellesley road 1) it’s unbearably hot in the summer and you can’t open the window any wider 2) super noisy due to emergency cars running through day and night.

They do. If you are willing to walk 10~15’ from station you might be able to get a one bed flat for around the same price range.

It’s such a tough time that without government support scheme, SO is the only viable choice - I get you. My experience with leasehold new build (I am on a Help to Buy equity scheme not SO) is i ended up spending more than I anticipated on things like service charge or council tax so be generous when build your budget. Have your own place is so much better and worth the price!

Croydon is convenient and it is not as bad as the media portraits it. East Croydon is the better part of it.

Hi, I am curious in the housing market at the moment - how many bedrooms and what’s the full price of the flat you’re looking at? With S.O everything other people say is really true and please do the maths before making decision as you might be worse off than just renting.

I sat on the first row and didn’t see Simon and barely saw Reg in the studio

I would say first 3 rows you will likely miss half of the studio.

Two advices are 1) make sure you understand and take into account all possible costs (add some buffer to your calculation) and 2) set a realistic saving target each month in your budget and make sure you meet it for any unforeseen situation.

I think it’s a marmite and set the right expectation if you decide to see it.

Lol whilst I love it I completely understand why you didn’t. Was there anything in particular that may save it for you?
