She sounds a very rude person Henry and I'm really sorry she offended you.

She's lucky you didn't say anything about her polluting the air with her cigarette smoke!

Need to get toilets in there. Cup coffee there last week and had to go home to have a pee. I would have picked up a few cream cakes and stuff them in her face.

Henry mate, I think you might have mis-understood the conversation here. Nobody would say something like that with the intention of insulting you.
As you say, you've been there plenty of times before. You'd know if they weren't nice people.
They have a good client base and I don't think I've ever heard a complaint against them. I use the place myself and have always been happy with it.
With regard to the toilets, they are dependant on the Apollo for that. They are communal and are a disgrace which is why the bars (Monk, Shires etc) put their own in.

still it no way to treat a customer.. i post the same thing on facebook. and quite a few people reply saying they even smoke inside the kitchen when they make the sweets. i never knew that. gland i´m not going anymore then!!

How exactly would she manage that then? The Victory is a few doors away.

She's either working in the shop or she isn't. If she isn't then she's entitled to do as she wishes in her own time.

This is starting to look like an anti-smoking thread.

I've never smoked but I don't begrudge anyone sitting outside a bar having a fag. It's their life after all.

wasn't my intention Toto, but now you mention it.....

I think I felt for Henry the woman was so rude.If someone is overweight (and I'm not suggesting our friend is cos I've not met him) then that's up to them and they're not inflicting anything on anyone else. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said for passive smoke.

Agreed and indeed I was in no way trying to trivialise what happened. If this lady insulted Henry then fair enough but again, I would say that things can be mis-understood and Henry and the girl clearly know each other if he's a regular.

So, let's assume that she did insult him. She was totally wrong to do it and he should take it to her boss.

Now then, what's that got to do with smoking? Or for that matter, sitting outside the Victory?

A complaint is a complaint. No good adding bits on is it? :respect:

I know this is of topic but the Appolo Centre is in serious need of renovation (I know they are re-tileling the central floors)
Maybe if the free-holders of the empty locals lowered their rents for a couple of years,new life could be breathed into them,otherwise
i can see more open locals closing down!!!!

True on both counts.

Yes it's off topic (sorry Henry ) and yes the Apollo could do with some tlc. Not least the communal toilets which are a magnet for every scum bag junkie and all round baddies in the vicinity. The lanlords couldn't care less.

Amazing isn't it, that because that member of staff was rude to Henry, we all now know the Apolo is in need of renovation and the toilets a no go area.
Now I've never been there but if I were considering it,I'd now give it a wide berth.If I were the woman's boss I'd be pretty cross.

On the plus side Henry, if you need a donut fix, isn't there another bakery ( same owner) on the road towards the church square:)

This must have been taken in the wrong context, I know all the girls in there, and they are all smashing, and very helpful.

I agree Myra have known the girl for years and that's not her style, she likes a joke but would not be offensive.

I go there a lot always nice and friendly but if you have a complant just have a word with the owner who works there down stairs and I am sure he will sort it out but to ask people not to go is a bit sad for something that may of been a bit of banter

On reflection I don't think Henry was serious in asking people not to go there, he was just wanting let off steam at what he saw as insulting behaviour and it seems he was genuinely hurt.

From comments made it seems the staff are pleasant and friendly but it seems unlikely Henry will go there again, but if anybody does go and is insulted also....well you have been warned !!:)
