I am a big fan of Nice Ham. but not ocnvinvced we need it listing. if I were to be so lucky as to have a Nice Ham Shop open within a 5 mile radius of the HatHouse I would have sniffed it out long before it found its way on to mn. and when I go to strange places I forego nice ham for the weekend. or if visting friends I insist they source it.

How do you know all 75000 dont want nice ham shops listed?

Have any of those 74992 members come forward to say they dont want those preferences?

Is mumsnet really ruled by the silent majority????

Ok, so lets get this straight - there's you (Ocd), Beety and Dottydot and possibly ggirl (though possibly she's more concerned about the lack of nice ham shops in her vicinity than whether they are on Mumsnet local - apologies ggirl if I'm being obtuse). SueW and Cappucino (surprise, surprise) want nice coffee shop listings, SueJonez would prefer a nice bread shop option and Twiglett is all for sweeties being represented - you call that a quorum?

(ps, and in no way wishing to disregard your preferences, we have 75000 members)

Can you class Tesco's Yorkshire Ham as nice ham?

We have lots of Ye Olde sweetie shops and market stalls though.

PMSL at this thread, Cod i love you.

Twiglett · 23/03/2007 17:37

so where are we supposed to put our Charlie Bucket style olde fashioned sweetie shoppe .. it has glass jars on shelves behind the counter AND ration books that you can buy for the children

it is a shop that sells NICE SWEETIES

(you can see parents dragging their kids inside and the kids kicking and screaming cos all they want is a mars bar from budgens )

Nbg · 23/03/2007 17:37

I added deli/coffee shop/art gallery under 'Pubs/restaurants'

Well it is. You can buy something to eat and drink there. And nice ham. And quiche and cheese.

Dottydot · 20/03/2007 19:55

I can't eat nice bread any more... Haven't had a croissant for 5 months! (wish I could say the same about chocolate...)

suejonez · 20/03/2007 19:55

STAY AWAY from the croissants Dotty!!!

Dottydot · 20/03/2007 19:54

Ahem. That was meant to say "our nice ham shop". Am getting far too excited about this.

Dottydot · 20/03/2007 19:54

Our nice ham also sells nice bread - bagels and croissants and loaves and nice coffee!!! Maybe the shops have to sell a minimum of 3 nice things to get in...

suejonez · 20/03/2007 19:53

in that case, can I have a nice bread category please? Only eat about 2 slices of ham a week

Cappuccino · 20/03/2007 19:51

if you do manage to grind her down re nice ham I would like a nice coffee category

this is all much more vital to day-to-day survival than ham; who on earth gets up and has a morning ham?

nailpolish · 20/03/2007 19:47

to get nice ham

buy from butcher and cook it yerself

easy

suejonez · 20/03/2007 19:46

maybe we could agree that you post nice ham shops as "attraction" with some kind of code - maybe "the pigs are flying early" in teh description to indicate a good ham shop
