#club5050 Little Creatures Brewery
When you live in a popular city like London trust me you are never short of family and friends who love to pay you a visit.
Same for Barcelona, Spain as per my friend Rosaria who started getting less visitors though when she moved to Lille, France.
Then she moved again, this time to Montpellier, France. I might see her later in the year.
So I met friends by King's Cross Station here in London today. We decided to have pizza and beer for lunch before heading to Islington to have more fun in the city.
A ten minute walk took us to the Little Creatures Brewery where we managed to get a table without having booked, just. The brewery is based right by Regent’s Canal.
To get here we walked through Coal Drops Yard which is a fantastic quirky area ideal to take away a coffee from.
In the early 1980s the warehouses and the other industrial premises began to be used for, mostly illegal, parties.
From 1991 to 2008 Bagley's, one of London's largest clubs, was located right here, at the southern end of the Eastern Coal Drops. The Rolling Stones filmed the promotional video for their Brixton Academy live version of Like a Rolling Stone here in September 1995.
Prince performed at an unforgettable after-party here in 1993. After a shooting incident in 2003 though, the club changed name to the creative Canvas where Madonna's Sorry video was filmed in 2006. Another club The Cross opened in the former Coal Offices and lower arches where talented DJs played trendy music.
All clubs here however closed in 2008 and nowadays the area, still charming and full of character, is quite good for shopping. Here you can try and buy anything from vintage overpriced outfits to unique records and even terrariums.
The place was buzzing today no matter it was just an ordinary weekday around lunchtime. Many people have a few pints or half pints before catching a train somewhere. Others treat themselves to drinks and snacks on arrival in London.
You can easily order using their app so you don't have to queue at the bar. There are plenty of craft beers to choose from. I went for an IPA, Voodoo Ranger, followed by a citrus session IPA.
The sticky baby pork ribs with coriander and chilli we all shared were to die for. It took a while for the pizzas to arrive which we were barely able to finish. They were thin and crispy with lots of melted cheese on.
I chose the barbecue pulled pork pizza, which is actually something we do at home too but we have the meat in burger buns. I loved the jalapenos and onion on it.
I hope you had something tasty for lunch today too in the company of a friend or a colleague.
Just as a point of reference #steemexclusive means only on Steem...
Greetings @steemcurator01 Thanks for reminding but these are all photos I took in the brewery and I have only posted them on the Steemit platform. That's why I have used #steemexclusive. I am not blogging anywhere else really. If you think you have seen the photos elsewhere please let me know so I am able to get to the bottom of this. Many thanks.
Take a look on Hive...
Thank you ever so much @steemcurator01 for pointing this out to me but the account on Hive is a fake. I have NOT signed up there and I have NO intention of doing so. I contribute only to the Steemit platform and I currently post in the WORLD OF XPILAR community only where I have been treated like a Queen and I have been consistently supported by @worldofxpilar and @xpilar.
This unfortunately is just another identity theft which reminds me of @quentindeschamps So I do thank @stef1 who wrote a detailed post then and I now know what the best way forward is. If there is anything else you can do in the meantime to help me deal with this quicker, please do and it will be greatly appreciated. I will fill in the Hive abuse report form and hopefully it will not take long for them to resolve it.
To be honest I even remember @o1eh suggesting that users like me who have no account on Hive create one so just the avatar name never gets stolen. But even this seemed unfair to me at the time. However now I am in a worse position with somebody just copying and pasting my content there. Shame on such people who will be better off creating their own content instead of wasting time stealing somebody else's.
So the @petface on Hive is not me! Please @apnigrich @playfulfoodie do not support this account and if there is anybody you know on Hive and can report this to, please be so kind to do so. This is a total imposer who doesn't even bother replying to a single comment as I can see and decided to start doing this a month ago. This is a crime and we need to stop it, prevent it from happening to other users too. Any tips on what else I can do @the-gorilla? I like your new avatar by the way.
I wish I could just carry on working on my next #steemexclusive post right now rather than having to deal with this. Anyway, I am certainly not giving up and I will carry on working hard here. I do hope that when I wake up tomorrow this identity theft issue will be already resolved. Cheers.
It looks like @stef1 has taken care of the HIVE problem 🙂
Neoxian appears to be an alternative front-end to HIVE so once HIVE is taken care of, that will be too.
I've created an account on Blurt for you so that your content won't appear there. I have the Keys saved and will send them over if you want them (just let me know how to send them over, I'll keep them safe until you ask).
Thanks 🙂
It does indeed. Her day must have started even earlier than ours! Bless her. Thanks a million @stef1 for reporting the fake petface account for me on Hive. It has still not been muted though but I hope that they would deal with this as soon as possible. I have also filled in the report abuse form and I messaged them on their Discord support channels too. So far @asgarth from PeakD's support have only asked me to reconfirm the whole thing which I did.
Thank you ever so much @the-gorilla for creating a Blurt account for me. I would like to have the keys please. Not that I intend to start blogging there for the time being but you never know. What would be the best way to send them over? Discord? Email? Skype? Twitter? Let me know please and I will send you my details. I feel like the pyjama girl on this year's Apprentice who was given the domains for her future online shop.
Imagine then as this became quite a popular scam now with the duplicate accounts on Hive, the next move of the scammers might be creating accounts like petfaceofficial for instance. But let's not give them ideas. I bet some even use a software that copies and pastes content so they don't have to do all this manually.
Hi, @petface. I didn't even know there was a similar account there.
One would think that at the beginning of January your account was split from Steem to Hive, but then you had not participated on Steem yet.
I'll know it's not you! But I'll take a look - what's going on there? And I'll warn everyone!
And after reading @steemcurator01 's comment on your post, I'm interested in checking again whether the account is operational or not. And it turned out to be true. He has taken photos in my post and even at the same time as my article. @nadiaturrina account on Hive is fake (not mine).
Dear @petface, I also realized after this incident that these people are also using my account. Just like your situation, this account was created 1 month ago. I didn't think this situation would even occur to me, it's really quite frustrating. I reached the community admin from discord and also wrote this situation to hiwatchers in discord. But even dealing with it is annoying.
I tagged you in this post, but if you haven't seen it, you can check out the steps I followed.

Thank you ever so much @steemcurator01 for bringing the fake Hive petface account to my attention. I see that the latest post has been now downvoted and its earnings have been zeroed, screenshot below. Thanks a million @stef1 for reporting the scammer on Hive early this morning. I see that @the-gorilla even upvoted your comment there. Thanks a lot my friends @o1eh, @ozenozge and @apnigrich for being there for me and helping me out in resolving this issue. On the bright side I see that this fake account has been operating on Hive for less than a month. So very well done to the curators and moderators here on Steemit for double checking the exclusivity of the content shared. I myself will do everything possible to also warn other users here about this unfortunately trendy scam on Hive. Cheers and I wish you all a hopefully relaxing afternoon.
Voted with my 1HP 🤣
the-gorilla#4289 is my Discord and I'll hand over your Blurt keys.
Thank you ever so much 🤝 I really appreciate it 👩💻 I messaged you on Discord. Last but not least Happy Easter! I hope that you are enjoying the nice weather. We are having a picnic here in London.
It's amazing - I think I've already said we had our 1st BBQ of the year yesterday and I slow roasted a half leg of lamb for lunch. I wanted to take a photo of the spread because I was so proud of it but the family had pretty much destroyed the lot before I'd sat down!!!
the-baby-gorilla was 1 on Thursday so the in-laws are down for the weekend - unfortunately, no exciting day out to write about this time.
Happy Easter 🥚
Good morning. I love a bank holiday Monday. You mentioned a barbecue indeed.
Welcome to my world. I wish you managed to take a photo. Did you eat in the garden? With time they will get used to it and hopefully start giving you a few minutes for photos. A few impatient hands will always be in the way.
Happy belated birthday to the-baby-gorilla 🥳
I would never have thought that this could be done!
Well, how do people have thoughts in their heads about such filthy things?
Ohh super i'm glad the issue is solved 🥰i hope they found a solution for this scammers
Hello! I can confirm that I previously advised @petface to create an account on Hive so that it would not be done by someone else. She told me that she only works on Steemit and that creating an account on Hive would be unfair to her readers. So I'm sure the Hive account was created by a scammer.
Good morning @o1eh I hope you are well. Thanks a million for engaging with my case which I wish to nobody. When you have no account on Hive, reporting a scammer seems to take forever. I was on Discord with them and I kept writing about it. But as @the-gorilla just pointed out to me @stef1 already reported the fake petface account. I do hope that the Hive admins mute the scammer pretty quick. Thanks a lot again for responding and stay safe my friend.
It is a pity when honest and conscientious work is stolen. I wish you to resolve this situation as soon as possible.
Semoga saja anda bisa memberi perhatian kepada saya, agar saya tetap semangat untuk aktif d platform ini. jujur selama ini sangat kecewa karna anda kurang memperhatikan saya.
Salam hormat saya buat anda😇❤️
I just googled my Steemit avatar name and found this https://www.neoxian.city/@petface/ This is not me! Somebody has been copying my posts and as far as I can see this started about a month ago. Any assistance on how to get it taken down is greatly appreciated. Thank you for your support so far @steemcurator01
I really can't understand why so many places choose to serve chips in a cup. And I'm also curious what that white stuff is that they appear to have dumped in the middle of every dish...? The pizza looks great... I'd eat around that bit in the middle though.
Thanks for sharing this post, I really enjoy the photos. The place and food looks so nice 💙
You have another DELICIOUS WALK. Maybe I'll do a family walk to the restaurant tomorrow too.
Hello Friend. You enjoyed a day full of very good food and company. God bless you, thank you for sharing your experience.
Happy afternoon. I loved the crispy cheese pork ribs.
It's great to be able to share with friends and enjoy a beer and delicious food. London is very beautiful.
the most beautiful and interesting photos
