If you look at old maps turn of century 1890s Peckham rye, by Rye Hill Park over to the the cemetery were known as the Newlands, I have heard Bellenden road refered to as Peckham village. But as a kid, living in what now is Nunhead it was Peckham, Nunhead village was Nunhead green. I think names to tempt new buyers, and Peckham had a bad name

  6. So these people are above the law they can do what they like? I realise the police are over stretched, and when they do catch criminals, sentences are a joke. But they could at least go through the motions of visiting said house it is disgusting.
  7. What was the purpose of the attack? was it a robbery? or somebody with a grudge.
  8. Awe bless him, hope he is Ok and they catch the mugger
  9. Annie be careful about not paying All councils can waste lots of money to take you to court for a diddling amount. Try the letter about helping the charity, you may find a sympathetic ear.

    No, sir

    Its a mark of respect, It is nice and proper. They call me mum or mummy even old men, but even mum is a mark of respect in many cultures. as Diable said its better than mate or boss
  12. I am old, so carry on as before, with masks. But I am now frightened as the youngsters are all ready throwing caution to the wind. More worried now than beginning of lock down, I have had two jabs and will have whatever boosters are recommended. I will feel more of a prisoner tomorrow.

  15. Spartacus hello if you do nothing you cant be caught, Not everybody has a computer, if it is important you will get the bog standard letter. I had a phone call telling me my national insurance number had been used fraud, on my mobile I hung up, this is the new one, Wouldn't worry me about the electorial list because I dont know who to vote for.
  16. Sainsburys used to do Cotton candy, they were nice muscatel again nice and sable not bad, Lidl also would get sable but Sable aren't in Lidls or sainsburys been going to Lidl to look for them I wondered if it was a freight issue or brexit,
  17. Since Brexit does anyone notice, or is it me, the lack of decent grape in Sainsburys. there used to be the bog standard red/black green and organic, and at least 2 or 3 named varieties a little more expensive, but worth the extra, They still have the bog standard, I have been using Sainsburys at Beckenham, not Bell Green since Covid but the baskets are empty, hardly any variety of any fruit at all. Also does anyone one know where you can get Kent nap cherries
