...who escorted me close to my home tonight following getting completely lost around the back streets of Peckham on a diversion due to the very sad stabbing this evening. I was beginning to get quite distressed until you appeared.


THANK YOU! I hope you (and your boss) see this.

Are you SERIOUS FatherJack? That is AWESOME. Thank you SO much. He was such a lovely man; very conscientious and walked with me quite a while until I recognised my surroundings (which turned out to be very close to home). He clearly loves his job. I am sure my "detour" made him late too...he was on his way to check into a Station. Bless him. I really hope his superiors appreciate him. He stands out.


@ Sue: thank you! (Glad to see your "smileys" are back...your posts weren't the same without them :)) !)


@ Huguenot: if it had been you that had appeared, I'd have thrown a manky pork pie at you and run in the opposite direction! AHAHAHAHHAAAAAA...


@ Vik: United and Christmas hats have similarities, I grant you, but they are definitely NOT the same. Tutt Tutt!

We shall fight with confidence and strength...whatever the cost may be,

we shall fight on the beaches,

we shall fight at the football ground,

we shall fight on the pitch and in the streets,

we shall fight in the Etihad,

we shall fight at the Theatre of Dreams,

we shall fight on the terraces,

WE SHALL NEVER SURRENDER!


See you on the 9th December! ;-)

    • "Dedicated to the purpose-built student accommodation sector. PBSA News is the leading source of news, insights and analysis for professionals, investors and stakeholders in the purpose-built student accommodation sector. With a mission to provide the latest information and foster collaboration within the rental community."   The PBSA take on the strength of the market seems much more upbeat than does the govt. research paper. Perhaps they are right or perhaps it is in their interests to talk up the market?    
    • I think a lot of people here are just speculating about empty student accommodation properties. Student accommodation developments are very popular because they provide really great rates of return for the owner. A large student accommodation owner, Unite Students, saw 97.5% occupancy across their assets in the 2024/2025 academic year. They have many properties in London; https://pbsanews.co.uk/2024/10/09/unite-students-reports-record-occupancy-rates-in-q3-2024-update/ Here's a bit from CBRE on PBSA properties in London from May 2024: https://www.cbre.co.uk/press-releases/london-plan-policy-fails-to-deliver-affordable-student-accommodation - "According to new research by CBRE and QX Global, the gap between demand for PBSA and available supply in London currently stands at 100,000 – 105,000 full-time students, underscoring how demand for student housing has outpaced supply." - The development pipeline in London isn't keeping up with the demand. Ultimately this development wouldn't be built if student accommodation wasn't in demand. It's proximity to the station means that a student could get to any number of universities easily in a short span of time. Is it ideal? No. Would more affordable housing be better? Yes. Is speculating about channel migrants occupying the space uninformed idiocy? Absolutely.
