Hot sasperralla in East Lane market, that bought back some childhood memories....


There used to be a shop on Walworth Road on the left heading towards Camberwell, after Browing St, but before East St, I think, which I recall being so out of place.


It sold, what I guess I thought at the time was upmarket goods and furniture and it had wonderful carved chess sets in the window and what I realise now as pretty naff, an ornament with water running in droplets backlit.


I used to stand for what seemed hours looknig in the window, wanting one of the chess sets......


Cheers

I like this line;


Kings Collage Hospital ?were here luv?, the Conductor gets the pushchair and unfolds it in on the path,


It reminds me of being on the Routemaster buses when conductors used to take pushchairs out of the compartment by the exit(behind where they stood) and unfold it on the pavement for mothers......it's not as long ago as the trams but a nice memory.

    • I'd be tempted to put up some sort of fence  to delineate the area and see what happens. Probably nothing.
    • Poundland have been there just over two years. 
    • Has anybody here bought some land from the council to become part of their garden? There are helpful guidelines on the Southwark website here including a PDF with associated costs, however the "valuation" element has absolutely no guidelines. It could be £500 or £50,000. You will already have spent £1000 on the process before finding out what they will charge you for the land - which would certainly be frustrating if it's not affordable for you. The land in question is a tiny patch immediately attached to the front of my property, approx 4 meters wide x 1 meter long. Would like to put a fence there to separate from the pavement and allow some privacy, keep the bins more tidy. The land is of no value to anybody else and is neglected currently - the council seems to have to stopped maintaining this area between the pavement and the houses on our street.
    • I suppose wind could have blown rubbish out of bins down into the pond. But I also counted three footballs and some smaller balls. Regrettably, there is also what seems to be a large dead carp or waterfowl, hard to tell at distance. I just hope the water quality is okay. I am not clear to what extent the pond is managed.
