  1. Spooky - now I've signed the petition I've received two PMs from Tessa Jowell!
  2. Mike b said: "Do we have any MPs actually living in the area that might care about this?" You're havin' a laugh, surely.
  3. Never had a prob. to date getting into town by train/bus/bike and shank's pony
  4. Don't laugh at me cos I'm a fool [ed: spelling - too much wine]
  5. Eileen can be very irritating/narrow minded but I'm with her on the tram thing. Where they propose to put the terminus would wipe out an integral part of Peckham including artisans studios, historic buildings and several churches, which might be a good thing in some folk's books, but I think would be an absolute shame. We've already destroyed all the art deco buildings in Peckham - let's leave something for the future.
  6. Hear, hear. I love GLR/London Live but could never stand that ******** Gaunt.
  7. My experience of Peckham police is that they are lovely. Various encounters over the years from drunken (and inadvertent naked exposure but we'll gloss over that) and professional contact. There are some jobsworths but a lot of them are truly caring and jolly nice.
  8. Exquisite taste Cap'n.
  9. Couple of the shots (4 and last one) look rather like the streets around Pepys Road, New Cross. Shot 3 looks like one of the streets of Meeting House Lane/Friary Road area. Just guesses I'm afraid.
  10. Which is where Bodicea is buried having topped herself on Peckham Rye if you believe the legends.
  11. As long as they don't go for East Peckham which is currently a very pretty village in Kent
  12. Briliant reporting Anotherpaul - I was in the room with you.
  13. Wishing Well usually good for football, don't know about rugby.
  14. First two look like Heygate flats just near East Street, Walworth. Last two look like Hilly Fields, Brockley. ???
  15. Look Regan, I don't give a toss who you have in your bed - show us the clip"
  16. Just an aside... Does anyone else think it's rather stupid of BA to use "leaving on a jet plane" as its theme tune considering how John Denver died?
  17. Dear Mockney That's not weird, that's essential listening at least once a month.
  18. I believe that was Mark Twain. I have a 13 year old who has been a stroppy teenager from birth. Only cast iron thing that works is revoking mobile phone privileges or out and out monetary bribes. good luck
  19. Just re-read this post - should have done that first. I see Spangle's objection is to 'manufacture' of babies. Sorry to confuse the issue; I should have kept my nose out.
  20. Not open sundays but the telephone may offer an alternative RSPCA Camberwell Clinic 1 Camberwell Station Road Camberwell London SE5 9JJ Tel: 0207 274 6995 Website: www.rspca.org.uk Extra Information: Opening Times: Tuesday/Thursday/Friday 2pm to 3.30pm, Wednesday 10am to 11.30am Also PDSA clinic in New Cross PDSA PetAid hospital The Philippa and George Adams Centre 6 Amersham Vale New Cross London SE14 6LD Tel: 020 8691 0577 but I think on Sundays the Charlton branch is the nearest.
  21. Hullo chaps Just to try and smooth things over. I think the argument used by most religious objectors to IVF is not the fact that it is medical intervention but that in the placing of several fertilised eggs in the womb, invariably other fertilised eggs are destroyed. Many people believe that life begins at conception, therefore this would be seen as killing. This is not a judgement call on anyone out there, merely a belief held by many people who are not nutters but genuinely think that is the case. I am not saying this to open up a can of worms, neither am I proselytising, neither does this need to provoke a moral/religious debate. I think where this is strongly felt then no exceptions can logically be made, however sad the circumstances, eg, after chemotherapy, which is perhaps where Spangle's argument fell down. In all things I think we need to respect each other's views and beliefs without ridicule. It is often tritely quoted but I do think this may be the right place to remind us of the quote attributed (rightly or wrongly) to Voltaire: "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."
  22. She's a good sarf london gal
  23. Umbrellas. Can't stand them, think they should be outlawed. Always at eye-poking height wielded by selfish bods who don't want to spoil their hair. And last time I looked there were no fairways on Lordship Lane. How cathartic. (edited to remove swear word) (edited to avoid offending Ben)
