Well now i've won my 3/3 in the Rugby Prediction games, I'm ready to apply my technique back on the football :)

Do you get to keep the trophy after your third victory? :) Thanks Dr - see you all next year

Well - i didn't do well with that bunch!

In reality, I think a lot of the gentrification had already happened by 2002

Done mine - as Rendell said I think these are all tough calls...

Another point is by modern middle class standards most of 70s/80s London would be considered rough - including some of what are now massively wealthy areas

Yes - so basically, as this thread shows, anyone who actually was here back in the day is laughing at the 'rough' myth because it is complete bullshit!

East Dulwich rough in 2002? That's hysterical - fook me some people have had sheltered lives

For some people Working Class equals rough....they also don't like hostile tones and cockney accents I reckon

feck all today on plenty of bets too - a poor Cheltenham for me :(

Yes because areas outside gentrified ones are beacons of civility and courtesy - sounds like another Guardian reader talking upper crap to me. Middle class guilt crap.

Poor start for me today - Mick is there I think

Small profit today but still down overall..

2/2 :)

White man, black car - according to Heber School text

huzzah - a winner

There used to be some others on here but now it feels like it's just me who think that East Dulwich's poor transport links are part of its appeal - far less transient and more local. If we had a tube for eg we'd soon be like Clapham North - full of Saffas and Aussies..whereas we only get the quality one's of course :). Fooks given about SE22's transport by me? None. - i just sit on the 40 most mornings up to E&C and enjoy it. The tube from Elephant is the sh1tiest part of my commute by far!

After a couple of pretty poor days - I've decided to follow your mates tips today Mick....I won't blame you if it goes bad (too much) :)

I've dine a few of them Mick.. BunkOffEarly Label de Obeauxx & Singleformpayment Brianpower

I like the Dibble approach, although iy has limited success

Bid BAD Barry

I remember when the rookeries were knocked down to make way for Trafalgar Square and Seven Dials used to be a cut throats paradise look at it now...etc, etc, etc ZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
