  1. Technically Telegraph Hill also, but only a 5min walk so i still think of it as Nunhead is The Hill Station Cafe. It's fantastic, community run and lots of different events and pop ups happening there all the time.
  2. Flock and heard, the butchers in Bellenden Rd do the best sausages ever which also happen to be gluten free!
  3. Ayres the Bakers in Nunhead sells local honey
  4. Medley's right. Overground, i consider to be the Orange line, of which the services are very frequent. Overground as in National Rail is a different story, 4 trains an hour.
  5. Spotify doesn't rip off artists, labels rip off artists. Digital music makes barely any money for the services that sells them but makes plenty for the labels.
  6. Agree with Ultraburner, house prices are going up all over the SE. We're in the process of selling to move out of London and commute in and looking at properties I naively thought we would have a bit more time but houses are disappearing very quickly indeed. Cash buyers relocating from London are snapping up properties within commuting distance. We still need a mortgage on the property range we're looking at so have been pipped by outright cash buyers on a few properties.
  7. I started looking for a house whilst speaking to agents. I decided which agent to use and then found a house at the weekend and made an offer. Today has been a manic rush of photographers etc coming round with the view of going on the market tomorrow and hopefully selling quickly given the conditions. The house owner has taken their property off the market for one week whilst we find a buyer.
  8. This is the best story i've read on here. Sorry to laugh as i'm sure its a nightmare but it does sound kinda funny when you read it :-)
  9. Eek, I went to Barcelona once and have never been back. I thought it was overpriced and pretty bog standard unfortunately.
  10. Oh my god, this is really awful. I'm pregnant myself and scared about something like this happening. The cowardliness is rock bottom. Hope you are ok.
  11. I would add to my above comment that I never walk around with my phone out but to be fair I don't do this anywhere in London!
  12. I live on Kimberley Avenue, very close to the station, 2min walk. I've lived there for 8 years and touch wood, never been mugged, broken into etc, etc. I may have said the area was rough 8 years ago but no, not now. I use the station everyday, morning and evening, I am female and agree that in the dark the station doesn't look like like the nicest, a bit quiet but I guess I don't have to walk that far to my house. I guess what i'm trying to say is that I feel the safest i've ever probably felt. The area has become a lot more affluent over the years and like ED this could lead to more opportunist muggings, who knows. Feel free to message me if you have any specific questions about the area.
  13. It's not just there, it's been happening a lot in general. I've shared many stories recently with friends over the past few weeks where people don't stop at lights, ignore pedestrian crossings. It really is quite sad that some people don't stop to think about the consequences.
