people say hello to strangers on the Forum all the time, so why not on the street? I often stay good morning to people in my area that I don't know and sooner or later you find they are no longer strangers... I never find people seem to think it odd, they seems seem friendly back, that's how communities get to be friendly places... I say go for it Mikki...

I blacked out today when I was at Cafe Homemade in Barry Road, everybody was so kind, the waitress (thank you for the biscuit and tlc), the customers, and especially the man called Stephen who helped me across to the garage in such a wonderfully gentlemanly fashion (hope your coffee didn't get too cold)... also a big thank you to the paramedic who (from what I can remember) took hold of the situation in a really professional way), I am indebted to you. I am OK. My friend Sas was totally wonderful and got me the the doctors... I am at home resting now and sure I will soon bounce back... I always suspected the world was full of wonderful people and now I know it is... thank you for your spontaneous acts of kindness!!! xxCC

I agree... House of Tippler... I organised a drinks/tapas thing there before Christmas for my Backgammon crowd and Tim, the owner, made great job of looking after us, we had a lovely time... food was good too...

Yes, go to the Peckhamplex, it's getting better and better... It was bought up by John Reiss from Soho Premier PR, and he has brought in a new(ish) manager, Marriane Gray (a film journalist) to add more indie and art house films, so you get the mainstream movies and some more low budget arty stuff too... use or lose it as they say... we are brilliantly lucky to have it!!! Get yourselves on the Newsletter email list and you'll get all the updates... Peckham Managers I saw a great documentary about The Birth of british Ska last year and they linked up with the Bussey building's CLF Arts Cafe and did a Ska dj set as a kind of after party... it's all happening in Peckham... come on over ED'ers, you're welcome to join the party xxCC

Spot on Lndonmix... who gives a damn whether you live in SE22 or SE15, it's totally daft to try and compare one against the other, both areas are brilliant and offer a different vibe, but you can, of course, enjoy both... it's not like you need a passport or anything to go from one to the other!!!!

oh and brilliant transport too... http://www.bellenden.net/SRUG-maps http://www.facebook.com/ilovepeckham?v=wall&filter=1 and the Rye itself and the t-shirts and the people and the sense of community... well you get it, I am quite pro the area :-) http://www.cafeontherye.co.uk http://www.facebook.com/CapturedOnTheRye http://capturedontherye.com/2012/02/09/captured-on-the-rye-2/made-in-peckham/ -

shhh... don't tell as soul, hipper than hip for those in the know... Franks, Bussey, Hannah Barry, Royal Court, CLF Arts Cafe, arthouse and indie films at PeckhamPlex, Bar Story, Montpelier's Back Room Cinema, Begging Bowl, Bold Tendencies, Sunday Painter, The Old Waiting Room and that's about 5% of it... AND then you have all the amazing multi-cultural influences, best African Fabrics, Chinese Supermarket, Khan's where you can everything from DIY tools to Baklava, the persian shop Persepolis, the list goes on and on... only worry is, now we have the Ginger line, that it will get over hyped and the whole well-kept wonderful secret will be spoilt as 'fools rush in'!!! http://peckhamresidents.wordpress.com/2011/08/04/independent-films-at-peckhams-rye-lane-cinema/ http://boldtendencies.com http://www.guardian.co.uk/artanddesign/2011/jun/24/discovering-peckham-art-scene http://www.thesundaypainter.co.uk/studios/ http://www.yemmytextiles.co.uk http://foratasteofpersia.co.uk -

I have always found the staff in there really nice and friendly, I pop in there for a treat every now and then... 'tight lipped' is so far from my experience of the place that I am wondering if we are even talking about the same place!!!! and their cakes are genius http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-gl7gDUD7GEU/T60CHvGFhJI/AAAAAAAAHaY/6v1iQxEOwEM/s1600/Cake+Genius+Cookbook+cover.jpg
