For anyone who has wondered why a cemetery needs an open day, here is your chance to find out. Whilst Nunhead cemetery is open every day, open day is an event, with choirs in the chapel, a bug hunt, local interest stalls, guided tours of the cemetery and the chapel crypt, art in the mausoleum, and homemade cakes on the tea stand. It's going to be a lovely sunny day and the trees are looking at their best. Come and have a wander round.

Twice in the last two weeks we have had police knocking on our door early evening wanting to be sure our back garden was undisturbed. In both cases houses further up the road have been broken into from the back and ipads/ laptops etc taken. Seems to be happening during the day. Don't know about the first instance, but yesterday the PC said it was a back window broken. Just a reminder to lock gates / be aware of unusual noise/ activity in gardens.

Renata, Your summary reflects my experiences. Yesterday I couldn't get on to the 8-42 at Peckham and, as I have a London terminals season ticket, the alternative routes to get me to work more or less on time cost me money - getting a tube from Victoria to my destination (I usually walk from Blackfriars). Thank you and hoping we see improvement soon. Ann

I use the Peckham/ Blackfriars train every morning - usually the 8-42. It has been crammed every morning this week and was particularly bad this morning when the 8-36 was apparantly cancelled (no information on the platform - it showed on the indicator board but just didn't show up). I have also noticed that the 18-04 back to Peckham from Blackfrias has got much busier since Christmas. (Long time lurker - it took the trains to finally make me comment!).
