East Dulwich in the Telegraph

[Judge]

Saw this on the telegraph website and through it may be of interest to the forum:

Telegraph

This is the fourth or fifth article I've seen in as many months about SE22. Not including the comedy 'Forest Hill' phone-in on BBC Radio London last week where a FH Estate agent described the delights of drinking in Forest Hill ("Yeah.. you could start in Black Cherry, move on the The Bishop..")

And.. a nice bit of free publicity for Property In's weird ?1.7mil mansion (opposite the Co-Op)

The Cheese Shop on LL was mentioned on London Live this morning.

[*Bob*]

Luke Bateman, 30, a composer, is house-hunting in SE22.

With a budget of ?800,000, he wants a three- or four-bedroom house.

That's all we need. Another loafer.

Less pretentious than Crocuh End? Didn't realise Crouch End was so [edited so as to not cause offece]

Never mind the telegraph charting ED's upward mobility, i've just spotted the ultimate in unexpected gentrification ? the plough cafe on the corner of crystal palace road and lordship lane now has decking in the front so that workers can scoff their bacon butties al fresco. and have a fag with their eggs presumably. also another sure sign that the parade opposite the bombay bicycle club is coming up in the world.

You've got to see the funny side.

People in SE22 claim not to be pretentious but then moan about Foxtons moving in and ruining the 'village feel'.

hey *bob*, good loafing with a budget of 800k!

[Dodo1]

ED also gets a mention in today's Standard

[snorky]

The evil Blue Mountain got a bit of free PR as well.

Grrrrrrr
