I grew up in East Dulwich and lived at 57 Underhill Road from 1943-1966. In 1972, the property was sold to a developer by my father (who is now 102 years old) and a block of flats was built on the site. I wondered whether anybody had photos of that part of Underhill Road before the flats were built. Our garden extended back from the house and then turned to the left, coming out in a lane off Belvoir Road. It was a large plot, extending behind 51, 53 and 55 Underhill Road and there was a magnificent walnut tree in the garden. I attended St Anne's Private School in Melford Road from 1949-1952 and Heber Road School from 1952-1954. I then passed the 11-plus exam and went to Sydenham High School from 1954-1961. I'm researching my past to provide some information from my grandchildren's history project and would be grateful for any contributions.

      Crikey! This Doesn't Look Good For The Housing Secretary

      By Rockets · Posted

      Which is exactly why Rayner had to go - don't be the sleaze attack dog and then not keep your own house in order - the really shocking fact is she didn't go the moment this came to light because she knew what advice, and the advice to seek proper tax expertise that was given to her in writing by the very people she was trying to throw under the bus - she clearly thought she might be able to spin her way out of it. When you look at the facts, the advice she was given and when and her behaviour in the last few days it has been scandalous and just shows the contempt for the public intelligence some politicians have. Interesting to see a very unscientific vox pop on BBC News last night but a lot of her own constituents seem to want rid of her as well and to be honest if you have to lose your cabinet role for this breach of the rules then you should probably lose your seat too. That is the hypocrisy here and why a lot of people don't like politicians because they're all the same.

      Hi all, I’m after a stereo amp in working condition. Not necessarily anything fancy, as long as it works. Thanks

      Crikey! This Doesn't Look Good For The Housing Secretary

      You are missing my point, there are a few here who are rabidly anti Labour.  And have lost sight of the many scandals associated with their party.  I've not made excuses for Rayner, rather I am inferring that it is hypocritical to go on about one of the major parties whilst ignoring your own dirty washing.   You are not making sense.  I expect half the country likes a drink and a sizeable number likes a vape.  What is your point?

      If you read the article posted above, it is all very carefully worded. However I've found this: https://uknip.co.uk/news/uk/uk-news/peckham-rye-park-attack-man-seriously-injured-august-2025/
