Hello from the other side of Denmark Hill.


I was recently asked if I would make postcards of the attached, which was originally a Christmas Card from 2019.


Slightly sweary, but clearly hitting a chord with many for some reason.


I'm also looking for similar graffiti around Dulwich and Herne Hill or anywhere in south London really so if anyone knows anywhere that may be suitable, please get in touch either by leaving a message or email me at [email protected].


By the way I am now selling these online at ?5/pack of 10.

If anyone would like some you can order them from the link above, where you can also see a better picture of the cards.


The first print run has almost sold out but I have more on order.



Thanks all.


Tom.

I loved the old school political graffiti, much sadly lost. Whatever happened to Slade on a wall by the Oval, supplemented by whatever happened to Terry Waite. The wall was demolished when they built a new stand at the ground. And not far away in Loughborough Junction. "Let's flip Thatcher in 1989". Got pressure washed off about ten years later. Should have been listed. Sadly no images on line. Here's some others (PS Clapton is not God, he's (allegedly) a racist). https://londonist.com/2015/01/10-london-graffiti-slogans-from-the-last-50-years


A nearby fave was by Horniman Gardens where someone had graffiti'd I'd like to X@!** your mother. The profanity had been amended to 'help your mother'. Nice one.

I remember being fascinated by the 'George Davis is Innocent' graffiti across London when I first learned to read in the 1970s. Back to present times, and there's a surreal bit of graffiti where someone has added 'to my b***s' to a 'No entry' sign on Acre Lane in Brixton which my children find hilarious.

    • Many years ago, I actually cooked a meal for all who wanted to come ….. In this day and age, with social media being in our faces..yes, I don’t live in ED, but visit,  why doesn’t Christian spirit happen? I would think, few people even know their neighbours…. Life, busy etc. We all live in one world..human kindness is all around..In a city, people are scared to make human contact, especially when who knows what might happen. Can clearly remember, coming back in summer with friends,  side door had been jimmied.. nothing was taken from inside.. When I lived in ED and when I visit, it is Me who starts a conversation.. never know where that might lead, or in deed where it might take one.. Notice my post, in general did not have response I was hoping for .. that is fine.. So, Will start again, and ask personally.how can I thank or make a donation to keep forum going.. We should be proud, to have a forum like this..      
    • Not very quiet 🤣
    • Rachel Reeves making a quiet visit to check out her house in Dulwich.    
    • Apparently there was a motorcade on Lordship lane about 40 mins ago. Did anyone see it? Two blacked out 4X4, with police convoy. I'm intrigued...
