About 20 years ago the Sunday Times published a map of globally warmed London, afraid most of ED and Peckham don't fare too well, but up here on the Nunhead heights, we're fine, and when we want a paddile, we can pop down to the sea which is due to be lapping at the bottom of Peckham Rye. Looked rather attractive, Nunhead as the new Brighton.

ooh you are sharp Mr Ted for all your cuddly name. Could I please mention that the Top Knot salon, Cheltenham Road, previously unchanged since cerca 1955, has added two gigantic silverised plant pots, with topiary just like you have in East Dulwich, Chelsea, and the West End.


The poshing of Nunhead (soirees at the Ivy House, Home Secretaries) is complete, there is nowhere for us to go.

    • I was so sick of being ghosted by tradespeople, but contacted Hussein on the advice of a neighbour.  I'm so glad I did. They did a great job, were communicative, started and finished exactly when they said they would and were really tidy and respectful. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and great value painter.
    • I think for the English, turtles are salt-water (sea) beasts whereas terrapins are fresh water, but I know e.g. Americans use 'turtle' for all chelonians including tortoises. 
    • They're turtle-y different.  😉 They hibernate, burying themselves under mud or at the bottom of the pond. There have been regular sightings in there (and in Dulwich Park) for years and terrapins can live for 15-20 years in the wild, 30+ years in captivity. They are however an invasive species - whether or not the RSPCA or a local wildlife charity would come out to try and trap / remove them is another matter.
    • Hmm they seem to disappear in the winter - and there are some who say that terrapins are a kind of turtle.
