So Macroban, are you going to tell us where the photos are from? I would be really interested to see if there are any photos of our street, Hindmans Rd. Our house and the one it is attached to date from around 1855, a doctors surgery and residence and the coach house. Servants quarters were added on the other side in 1900. 1855 is quite early for around here.

EDmummuy,


Nothing special here. I did some scans a couple of years ago, and in an idle moment I decided to share a few of the more interesting ones.


Isn't there a postcard of Hindmans Road with a horse-drawn milk-cart in view? I'm pretty sure I've seen that some time in the past.

Here's a picture of Ady's Road: "a good example of the second phase of Peckham's suburban development, ... designed for members of the lower-middle class and skilled artisans."

Note the early horse-drawn Bugaboo.

I bought a copy of the Cyrstal Palace Road photograph from the street market in Bromley earlier this year. Can't remember the name of the seller but they had lots of old photos of various places in and around London. I'll try and find out who I got it from.

    • Hello all,  If your child goes to this gym club: since the new payment system, have you received clear information about the cost per session, the cost per term and when sessions will be omitted eg for school opened days? (I have asked the club, more than once, no full response so far) This term started in late August, before school had gone back (did many attend that session?). Next term there is no break for half term, so there are 12 sessions to be paid. Does that seem to be more sessions than there used to be?    I am sure they are doing their best, but the info from the new auto pay system isn’t detailed enough, and the auto pay just takes an unspecified amount. I wondered if it’s just me (wanting more detail), or if there are others too? (my child loves the gym itself!) thanks 
    • ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Excellent service! We had one of Paul Edgley’ s team come to fit some new lights in our living room. They were able to come at reasonably short notice, arrived on time, were friendly and professional, and did a great job. Everything was left clean and tidy afterwards, and the lights look fantastic. Highly recommend! Paul’s contact details are 07802 627967  
    • For Plusnet, I pay £31.99 for Full Fibre 500.  (the number is the line speed you have paid for) I have recently recontracted.  Always phone them up, and ask what deal they can do for me.  Usually get a decent reduction.  Sue, I would suggest you call them, especially if you are close to contract renewal.  Sometimes they will change deals mid-contract, as I have found in the past.
