El Pibe Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Someone posted this on facebook.http://www.urban75.org/blog/the-a-z-of-gentrification-sure-fire-signs-that-your-neighbourhood-is-upwardly-mobile/Far from "sharp edge of" this was already tired cliches on the forum in 2006, they were just plain old cliches in Brixton in 1996. In fact some of these were tired in 1986!!Apart from some of them which are just common or garden old memes, and a few which are just plain old world moving on.Jay Rayner is fair enough though ;) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/34378-they-have-arrived/#findComment-662850 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ted Max Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Marina O'Loughlin has been tweeting today about her Peckham "safari", and mentioned a very well known (Persepolis) shop as one of her first Peckham "discoveries".This sort of language annoys me. NB Although she's been in the Refreshment Rooms and Begging Bowl, she makes sure to mention that she likes Rye Lane too.

woodrot Posted July 26, 2013 Author Share Posted July 26, 2013 I have no idea who that woman is, but I guess she writes for some kind of living.did she use "vibrant" "edgy" and " mashup" ? Peckhams ethic meat shops are well mexico - unless you have to actually eat the stuff day in day out because you have no choice another poverty tourist name etched my black book of enemies of the state once the revolution comes.oh yes. the list is growing.
