Compared to 18 years ago when I moved here as a whippersnapper this place SE22 ROCKS !!

Maybe I've grown into it but it's also changed massively, both in terms of the demographic and what's on.


Shame Sainsbury's closed down all the original butchers, bakers, grocers, fishshops but with local interest there are now replacements for them which probably offer more choice than the originals (I do miss old 'Dave the Butcher' on LL though !).


The one thing I was bothered about until a couple of years ago was that I always had to go elsewhere for my live music, now it's here most weekends - top hole !


Some folks started a folk club, some folks run a repertory cinema, there's open-mic nights - many locals endeavour to create things they desire but which aren't here yet so yeah I dig the place and DIG the people.

Mat if you can't find what you want here in SE22 and you are able to articulate what it is you want that would render the manor less 'boring', perhaps you can rustle up some interest locally and create the things you want to happen ?

    • Wow, well served with local supermarkets then…  Agree with ATM.. good c position to been mugged or cloned card - prob why not been considered before. Wasn’t there one outside post office and still  is2where people were abit nervous of using? Hope I am wrong but won’t see me rushing to use it…sure lots of folk will benefit thou. Not a great fan or user of Iceland but when it closed years ago people complained..  Guess they only b look at bigger sites - can’t recall an express one but a pity to those who frequent the store. Strange that Tesco can use it as local but Iceland can’t - guess it is  power of large supermarkets. Personally would have  loved an Aldi or Lidl but  clearly site to small. Only grocery stores left to come are Waitrose, Aldi, Lidl… 
    • I'm paying £31 pcm for full fibre 300, whatever that is. I'm not sure it's a particularly good deal now, but I did a comparison at the time I went onto it, and it was then. I don't have a landline any more, and my mobile is with iD, who piggyback off 3. I don't usually have any problems,  except once a few years back when the whole 3  network (?) went  down for quite a long time.
    • I have Plusnet too.   I recently (August) had some problems with WiFi connection on different days but and the turning off and turning on didn’t work.  The WiFi didn’t work for quite a few hours - overnight in one case but eventually rectified itself.   Would be interested to know how much other people pay for Plusnet. I also have a landline with them as the mobile signal is bad inside house.  That is with EE and I want to change from them to another provider.
    • That's terrible 🤬 Was it the same company both times?
