76 .. still, not bad though, eh?



More than all my male forebears. I'd have been happy with that if you'd have asked me 20 years ago.

OK I now live in East East Dulwich.

When the cartogrophers were drawing the official line between USA and Canada they came to a little farmhouse and asked the guy which side of the line he'd like them to place him on. He said Stick me on the USA side, I'm sick of these cold Canadian winters.

Agreed. This looked not quite right from the start.

The article said 71 for males and 76 for females.

Nunhead resident Mary Chippy told us: "I much prefer the lower life expectancy here in Nunhead to that of East Dulwich. Here, I can die in a three bed house with a garden for the same price as a pokey flat just across the park. Albeit slightly sooner."
There's a map in the Peckham and Nunhead Area Action Plan (PNAAP) showing the 'most deprived' areas of Southwark. (It's on the www.southwark.gov.uk site) It looks as if the 'most deprived' area in Nunhead is the Cossall Estate. I don't think many people would consider this to be in Nunhead! (Though it is in Nunhead local government ward).

    • Oh give it a break.  We have an MP who makes racist comments, yet our media (and what seems like this Forum) that generally hate Labour (and loved Johnson) are just out looking for the dirt. It's a move on, nothing to see here.  Particularly if she used a letting agency.
    • Hi all, I highly recommend Rob Mills Gas Safe boiler engineer, helpful and knowledgeable. contact number 07952584171    
    • I don't think a single all-inclusive URL is easily doable.  When you enter a search the system presents the result without any of one's search parameters added to the URL.  So I suggest you go to https://planning.southwark.gov.uk/online-applications/search.do?action=advanced where you just need to enter the address -- use SE22 8EW -- and the  Date Received start date.  I used 1/1/2025.  The three Tesco applications, all minor things, were all made in May.  The Simple search that I'd done previously had no time limit, and didn't include anything else that might have been from Tesco in the last two years. Incidentally, when I searched on the address 29-35 Lordship Lane it did not pick up the Tesco applications, which were held as 29 - 35 Lordship Lane Grrr!
