Crystal Palace / Upper Norwood reviewed

[The Dulwich Raider]

Hi,

I wrote a new piece for Deserter about Crystal Palace

http://deserter.co.uk/2014/11/crystal-palace/

As ever, I'd love to hear people's views on what I liked (and missed!)

Another excellent piece. One mistake. The Crystal Palace burnt down in 1936 not 1934. My dad, then aged ten and who lived in Upper Norwood at the time watched it burn down.

Yup - another cracking read

I do like the White Hart as well, as a pub - but it does suffer from the usual M&B failings (bar staff can be scarce and the food is expensive and not good)

I saw the Temptations in the White Hart once.

Really. The Temptations were having a drink.

In the White Hart

Oops - well-spotted Jah Lush - now corrected.

Bet that was something to behold for a ten-year-old - better than firework night!

Damn, if only the Temptations had done Backstabbers

I was going to tell you why they were there

Hi TDR,

I don't know enough about CP to comment on the content, but I really enjoyed reading this. Thanks.
