Life expectancy in East Dulwich and Nunhead (Lounged)

[SeanMacGabhann]

I bought a sausage-roll in Greggs in Lewisham last year. Louisa would have been proud of me.

It was easily the worst thing I have ever eaten

Now you're talking, borg. I'll see you in the queue.

Maybe because the 2 kids under the age of 10 that died on nunhead lane in road accidents in the last 10 years have pulled the figures down dramatically. Fuck your sausage roll jokes, how about you focus on the fact that your local council Executive have dicked around for 10 years diverting funding to everything on the other side of the rye to secure your votes. Good on them.

[Jeremy]

Where's your evidence that funds have been diverted from Nunhead into East Dulwich?

[Mikecg]

Since ive been posting on here, I think mine has gone down ever so slightly.

[Michael Palaeologus]

Most of Nunhead is a cemetary. Surely to GOD that tells you something about the place...

[Mikecg]

Yeah! it's full of stiffs....

Ooh, rhetoric. Go on, what?

That it immediately makes it more interesting than the majority of ED?

Most of Nunhead is a cemetery that has been used as a contaminated waste dump for the past umpteen years.

A word of well meant advice to people who buy veg from Honor Oak Allotments holders: In the late 90s the allotment society removed a lot of top soil from one of the affected areas for use on the allotments. I have the correspondence advising the relevant LBS officer that this was happening, plus his reply to them telling them not to do it. Not a definition of healthy veggies.

[AllforNun]

Evidence...? use your eyes...it's fairly simple to do

[Jeremy]

Not good enough, sorry. Wild speculation, at best.

You can't blame the government for everything.

Perfect manly Mr Vinceayre,

I refute your claims that I do not know much about your shop. I'll have you know that I dispense my housekeeper to your establishment on a regular basis, ignoring any concerns for her safety - it is practically in Peckham you know (OHMYGOD!). Indeed, if it were not for your nonchelant attitude towards the health and indeed the marriages of the local population, I would not currently be enslaved to my damn Power Plate.

I am completely addicted to your confectionary (swoon).

Shame on you young man, I am a married lady of almost forty years with a nubile young au pair around the house to compete for my husbands attentions. Have you no idea of the lengths I must go to in order to work off these excessive calories?

I have a young family to think of (sob)...

[vinceayre]

Dulwichmum,

I think that's enough refuting for now.

It goes to show the inherent goodness of my confectionery when you have been married for nearly forty years and are still able to have a young family!!!!

Vince

[SimonM]

Go get her Vince!!!

[dulwichmum]

Mr Vinceayre,

I am almost forty years old (shhh) and I assure you that I shall look substantially older when I am married forty years, despite the ready availability of various injectible substances at a beauty emporium not a twenty minute stroll from your own fine establishment.

If you are unkind to me, I shall have Albena (my enormous Bulgarian housekeeper) give you a thick ear, but I shall never stop indulging in your fine confectionery (sigh)!

[Mikecg]

Watch out Vince, even if you try and be friendly she can sting.

DM are you a Scorpio?.

[bigbadwolf]

I'm a Scorpio and yes we do sting.

[Mikecg]

I didn't ask you BBW, it's obvious to me that you are a scorpio.

[dulwichmum]

Lovely Mikecg,

but you know I am a scorpio, it is on my Facebook page sweetie.

[Mikecg]

I swear to you I never knew that DM, but your personality is classic Scorpio, how did I know, my wife is one, and the traits are inherent in your posts.

[dulwichmum]

OHMYGOD!

Do you know that there are branches of Greggs in Brussels? Shamefully, it's true.

+Handbrake turn+

On topic, I have no idea why people live shorter lives in Nunhead.

[macroban]

I was hoping that one of the EDF medical professionals might provide an insight.

[jollybaby]

Multiple factors contribute to life expectancy but on the whole it is pretty solid reflection of the socio-economic status of the population. People in lower socio-economic groups tend to die earlier - whether it is due to smoking, alcohol, diet (including sausage roll intake), obesity, access to/ use of healthcare or a combination of the above so you would expect Dulwich to have a higher life expectancy than some of the surrounding areas.

[Moos]

Yes but jollybaby I like sausage rolls and live in Peckham but am not yet dead, so everything you said isn't true*.

*It's a well known fact that anecdotal evidence is proof on the EDF**.

**Even when it doesn't make any sense.
