Hello Hanay008, you didn't put a question mark at the end of your thread title, so I read it with a slightly rising intonation.

I even mentally suffixed it with the word 'Boy'.

I know you really intended it as a question, but then did you?

Brian Eno once went to the trouble of having a lot of cards printed and I've just remembered they were called Oblique Strategies.

Anyway one of them said 'Honour thy mistake as a hidden intention'. You would appear to be fimiliar with work of the randy polymath, who if he'd never done anything else had a hand in creating Virginia Plain when he was in Roxy Music.

Garagey electronic pop at its finest.


But to get back on topic, you're in a good part of town, but feel freee to visit Peckham during daylight hours.


Was going to edit the extra 'e' from the word 'free', but decided in the spirit of Brian Eno's working methods to let it be.

I totally feel safe here, I think like anywhere in London you have to have your wits about you but I have never felt saver living anywhere else..


I def would avoid peckham high street on your own past midnight but other than that its a very colourful and vibrant place.. I feel safe during the day there for sure..


Only thing I really worry about it ED is break ins whilst I am at work but 1 year on and (touch wood) it hasnt happened..

Have lived in ED for most pf my life and feel very safe. When I had dogs,would take them for a walk around 1 am for at least 30 mins. Most roads feel very safe but I would be wary about walking near Peckam Rye very late at night, do not know why - it is probably just me.

Apart from witnessing Guys charging down Peckham High Street with Baseball Bats 2/3 years ago and seeing something (fairly) similar in Clayton Road and seeing 2 totally seperate incidents in Melon Road (r.i.p) near The Junction of Rye Lane/High Street involving mobs with bricks targeting the Police its been pretty uneventful.


Anyway "crime happens everywhere"--I heard , for example, that 2 Rabbits were stolen, recently, in The Outer London Suburb where I live so that prooves it, innit..B)

      Tree Killer – Seeking Advice on Dealing with Toxic Neighbours

      He did mention it's share of freehold, I’d be very cautious with that. It can turn into a nightmare if relationships with neighbours break down. My brother had a share of freehold in a flat in West Hampstead, and when he needed to sell, the neighbour refused to sign the transfer of the freehold. What followed was over two years of legal battles, spiralling costs and constant stress. He lost several potential buyers, and the whole sale fell through just as he got a job offer in another city. It was a complete disaster. The neighbour was stubborn and uncooperative, doing everything they could to delay the process. It ended in legal deadlock, and there was very little anyone could do without their cooperation. At that point, the TA6 form becomes the least of your worries; it’s the TR1 form that matters. Without the other freeholder’s signature on that, you’re stuck. After seeing what my brother went through, I’d never touch a share of freehold again. When things go wrong, they can go really wrong. If you have a share of freehold, you need a respectful and reasonable relationship with the others involved; otherwise, it can be costly, stressful and exhausting. Sounds like these neighbours can’t be reasoned with. There’s really no coming back from something like this unless they genuinely apologise and replace the trees and plants they ruined. One small consolation is that people who behave like this are usually miserable behind closed doors. If they were truly happy, they’d just get on with their lives instead of trying to make other people’s lives difficult. And the irony is, they’re being incredibly short-sighted. This kind of behaviour almost always backfires.

      I had some time with him recently at the local neighbourhood forum and actually was pretty impressed by him, I think he's come a long way.

      I cook at home - almost 95% of what we eat at home is cooked from scratch.  But eating out is more than just having dinner, it is socialising and doing something different. Also,sometimes it is nice to pay someone else to cook and clear up.
