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.

Hanay


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)

    • I wonder where he could be deported to, Hungary the obvious candidate in Europe, perhaps he would get on well with Modi?   Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch and Reform UK leader Nigel Farage both said Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood should look at whether Abd El Fattah's citizenship could be revoked to enable his swift removal from the UK. Farage said in a letter to Mahmood: "It should go without saying that anyone who possesses racist and anti-British views such as those of [Mr Abd El Fattah] should not be allowed into the UK." So just racists views are ok Nige?
    • Always preferred Grace and Favour to the BMC, commented in the past on this and sadly long since gone   
    • If it's the same one I'm thinking of, it was a little further down the road towards LL, probably where the Fresh Flower Company is today. I'd forgotten all about it, with good reason. I think it disappeared before Blue Mountain opened and became a pizza place? I once bought a carton of milk from the deli and when I opened it, it was solid. I did get my money back though.
    • But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
