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)

    • Why is the name a big of a red flag? Blighty is a common name for the UK whatever people might think.
    • The only election which counts is the General Election.  There is still strong resentment for fourteen year's of Conservative rule. They squeezed the working class's way to hard, then they squeezed the middle class, but somehow the upper class never got touched, funny that.   There is also new resentment for Labour because of the utter balls up they've made of things since coming to power nine months ago. The majority of the population (or at least those with an ounce of common sense) want these clowns out of office ASAP because they see the damage they are doing to UK plc. They squeezed the pensioners, then the farmers and then business. They made and broke promise after promise, or just didn't tell the truth or say what they where going to do, otherwise known as merely lying to get elected. Inflation may be falling but the cost of things in the shops and utility bills keep on rising, the direct opposite of what they promised. They will never be trusted once they are ousted from power in about four and a half years time.   Everything they do and touch causes further harm, led by three stooges, Rayner, Reeves and balls'less Starmer, who couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag. He still thinks he's a solicitor at the DPP. Rather than spending week upon week getting involved in international politics he needs to be sorting out the UK's issues, sadly he's not up to the job and nor are his Cabinet.  Society needs a mix of people with different skills to prosper, not more and more graduates who can't get jobs in what they studied in.   Reform is the current anti establishment party, which will hopefully wither away back to where it came from.  The Liberals and Greens, well what can you say apart from using them as another alternative vote of dissatisfaction, but neither will come to power.  The country seriously needs stability and a Government that stands up for and represents it's people, not what MP's want but what the constituencies want and need.  Government needs to become far more open and transparent, it needs to be seen to be doing its job, doing what MP's are elected to do,  working for the people in the constituencies, getting back to basic principles and rebuilding the trust which has been lost by successive party's immaterial of them being, red, blue, light blue, yellow, green or some other colour.     
    • That’s very insulting! You are basically calling 17 million people that voted to leave the EU ‘thick’.        Brexit happened Sue.  Boring graphs!  Calling Nigel Farage a plastic patriot is also very insulting seeing as he and the Reform Party have had a landslide victory all over England.
    • These charity collectors are often classed as chuggers.  It can be scandalous that the charity/admin may keep a huge percentage of your donations and a tiny percentage is  actually given to the charity.   I can not speak for individual collectors - but it common practice.
