The Dulwich Raider Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Hi all, I wrote a piece about Clapham, where I lived on and off.It's sweary, of course (Half-life is there)http://deserter.co.uk/2015/07/clapham-omnibus/If anyone has any photos of Clapham in the 80s or 90s I'd be very keen to see them and maybe use them in the piece.TDR Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/67657-clapham-for-better-and-for-worse/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louisa Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Brilliant piece. Couldn't stop grinning throughout. The recollections from the Clapham of the 80's and 90's ring remarkably similar to those of Peckham today (or maybe five years ago).Louisa.
