following on from my last topic about peckham rye history 70s and 80s

does anyone have and memories of the ta hall during this time?

once a year they booked a coach and we all went on our annual daoy out to margate or hastings.

does anyone remember the childrens band called the mimettes??

was darts nights tues and pool night thurs?

does anyone remember the disco on a sat night ran by jane and donna early 80s?

or the youth club were we painted murals on the small back room walls?

the sports day they held every summer, were we did sack races egg and spoon races etc

yes i remember the mimettes, i was in it we use to travel around pubs and social clubs raising money for charity, we done alot of funraising for kings college hospital, such fun times! My cousin has got video footage of it somewhere, my grandad and dad used the club every friday night to play cards and did so up untill around 12 years ago when they moved out of the area. Not much goes on there these days which is quite a shame. The day trips still occur once a year but not much of a turnout.

omg never thought id find another mimette what is your name and what songs did you do? would love some video if you can send it i have photos i can share.

what was your grandad and dads name? have a feeling i will know them if we were both in the mimettes

    • I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.  
    • In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.
    • There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can. 
    • Like I thought… prob like that for most of the day.. especially after people had walked their dogs, with friends, relatives  kids…
