Is that really true - seems unlikely!!


You're not a Classics teacher, I take it UG?

Don't know when this map was done, but apparently I live on the turf of the Penge Block Gang. However, a Bromley report late 2012 said they were no longer an operational street gang, and a google search shows that they were only really known because one of their members was killed by another gang.


I think basically they were a bit of a crap gang.

I live near Penge East and just googled P-Block which is my nearest gang....first thing that comes up is http://study.com/academy/lesson/p-block-elements-on-the-periodic-table-properties-lesson-quiz.html which is encouraging...not all gangs are guns and drugs, seems this lot are more of a study group

    • I’m not an expert either but surely having that high of affordable housing would seem like a terrible investment. My guess is that they will pay southwark a fine then make the rest of it student housing too
    • For some strange reason, hubby likes to spend 'big' on family cards birthday and Christmas. I think it may have stemmed from his mother- she equated money with status and was a bit of a snob!  She was also quite eccentric - we asked for a suitcase one year and got a set of 4. One year she gave hubby the equivalent of a hearing aid - it was a device to hear bird song. Nobody we know send expensive cards. We have a twice yearly set of cards from the Foot and Mouth Painting Artists and have done for the last 30 plus years. I think they are around £12 for set of 10  - cannot remember what we paid this winter but they are fantastic value and beautiful paintings.  One of the best places around to buy cards is the Fair Trade Centre at Christ Church Barry Road. Fantastic selection with a starting price of £1.30.
    • I had to renew my licence - took photocopy of my current licence and also my renewal application and posted everything off. Within 10 days received my new licence. My old licence was due to run out in January so I submitted the renewal early December. 
    • I cannot remember who ran/organised the original ED LETS. They had meetings at the ED Community Centre every so often. I think there were about 20 - 25 people involved.
