Uncle Albert

How much did you owe? . It was on the telly the other night. I didn’t recognise it. I was there in 1981-84. The North Peckham Estate and up towards the OKR was pretty daunting. At least I managed to avoid New Cross and Deptford, I suppose. Lots of bad areas around in those days…I used to run through Brixton and Streatham without thinking, even after the Brixton riots. People used to wave at me. Probably thought I was rock hard or insane. Or, in a t-shirt and shorts there’s nothing to mug me for.

Did you go to that infamous game at the den i think in 84?

I was living 7 miles from Peckham at the time

Lived by Queens Road Station so towards New Cross. Working as a technician in central London on £500 a month. The market was a godsend.
Lived in Tooting and Streatham too. Actually quite liked Peckham. Given me a long term like of curry goat!

You talking age

Blackbird Leys is nowhere near as bad as some of our housing estates in Swansea. In fact, as an ex Penlan pupil, I would say it's positively posh!

You can’t beat it, straight out of Tudno place, and your in The Penlan Sawsh mun !

My daughter was in Goldsmiths uni and lived in a shared house in New Cross. It aged me 10 years till she moved digs the following year.

I lived behind the Kings Head in ‘96/97. Was ok by then. Balham was the new up and coming area

 

[Ringwood]

I lived on the Wandsworth Road by Tooting Bec tube station. Regular buses to Clapham and Streatham on the route masters (sometimes paid ) hop on and off, northern line to Waterloo and trains from Balham. I don't even have a railway station now
