Dear Merrick,

Lord Henry is here and has always been here.

As for crystal meth, I, like Colin Farrell, gave up all that palaver a long time ago.

I am sending this from a K-hole.

Any chance that Kennedy’s closures can be averted? If they went a little upmarket, keeping their best produce and introducing good cheese, hams, and other traditional English stuff, they’d have queues trailing down the road, just like at William Rose in East Dulwich. Kennedy’s were one of the few things that made South London worth living in. This is an absolute disaster.

Yes Alex, with apologies, but this resident’s point of view is stop writing the articles.….it’s changing the area too much and not always for the better-in my humble opinion. (A resident of 25 years)

Don’t bother with William Rose unless you want to queue all down the street for the kind of meat that was freely available in every butchers only 15 years ago. It’s all our fault for shopping in supermarkets. Pleanty of good meat from organic butchers online-direct at source-you can even get offal, oxtail and tripe too. Yummie! (With apologies to the vegetarians amongst us-but I am a hardened farmer’s daughter!)

Hi,
Any chance about getting back to me re the Camberwell article for the Evening Standard. Would be good to get a resident’s point of view.
Best,
Alex

hi merrick, yeah i live right near to there and saw the police picking up the pieces and taking the cars away. It looked really, really nasty. i was walking by where it happened later on and amongst various bits of car in the gutter was some medical gloves and some packaging from a resucitation kit that were COVERED in blood. They should have taken them away.

so close to xmas as well — not good.

Off topic.…

Spotted a 3–4 car pile-up at the top of Denmark Hill this lunch time whilst out running. Plod all over the place. One car had its roof sliced off… whoever was in it would have been very, very lucky to have survived. Anybody have any further info?
