Peckham, its Jewel
We've got the fucking lot down here, Lorrrrrrrdship Laaaaaane, aaargh, Jim Lad, calls itself Easterly Dull Which, but really its Peck Ham me boyo - its obviuops its absolutely packed with naff bars converted from decent pubs and as we all know the Alleyn family would only allow one pub in the village, so, it MUST be Peckam!!!
Its the Village on the Peck, which unlike the Effra isn't quite totally covered over - though we do have the largest covered resevoir in Europe so there!!!!!!Eat yer fucking heart out Croydon (an utter bumwipe of a place) - no, you can still see, and on a hot day, smell the trickle that is the River (What? You cannot be serious!! That, a river?) Peck in Peck Ham Rye Park. The Rye incidentally where William Blake frist started getting his weirdo visions of God, tho I have lookled lately and it seems the locals have long since picked out all the shrooms........
You can by semi toxic Turkey Gizzards and Cow Foot in the charnel houses on Rye Lane, eat a very nice lump of dead cow for lunch at the OLD NUNS Head - one of the oldest licences in London, have a lovely view of St Pauls from the cemetary in Nunhead
Aye, home o the Gods like
PS 10 years ago twas easier to get shot here than it was in Brixton, but since the Kings closed and Cyclotron or whatever that badboy club at the start of the Rye was called, since they moved the bus atop and the crack dealers from outside Crackerjack -must have been the name that attracted them - its all peace and bloody light
I mean, we've even got this:

New Addington and the Roundshaw estate which is fucking grim and houses some of the nastiest fuckers I've ever had the pleasure of meeting.
