I was born in Lewisham and the old dear still lives there, can't disagree with you but I can't believe the house prices. She has a three bed semi and the one opposite sold for £725k last month :shock: My sister who lives in Hartley Kent has a beautiful detached 5 bedroom house and can't sell it for £800k , madness !!

But in particular Greenwich.

There are lots if interesting places to visit though, such as Eltham Palace (if you like art deco, it is a stunning house).

The Horniman Museum was favourite of my childhood (although the spectacular Chinese torture chair is no longer on display ffor resins of political correctness, and the live crocodile has gone too. But the shrunken heads etc are still there I think.

I also used to like the giant dinosaurs in Crystal Palace Park.

I was there for a gin launch a year or so ago. Had a snake wrapped round me, plus there were tarantulas, scorpions etc - great stuff!

Lived just down the road from the Horniman Museum on Lordship Lane up until March. It is indeed a great spot.

I used to live in Beckenham and can fully agree with your comment, I went into the centre of Leisham once in the whole time I lived there. Awful place.

To be fair to the sculptor, I think he did them in the mid-nineteenth century, based on the relatively limited scientific knowledge of the day.

Oh yeah, there was a short lived campaign to get them replaced with accurate ones, I'd be dead against that - they are a wonderful look back at what people thought in the 19th century.

It's worth a day out to visit there and the Horniman museum and Gardens
