Re the Taylor and Lawrence murders
Sorry, Peckham and Eltham may have South East London postcodes, but they are hardly next door to Lewisham (assuming you mean Lewisham the actual place, which I assume you do, rather than the borough, which is huge and includes decent places like Blackheath).

Plenty of examples in Lewisham itself to choose from - people seem to get killed in Tesco car park on a pretty regular basis.

Oh, and Bromley may have a Kent postcode, but that's where the Kent connection ends - it's in Greater London, people there got to vote for Boris or Ken as Mayor of London last time round, is policed by the Met, and it's a London Borough.

Sorry if that all sounds pedantic, but I've lived in four separate parts of SE London - Thamesmead, Orpington, Crayford (Dartford postcode but inside the London Borough of Bexley) and Greenwich - and went to school in a fifth (Dulwich) and they are all very different places.

erm
so I do know what I'm talking about. I am talking about the borough. I'm sure that at least one other person on this forum has neglected to mention such wondrousness as Blackheath being associated/ near them. More importantly I'm talking about where I lived which was pretty much slap bang in the middle of Eltham and Lewisham the highstreet. Damiola Taylor is often associated with where I live - God knows why. I am young though so I was actually about when this all happened. Also I do actually live in the place that I'm talking about rather than having lived in 5 different parts. I know I've jumped to the defensicve but this is about as annoying as being told that I dont know how to spell my own name.

No offence meant
Assumed that since you compared Lewisham to Brixton, you meant the place rather than the borough (also difficult to envisage an entire borough smelling of dried chicken).

Likewise your comment about "most people who dont live in Lewisham are scared to come here" suggested Lewisham itself, rather than the borough - it's not like you'd say to someone "let's go to Wooolwich" when you mean Greenwich, or "Lambeth" when you mean Brixton is it? Anyway sorry about getting the wrong idea there.

And yeah, I might have lived/gone to school in five different parts of SE London but that's over a period of 33 years from ages 7 to 40 (university apart) which I reckon gives me a pretty good idea of how that corner of London works.
