East Peckham. Got to be a good reason to be called that. I lived on its outskirts for three years and never found out. Vicar didn’t know. Local estate agent didn’t know. Do you know?

Common happening when a white elephant in its decrepitude suddenly catches fire, like a lot of bankrupt warehouses and shop, mysterious start of a destructive fire. The flats are similar in concept without the decorative bits.

Only yesterday (6/5/24) I noticed the river Nailbourne was flowing. This is a river/stream that only flows in very wet weather from a spring in Petham through to the Great Stour between Chilham and Chartham in Kent. I thought Ham was a shortened version of Hamlet.

I am a decendant of smugglers and the fact that they were robin hood like is genuinely true. They all came from poor families struggling to make a living so when a large source of income was found of course they would share it with local villagers. Although i am not denying that there was a huge amount of violence to keep ontop of this monopoly.

Way back when I was at school in the 70s we were told that Gravesend meant 'End of the Grove' as there was a large Roman vineyard that extended to Gravesend (Roman hot period), Many street names in Gravesend have the word Grove in it. We were also told that Sevenoaks was a large Coaching house en route from Royal Tunbridge Wells to London that had 7 oak vats to choose your ale from as opposed to just 1 that was common in other coaching houses.

Albert is surname from the king of Kent, Albert also has old spelling variations of Elthelbert and I think Elthered or both related to monarchs of Kent. A really interesting maybe if terrain topic is Saint Francis translated to Latin, will try not make things to long, do you have a Instagram I have a old globe map I could send you if you like maps

I was a toddler in WWII, living in 49 Victoria Road, Deal, all through the air raids. Occasionally, when we could not get to the shelter in time, we crawled into the cupboard under the stairs. That was always the strongest part of a house, we were told, the last thing left standing if the house came down. Once while huddling under the stairs, two adults, myself and my baby brother, we heard THE SEA, a sound of waves hitting the shore. The adults speculated that we were sitting over a tunnel, perhaps even a smugglers' tunnel? That row of cottages goes back 400 years or so?
