Well we have the first part:
Overground, Undergound
(Readers under 30 will be totally confused)
See:www.culttelly.co.uk/lyrics/wombles.html
I know we are trying to become the new Hoxton or Clapham, but Wimbledon?? |

Dear BD
What is wrong with Wimbledon? My grandfather received a commendation for bravery in Wimbledon in 1910. Further, Wimbledon has a long record of inspiring creativity. 'Wimbledon Poisoner', 'They came from SW19' to mention but a few.
In any case, a revised version of the Womble song might make a great anthem for the new line. I think you should draw it to the attention of TfL. |

Ex Councillor - glad (and flattered) that you entered in to the spirit of the thread, no offence intended and in fact I was a member of the Crazy Gang pre Milton Keynes sell-off.
Not a fan of Nigel Williams though. Do we have any budding authors? |

"Last year the Wombles were among anarchists groups who ran riot on the first day of the G8 summit at Gleneagles."
And apparently may threaten to disrupt parliament.
Does SE23 really want to be like Wimbledon? |

How about this as an alternative?

Should we really chose as Forest Hill's mascot an animal who left the area without leaving a forwarding address? |

Perhaps it got really fed up and left. I suspect it was a bipolar bear |
