I can only urge others to send them a list of the reasons why Forest Hill is such a terrible place to live; the massive increase in independent coffee shops filled with well behaved children munching on their ciabatta, gangs of middle-aged women frequently hanging round the station planting flowers, and it is often safe to walk down the street, even at night. This really isn't what people moving to South London should have to put up with.
Dear Michael,
Thank you for warning me about this disgusting, revolting, sickening behaviour that you are witnessing in The Hill.
I’m considering writing to The Guardian to warn them that I actually saw a young personage pick up some rubbish on Devonshire Road just off the South Circular. This feckless young man had a Hi-Viz jacket on. They might have been employed by the local council. That doesn’t matter. What really got my goat was that this young man actually smiled and said “Good Morning” to me.
I did not know which way to look.
They certainly got a withering glance from me as I hurried on. My deep hope is that this young man will know not to ever, ever do that again.
If it does happen again, then I’ll take a photograph of him and send it to the Love Lewisham website.
And don’t get me started on people holding doors open for each other. I’ve seen this in The Capitol. A Wetherspoon pub. Can you believe it? It’s like some disease that people have being nice to each other in Forest Hill.
As Captain Jean-Luc Picard once said, The line must be drawn here! This far, no further!
Is this the address to send my correspondence?

Yours Sincerely,
Outraged of Forest Hill
