De Beauvoir Cycle Gang Strikes Again

Just have to hope no copycat muggers take their place.
And a long term solution would be nice too...

Before everyone jumps in I should point out that RPM has a rich Caribbean heritage.

what's RPM

'Revolutions Per Minute'

what's RPM

Russian Prime Minister

Got in contact with one of my ex-girlfriends today to ask about the cat.

She mentioned that she is buying a 3 bed flat in Dalston for £650,000.

Honest to god- can you spend that much to (on purpose!) live in Hackney now?

You can guess the cost of a house by the number of fancy dress parties in the locale.

Dalston is nice.

kindof

in parts

That and the number of non-perscription glasses

Are you referring to adidas trackies as fancy dress here?

what's RPM got to do with the Caribean.I grew up in dalston ,it's has the good ,the bad and ugly ,like any inner london area it has a soul and character .What pisses me off is the overspill for hoxton ,all these hipster pussyholes thinking they're cool ,walking round like they own the place

People like this don't think about families.
It's all nice if you're young and free.
Once you've got kids, you don't want them to grow up in the middle of the fucking ghetto.

Where's the point of buying a house next to the estate? Your kids will end up in shitty school, not being able to cross the road, because the other side is in another post code.
You can as well go native and get a council/HA place.

She has a kid.

Is it some kind of New Labour experiment then?

Dalston is a ghetto?

According to some locals, yes.

I'd personally send them to Nairobi for a year of charity work.

She's the MD of a financial company, I would imagine the kid will be privately schooled.

Well they own it more than the ones who are merely renting it.

They better make sure the have their food delivered from Waitrose to their doorstep.
Just in case the corner shop is in a different post code.

You live in Leyton, don't you EEI?

I'm not allowed in Leyton. Different post code, innit.
Stuck between Thatched House and Cathall.

And I'm a hipster, so I'm Only One Man Dem.

LAY-oh-TON to you.

I know Hackney well. I used run tings over there. I know more crackheads than art students. Fact. Bit sad, though.
