I grew up in forest hill. Now in swanley past 15 years.
My dad lives up by the horniman primary school. Amazing views that i didnt appreciate when i lived in his house.

My 1st job was sainsburys beckenham for 6months. .32 years in banking and counting now....
Used to go to the 3 tonnes all the time on a thursday night before it became a zizzi.
I still kick myself with flats and houses i should have bought in beckenham and didnt.
I remember a new flat with garage 65k in 96...
Or letting my aunts house be sold in2003 . Overbrae. For 250k....
Ouch.

She seems pleased to see you!

That angle of the Jag makes the window gutters seem oddly pronounced.

Going through old photos at the weekend I've found several more of Alpine GTA's & A610's!

Phil often has some really odd-ball stuff going through.

I've been relying on him for the thick end of 25 years now and no, the place hasn't changed a bit except when his original office finally got full of "things" so he built another... smile

Came out of work yesterday, (lorry driver) sun was shining so had roof down. As I was leaving the dock a stunning red with white roof and stripes 488 pulled out in front of me smile

We then had a nice drive for 5 or 6 miles, the Ferrari sounded epic.

Not the greatest photo but this saw this in Westgate yesterday, looked amazing!

There was a DBS parked in the same spot a couple of weeks ago, think they belong to a guy who's got an office over the shops there.
I also saw DB4 Zagato parked there, must have been two of three years ago, and thinking it must have been a replica, now I'm not so sure!
Are you local Andrew?
