I bet

knell and

chrysaphi are glad they're not still living in Deptford, though I'm not sure how close to Canal Approach they used to live.

That article does have an excellent and appropriate typo as well - it mentions "Charring Cross".

Oh dearie me. How apposite.

Wow. Really quite close actually. See that green patch called "Deptford Park"?

I wonder if

knell's brother (who still lives there) has anything interesting to report.

Looks about 400 metres. Ah, yes, that is close.

I'd suggest a barbecue, but there may well be solvents involved in the blaze.
