Gee thanks BBC
Aug. 9th, 2011 07:55 amMy parents have just rung up somewhat anxiously, having heard on the BBC that there have been massive riots in Clapham.
Had to explain to them that no, that was Battersea - 30 minutes brisk walk away. The might of the BBC apparently unable to understand that Clapham Junction =/= Clapham High Street. Unsurprisingly our local paper (The Guardian) is reporting correctly.
Brixton quietish last night, though I decided it was best not to leave the milk bottles out for the milkman just in case, and he decided understandably not to do his rounds.
