Welcome to South London to one of the nicest streets in one of Londons vilest boroughs a determined middle-class oasis of skips & bay trees where Volvos sniff each others bumpers & men called Giles live with women called Samantha. This is a satellite-dish-free zone of tall houses standing shoulder to shoulder with big front doors five floors apiece. Come inside shut the door & smell the coffee: you could almost be in Kensington. This is where the actors writers & media types live where small children wearing smart uniforms & shoes in the shape of lightbulbs get ferried every day to schools that are not local. Some people are luckier than others; fortune smiles on some & gobs on the rest. Jo Metcalf (no. 95) smokes & spies on the smug Cunninghams down the street as they play their bile-inducing game of happy families. Why is the grass greener on the other side of the fence? But happiness is a fragile thing & hairline cracks in a perfect world can become craters of misery. Each story is full of comic insight & realistic observation of contemporary British life & focuses on the very different lives of a set of characters living in the same street. ...

Despite its name & the fact that the bulk of its operations were in the Principality Cambrian Railways (an amalgamation of a number of earlier lines) was based at Oswestry in Shropshire where its workshops were established. Its network of routes extending over 230 route miles stretched from Aberystwyth & Pwllheli on the Welsh coast through much of Central Wales to Shropshire where connections existed with both the London & North Western & Great Western railways. The Cambrian lost its independence in January 1922 being absorbed into the GWR 12 months before the main Grouping. Apart from the standard gauge network the Cambrian also constructed two narrow-gauge lines the Vale of Rheidol & the Welshpool & Llanfair. Over the years there has been much written about the Cambrian but now much additional information has come to light as documentation has been deposited with the National Archives & in local Record Offices material that has not been covered by other historians of the railway. This book presents a whole new history of the Cambrian Railways concentrating largely on the company's standard gauge lines & is illustrated with a fantastic array of over 275 photographs both colour & mono which bring the text to life. ...
