I live in SURREY and it would take me 15 mins to drive to frans house in SURREY. Purley has not been in Surrey since 1965. South Londoner's just wish they lived in Surrey. Read below: Purley is a town in South London . It is located south of Croydon, and is situated 11.7 miles (18.8 km) south of Charing Cross. It has a population of about 14,000. In 1915 Purley and the neighbouring town of Coulsdon formed the Coulsdon and Purley Urban District which in 1965, under the London Government Act 1963, was abolished and its area transferred to Greater London and used to form part of the London Borough of Croydon. There's no argument! Does that mean that Croydon is not Surrey? EDIT: To answer my own question, Croydon is indeed London Borough of Croydon, and includes Purley and Coulsdon (where I lived for a few years before moving to Caterham, which is NOT in Croydon LB). I never thought much about until now. One learns something new every day.

If Croydon is Sarf London, why does it not have an 'SE' postcode - such as SE26 or SE27?

The CR postcode area is a group of nine postcode districts in England which are sub divisions of ten post towns in Southern Greater London and North East Surrey. The main sorting office is in Croydon and the area served includes most of the London Borough of Croydon. There you go!

Series kicks off again soon, but none of the contestants have been officially named. Of those rumoured, Francis is not among them.
That said, a winter Quo tour has yet to be announced, so maybe <I>I'm a Celeb</I> organisers are going to surprise us.

So I've got to do it this way ^^

No winter tour for 2019. Does that leave the door open for spell in the jungle for Our Hero?

All of our airlines will have gone bust because of Brexit It's not just the airlines you need to worry about, it's the railways! Hence the Croydon Area Remodelling Scheme, otherwise known as CARS, which I have had personal involvement in consultation and engagement events. I think it is primarily aimed at getting Croydon residents better service to the coastal towns such as Brighton in order that they can find some benefit from the fresh air they rightly crave and have some entitlement to, if only on a part time basis.

He did an interview with Andy Snowden recently were he completely shot down the idea of him doing it...
He said "if they give me a million pounds... can I take my own pillow, my supplements, probably some bed linen, my own toilet and I've decided that I'm not going to eat bugs... And if it means my team aren't going to eat unless I eat testicles, they're going without food. So all those provide those and you know full well he's not doing it."

The only thing worth watching on there are the snakes, although I can't for the life of me understand how anybody can be scared of the cute things ?? I'd grab them and ask whether I can keep them .
