Oh thank you, Great fun....I got 8 out of 10 three times....which is good as I haven't lived in London for years! Made me feel a bit nostalgic actually.

8, which is not bad for someone who hasn't lived there in 13 years and wasn't paying much attention when he did.

Has someone moved Buckingham Palace? I don't remember it being all that close to the correct answer.

4/10 - Asda delivery driver - could do better. Surrey girl though, and occasional visitor so I don't feel too bad. ;)

Apparently I have The Knowledge. For me, the knowledge is acquired by scooting around until I can find a street sign and the liberal use of Google maps.

Milkman!

Having lived there 20+ years, hadn't visited most of those places. I'm a north London girl, and not really an expert on locations of bog standard housing.

Catford - well, never been there but there was a bit of a giveaway.

:D

Another Postman! The one's I got wrong I hadn't even heard the name of - no idea where Child's Hill is!

Having only visited London and not lived there delivery driver I feel is acceptable :)

I don't understand how being south of the river can be near the Isle of Dogs. It is almost a separate country.
