Untitled[edit]

food for thought:

Was Bleakhouse a litary reference to the house of the same name in Pilgrim's Progress (if memory serves me well) or if later perhapse the Charles Dickens's novel "Bleak House"?
Was Rodney street named after George Brydges Rodney, 1st Baron Rodney? — Preceding unsigned comment added by PBS (talk • contribs) 02:23, 3 November 2004 (UTC)[reply]
Nope it was Rodney out of 'Only Fools and Horses' — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.63.48.48 (talk) 12:40, 3 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

I know the Charles Dickens Bleak House reference is correct - there are a number of streets in the area with Dickens related names. --IanRitchie 10:06, 26 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal[edit]

I propose getting ride of Chowhick as the nickname is already dealt with here. Also, no one spells it 'Chowhick'. --Helenalex (talk) 10:55, 7 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Done.--Helenalex (talk) 23:09, 10 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
