Lewisham happiness
I urge you to please notice when you are happy, and exclaim or murmur or think at some point, 'If this isn't nice, I don't know what is.'
- Kurt Vonnegut
Happy Thursday, Brockley. The Office for National Statistics has published its latest set of UK happiness index data, including the national survey scores (April 2012 - March 2013), broken down for each London borough.
Lewisham scores slightly below the inner London average for happiness, but above the average for 'life satisfaction' and 'worthwhile lives'.
Overall, however, Londoners fare badly compared with their simple provincial cousins, which just proves we are here on Earth to fart around, and don't let anybody tell you different.
