si you wont even fucking drive in london,,,, let alone REALLY live here, 800 yards from your house is the essex boarder


as for camden,,,,, if you REALLY thought you was big you should have visited queens crescent nw5,,,,,, or if you wanted a REAL experience then a trip to rowley way in kilburn

i grew up in central london and have the chance to sell up and move out,,,,, but when you take into account i can get a bus to any major club and if i spend all my cash ( like saturday ) i can either get a bus home or EVEN WALK

working on upper street is just imense as the nights out are fucking class not to mention i get free parking in my work carpark

id NEVER move to any other area cause,,,, well id miss the 24 hour shop across the road from my house where i can buy beer all night long,,,, and then there is the REAL stuff we take for granted by living in london,,,, i cried when i found out some parts of london have no busses that run all through the night,,,,,, AND THEN I WENT TO FUCKING DURHAM WHERE THERE BUSSES RUN EVERY FUCKING HALF HOUR AND YOU DONT EVEN HAVE A FUCKING BUS SERVICE ON A SUNDAY

fuck that,,,,,, im staying in my N4 post code thanks though i would like to pay less than 145 a month for council tax ASWELL as service charge and resident parking permits,,,,, but its worth it

fuck knows how westy gets back from fabric's when he goes there,,,, a cab too kilburn cost me 22 quid saturday

Phil did you buy the bike from Chris Clarke Racing ?

If not , thats what the CCR stands for on the carbon belly pan , and most likely where all the extras were fitted , he is or was a BIG Duke specialist

think about the logic of it though,,,,, your car breaks down,,, say battery is DEAD,,,,,, its sunday and you need to get it fixed for work on monday so you make your way to halfords and then realise,,,,,, SHITE THERES NO FUCKING BUSSES !!!!!

oh and i never even mentioned the underground system, the overland train system,,,,,, i was too busy thinking of the 1 bus ever 4 mins thats out side my fucking front door ( yes thats a fucking night bus that should be banned !)

honestly mate cant fault london,,,,, ive thought about moving loads of times as i can buy a place in a inbred village like where you live lee and STILL have change left over BUT,,,, and this is the ONLY reason,,,,, i go out to tooo many places all over london and ive not even been to 50% of the big clubs local to me

oh my main road ive got Nandos, la porchetta, la papagone, nismo noodle bar, thai resturant, lots of junk food places, ive got 2 NEXT DOOR TO MY LOCAL CHINEESE THATS NEXT DOOR TO ME !!!, a 24 hour supermarket, a polish deli, a itallian delli

AND I LIVE IN THE FUCKING PIKEY PART OF ISLINGTON

i could eat and drink and STILL fall on my door step to get home without even using a bus,,,,, i get the fucking milk in my missus pink fluffy slippers,,,, and i have to pas a pub to do that,,,,,

and then im 20 mins TOTAL travel time to oxford street, lecester square, maiyfair,,,,, think about that,,,,,, infact my local underground station has the BEST access to ALL of central london

i could NEVER move,, to some quiet place where i have to stick cardboard on my window of may car as the place freezes over in fucking july


central london,,,, dont get me wrong its a little crowded,,,,, but its a fucking pukka place to live if you belive in living life rather than wasting you life investing and THEN enjoy life when you 55,,,,,, id rather live it,,,, i could get run over tommorrow and i will die knowing i was clubing in tottenham with one set of mates friday and then in farringdon on saturday with another group of mates,,,, life dont get much better i promise

mate he got the bike in camden mate,,,,,, that means the parts started life on some rich city bankers daily duke commite bike but then the local kids from burmarsh estate went out with there transit van and 2 scaffold bars nicking all the nice dukes in the W1 post code and then delivered it back to the back door of some bike specialist under the silverlink arches where the bike was stripped like a KFC hot wing and then all the nice parts stuck on dropped duke bought from Ebay and then featured in a bike mag with CRAZY claims about what millitry hellicopter and fighter jets its out run whilst ragging in on euston road and then sold on to phil when they old bill tugged the bloke for driving with no licence, no tax and no insurance

phil,,, the best way to understand camden town is to visit camden lock market,,,, theres blokes there selling milk bottles with the insides painted pretty colours for 5 quid each,,,, wost thing is PEOPLE ARE FUCKING BUYING THEM !!!!

Anyway have I hit a raw nerve phil

Saying you retired on here all the time to me makes it sound like your bigging yourself up as some kind of self made business man - which I would be very surprised if that was really the case!

Don't live in London myself but do work there and I fooking love it. Wish now when I was younger I had lived in central london (money allowing!) for a period of time (I think all peeps in their 20s should do it!) !

Due to having the family now there is no way I would move into London now but will move somewhere that gets me into the centre by train within 45mins.

Things I like about london are:

1. Transport - no need to fook about with a stupid car.
2. People - different nationalites, colours, religion, languages etc all mixing together.
3. Infinite shopping for anything.
4. Infinite places for entertainment at more or less any time of day.
5. etc etc etc!!

thats only fun until the time you pop out of a hole with the name "brixton station",,,, thats when you appriciate the ethnic cultures it has to offer,,,,, handing over all you money to a set of youths and then your trainers to his parents who are also mugging you

theres a starbucks in yorkshire,,,,,,, fuck me you guys have progressed,,,,,, you tight fuckers have learned to spend money

Worked in London for 6 months mainly areas like Deptford, Peckham and Camberwell etc and they really were shit holes on a full scale level, people can not defend these areas at all and try to compare them to areas in other towns and cities as nothing touches them surley. London as a whole in my eyes is not a nice place to live and i have been to most areas but i do enjoy a weekend on the piss when i go for football especially getting out the centre to the proper pubs.

Agreed with John really, I'm often down London these days, and I'm not been funny but its a shit hole, full of pepole who think they live in the centre of the universe.

I just see loads of pepole wandering round who have no grasp of reality.

No saying all Londerners are wierdos BTW. Just go for a drive round and you see some right sights

I agree, I work in London (westminster luckily ) and even there some of the people you see there wandering around makes you walk a bit faster!

I think you can say that most places have shitty bits, that said I am glad I live well outside London

People near me say they would love to live in Brighton?! Why!!! it is a proper shit hole that place (with the exception of the areas that no one can afford to live in) and unless you like getting your skin chimney dirty every night why the fuck would you want to live there!
