London - what do you think of the big smoke

[monty]

What do you think of the big city, any good or bad points including its people, places and of course football teams. As far as I'm concerned the sooner I'm back to Merseyside the better, can't stand the place,its dirty, seedy, ignorant and very far from being friendly. I can't say much about cockneys as they seem to be extinct, British accents are a rarity in the smoke

I used to visit quite a lot ans my Gran lived there.

It's okay for a short trip but I couldn't imagine living there

I also can't imagine driving there. Driving in Manchester with it's brutal maze of one way streets is bad enough. God knows what it would be like in London!

Great place love it.

If i hadn't met mrs ijjy i'd be living there now.

I love big cities though.

I like to go there now and again to add to my collection of souvenir beefeater bears

It's a horrendous sh1tehole of a place. Horrible people.

I have a feeling this poll won't be won by my vote!

Don't like it. It's the pollution that does for me. As you come up on the train from the south west you can see the smog blanket hanging over it.

Generally find the population to be a bunch of asshats aswell.

Too busy, too expensive, not welcoming.

I miss the smell of smog in the morning.



No seriously, in this clean green atmosphere, it's weird not having it about!

See they are the things I like!

You like paying £6 for a pint? Are you insane?

I prefer cities to quieter areas but London just doesn't feel comfortable to be in.

I don't drink remember! (well sort of).

I don't mind the cost of things in London. If you go there and expect cheap things then that's your own silly fault! And you can find some true bargains in parts of London. And by parts of London I mean Camden which is my fave part of London.

Remember bartering (is that the right word) with some lad selling crap on the market for a Thundercats belt buckle. I won.

Never worn the buckle. It's impractical FFS.

 

[bluejock]

Forgot that. You big gay.

But yeah, travel, food, accommodation, attractions, all rather overpriced. I'll give you Camden though, I quite like it there too.
