nah haha I just hate Northampton, i can't believe my parents chose to live here! it's a working mans town, dull atmosphere, lots of OOOOOLD poeple who get in the way!! lots of crappy pubs
I prefer to be in a city with loads of cool places to explore... people seem more interesting, and you can express yourself easier without feeling judged...

Ive heard good things about clapham (sarf of the river, so a no no for me), but yeah, everywhere up town has what you are after, depends what rent you want to pay.. you can get anywhere on the tube

i know what you mean, but lets say you decided to wear a gothic lolita outfit that you made partly yourself...(if you are a girl) you could easily walk through a busy city and be accepted without people sneering , but in a smaller town you become a joke
The reason things are more accepted in a big city is because of diversity, i am a diverse person, i am into allot of different things and i need a place that can provide these things

Remember that collective that was doing up old containers and tube cars and depositing them atop buildings around London?That was supposed to be cheap affordable housing.

I can't recall. I left lovely London in 2000 and as a kid was carted all over the place.
I thought cheap housing was Charing Cross station and a sleeping bag (if you're lucky). :(

stratford is a massive shithole, has been since i can remember. i was born in dagenham and i'm 33 now.
almost all of london is worth swerving as a place to live. too expensive, miserable, shit, likely to get turned over and basically full of desperate cunts who have little sense of community spirit who contribute to making the whole place as big a mess as it is.

u mean u cant afford to live there and you're jealous.
london is brill; everything is there that you could possibly want. there are loads of communities in london, only a truly ignorant person would think otherwise. sure, some parts are shit, like every city, but then many parts are absolutely beautiful.
oen of the best things is that its incredibly multicultural, which brings a great sense of unspoken acceptance - exactly how a modern society should be.

yeah, don't get me wrong, there are many plus points to living in london and there are some really nice areas, but overall it's an expensive, run down, vastly over populated city, and for many places that brings a bad attitude and big crime rate.
west london area is probably the nicest, fulham area out towards surrey.
