Do you like London?

not particuarly.

Are you reading anything I'm saying?

Sure you're allowed not to like London, but most people who claim to hate it so much barely even know what its like outside of central London and the West End and what they hear on TV.

London's such a huge and great place that it really has a place for anyone, and if you give it enough of a chance it grows on you despite all the negatives you might see from day to day.

Of course other cities have this too, but most other cities I've been to (admittedly not many) have a lot more of an obvious charm, whereas London has to be learned and understood in order to become acclimatised to.

Stop freaking out every time I say something.

getting drunk in the middle of a sunny day in green park and watching everyone going about their work, rollerblading in kensington gardens when its really hot. i think all of us have been on at least one date involving the boats on the serpentine, small french patisseries in south ken, hot french girls from the lycée, sunday brunch in a westbourne grove bistro, climbing over the gates to get out of the parks once they have been locked at night, maroush juice on kensington high street, sitting in the sun outside a pub with people after work, those annoying people selling roses in the west end at night, all day house parties, getting out of town to the continent or the country to avoid carnival on august bank holiday, football and volleyball in hyde park on the grass, watching those people playing rollerhockey near the albert hall, spending a boiling day chilling with friends and going clubbing, walking home with people just going to work in the morning...

i lub london in the summer

got all sentimental there haha

It just costs a fortune to do the basics, travel and eat! Your money gets you nothing and may as well be peanuts imo.

Anywhere you go you'll spend a fortune if you're eating out all the time. If you're actually living there, then it's no more expensive to eat than it is when you live elsewhere.

And transport is pretty damn cheap! I live in Kent and it costs my £3 a time to get two miles on the bus! And London definitely isn't any more expensive than the other Western capital cities I've been to, with an Oyster card.
