I dont wanna ask them so 4 yrs ago where were you that day?
I just wanted to know quick since ur from E3 if you know the stations in ur own area that were shut. How can you not rem? :colonhash:


No I'm not from E3 and even if I was I wouldn't remember because I was 14 at the time and I didn't use the tube so I wouldn't bother finding out which tube stations were shut down.

that's all you had to say the 1st time. the "LOOOOOOL" wasn't necessary. enjoy ya thread.
I was born and raised in north west London not far off from Watford or Edgware the end of the northern line. I love living here but it's so long travelling to central London . Wouldn't want to live anywhere than here!

No I'm talking criminal activity xD why?


Oh just wondered. As an outsider I don't like West London at all, yeah I guess there's crime like that and also the obscene wealth divide. I know East London has bad bits but it's got a lot more character to me.

I don't think the crime rate in west London is that bad, but then I am a west Londoner so I'm probably a bit biased. East London has always seemed incredibly scary to me to be honest.

You're probably right. I just don't really like West London at all, it's mainly the obscebne wealth divide that is there as I say. Plus the river is less impressive there.

Is that a nice area?

Central London is a pain, it's always busy. Why do you travel into central London - for work?

Yeah I do but I'm always quite weary about going there and I never go alone. I guess the rep it has puts me off a bit.

It's a pretty nice suburban quite area everyone minds their own business and keeps themselves to themselves. Most people raise families here and it takes around 30 mins on the northern line to get to Camden it's not that far I'm just exaggerating lol but people that live closer to central are lucky I guess and yeah I commute to my part time job on weekends. There's lots of parks around and greenery and 3/4/5 bedroom houses

I do! It's an utter ****hole.

No really, there's some nice houses between highbury barn and the mosque but from there to manor house is pretty grim.

Oh is it? I only went once and it seemed quite nice, probably saw the nicer areas. Have you lived there your whole life?

I've lived in Holloway, which is just round the corner, since I was about 4 or 5, but I knew a few people who lived in that area.

I used to live in Highbury barn though, which is really nice, but alas it wasn't our house.
