Yep. Best city on the planet.
Went on a date with a girl once in London and we took a pit stop in a pub. I offered to buy a round of drinks for us as a treat. Went to the bar with a tenner. Had to come back and ask her if she had 2 quid on her. It's a shame because she was pretty too...
Once I pulled an all nighter out there in my teens with mates and at the tube station on the way back there were a bunch of scousers who were deliberately standing on the wrong side of the escalator, blocking off about 10 people. Being from London, not one of them said a thing whilst they were desperately trying to push past. I was so rough but it gave me a good laugh. Never thought I'd be thankful for a scouser.
On a side note, Londoners are so far up their arse about London. No wonder they're all United fans ;)

Always love going down there and having a blow-out. If you’ve got money to burn, it’s just the fucking best. I love the place; it’s one of the world’s great cities. I wouldn’t want to live there, but I’d love to be able to afford to visit more often.

Yes it's awesome down here. If you're with mates/birds etc. It's a lonely place solo. I could go into ANY pub within the M25 and spark up a conversation easily.Always love going down there and having a blow-out. If you’ve got money to burn, it’s just the fucking best.

If you’re suggesting it’s less friendly down there I’d broadly agree with you. I love the friendliness of northerners and midlanders, that you don’t get in the same numbers down in the south east.Yes it's awesome down here.

Not being funny, but there’s a million better places to go than where you are right now. London has so many amazing, quirky places.I'm going home tomorrow mate. Came down for the match last night and stayed an extra day. Hence the thread, getting a feel for the place now
