It's nice to see so many of us have pride in our capital I've only been once, when I was about 6 so can't remember much of it. I wouldn't like to go again tbh, I value my life

i go alot, and i have never, ever feared for my life.
Maidenhead/slough are far more dangerous
London is steeped in architecture and history, its modern, ancient and there is SO much to do.
Plus if your in the city and you have a comfy pair of shoes and a map you can walk to most of it. If not you can jump on the tube

South side isn't as nice as north. I know of people being raped and stabbed in the Walworth area.

You're better drinking around London Bridge then jumping the tube down to the O2. The O2 is in the in the middle of no where.
I live ten mins in the car from the O2
