It's not, it's because generally your support of the BNP shows a lack of intelligence that is evidence within your posts.
:rotfl:
Please don't play this game where BNP supporters are thick.
You really think I spelt people as ppl for real? Course not.
Don't play me.
There is no lack of intelligence. TrashHi, we’ve had to remove your signature. If you’re not sure why please read the forum rules or email the forum team if you’re still unsure - MSE ForumTeam0 -
I wouldnt go for E&C either.
As a rough guide, dont go for anything inside the boroughs of Lambeth, Southwark, Croydon, Haringey, Newham, and Hackney.
Some people who live there might protest, but the truth is, these are filthy gang-ridden khazis that are best avoided.
Look to Clapham/Balham/Earlsfield/Southfield area in SW London, Bromley, Orpington, Petts wood areas in SE London.
Dont go north of the river. You get nose-bleeds there and the people are odd.
I used to discount Haringey until I lived in Highgate,tis very lovely there!
You wouldnt live in the areas about London bridge then? Or Surrey Quays?
Some parts of Clapham fall under LB Lambeth, in fact most of it does.
FWIW I feel the same way about LB Brent! Not sure why though, it might be fine, in parts.:beer: Well aint funny how its the little things in life that mean the most? Not where you live, the car you drive or the price tag on your clothes.
Theres no dollar sign on piece of mind
This Ive come to know...
So if you agree have a drink with me, raise your glasses for a toast :beer:0 -

The entirity of that nice bit that everyone wants to live near called the Common belongs to Lambeth!
Dulwich is in Southwark, as is the entirity of the South Bank which I'd put high on my list of desirable.
And Croydon, well it's the largest Borough in the whole of London that runs far in every direction of Croydon itself and has some gorgeous parts to it.Everything that is supposed to be in heaven is already here on earth.

Yeah, those gang-ridden areas such as Highgate, Dulwich.......much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.0 -

You've pretty much ruled out most of London!!
As other posters have pointed out, most of Clapham/Balham come under Lambeth! Dulwich is in Southwark. Highgate/Southgate/Hampstead/St John's Wood is in North London and parts of Croydon are absolutely beautiful, in particular South Croydon/Purley!0 -
For gawds sake, the girl wants suggestions on where to live and once again a thread becomes a battleground.
May be OP take note of where people on here live
There are good and bad people in every town, area and country in the world. You have to be sensible but not frightened.
The thing that does concern me is your cat. Cant your mum keep him? Its a new place, a very busy place and well, Id hate him to get lost or anything.0 -

Original poster kindly ignore posts such as the one I've quoted.
