Thamesmead is the place for you ega. Trendy as ****.Originally Posted by eastgermanautos
Seems a little dire, bro. On the real.
I kind of liked the Primrose Hill area near Regents Park. Although prob a little too pricy for my bum ass.
Edmonton is just like Primrose Hill but significantly cheaper.
What is Trendy at our advanced age, might not be trendy for a hipster like him

I went to Trendy Shoreditch the other week.
People say how lovely it is. If you ignore the drug dealers every 2 feet. People are not streetwise imo.
When i lived down in Islington, I found Hoxton and Shoreditch to be crap imho, couldn't see what the fuss was

exactly. This is what I try to explain to the Londoners I work with / married too.
Londoners who are relatively new to the City who tell me how certain ares are nice but they were crap and will always be crap imo
When you lived in Islington I presume both Hoxton and Shoreditch were crap, shíthouses to use the Estate Agent lexicon.
I worked in the Old Street area initially from 88-94 and it was a relative kip, you would be into work and back out straight after. The road out via Hoxton and other areas such as Dalston would be used merely as an escape route.
Shoreditch existed, but it did not exist, if that makes sense. I went to a Club Dog event once in Shoreditch Town Hall, perhaps the only time my social circle and I gave the area our much coveted stamp of approval.
Now it is cool. As I visited recently with my family I was amazed at its reinvention. All beards and food served on anything other than a plate. In summary wall to wall ****s, but they appeared to be enjoying themselves so good luck to them.
