I am series 1 of True Detective, you are series 2.

You sent armed response to the wrong station, I am already in the pub celebrating.

Of course, with my minute knowledge of London ethnography, the presence of a Sikh and the fact that it looked **** and pointless had already alterted me to the fact that it was West London (easily the ****test of all the Londons imo).

to make you glad to see Heathrow. It's also all the f**king same.

South London, on the other hand, is vibrant, exciting, diverse and interesting. West London is just London for people who don't really like London.

That alone puts me off. I always hated playing cricket away in ealing, richmond, twickenham. At least two mouthy young aussies in every team.

There was some slightly rotund chap with alopecia playing for the oppostion the other day and by the 11th or 12th time our keeper had called him 'George Dawes' I thought he was genuinely going to attack him with the bat. :hehe:

Yes, that's exactly the term I used when I missed the last tube back from brixton academy and had to walk home through stockwell that time.

It was an incredibly "exciting", "vibrant" and "diverse" remake of the film Warriors.

Chiswick, Ealing Common/Broadway. Obviously the posh bits have fine architecture, cute mews and so on but I assume you were referring to the deep west rather than Oligarchia.

Poor old Acton though. :-

And taking a nighttime stroll through much of East London (barring Hipsterville) pretty much invalidates your life insurance.

Then comes the Golden Mile of Art Deco on the A4 near Brentford. Hounslow is, of course, Hounslow. I have actually walked to Heathrow. :hehe: #mental

It's the Great Plains of the North West that define dullness though. One has not experienced the true endless horror of suburbia until one has marched through Metroland, from one end of Ruislip to the other and more. Crossing the North Circular and reaching the first yellow-bricked, three-storied houses of civilisation is like quenching a parched thirst.

He neglected to mention, however, that that was all it was. :-(

Berni

because there is literally not a single valid reason to go to Ruislip or Hounslow.

It just goes on forever and ever and ever. You have never known misery until you've taken the last tube from Holborn to Northolt. You embark merrily pissed and emerge with your hangover kicking in and the horrific realisation that you're in Northolt and that you're going to have to go back the next morning. :-(
