London is the most buzzing happening city and i love it. Been to Paris, New York Venice etc but London is my fave
London is famous for "The Haze City" have the world most expensive daily life cost...along side with NYC, Tokyo and Shanghai...
I hated visiting London. I don't like it when there are masses of people in one place for a start, but London was taking the piss. Everyone is only out for themselves, there is no logical pattern to where things are (shops, offices, anything), could rant more but I can't be bothered
More foreigners than Brits live and visit London and they are the ones that drop fag ends, spit in the street and dump refuse in the streets. Just look outside any takaway early a.m. and they pile last nights rubish anywere.
Thank you very much for this information. I believe I have read an article previously that there are places in London that puts penalty to smoke belching vehicles as a way to lessen pollution.
