So who is from London, or close by?

[Jel]

Just a nosy thread really, to see how many people are from London, or very close to it.

Born in Edmonton, wood green until I was about 3, and Enfield until I was 15, before making a tiny hop across the M25 to cheshunt.

You?

Northampton around 60 miles away

It's weird - I cant think of anyone else here - It's meant to be London/Paris/New York - The 'world class' cities...

rogue isn't too far away from London, Paul the guy that used to be on B&B who disappeared a few years back was also from cheshunt (which is relatively small) but moved to Leeds, and went to school with some of my mates, Johnny Traffic is from London. I know there's a few more but I can't think off the top of my head. I *think* JT is but can't quite remember.

You?

I was born in the City of London, and grew up in south east London: Greenwich, Blackheath, and (ugh) Croydon. My last job in England was at the Tesco head office in Cheshunt, and I lived in Waltham Cross.

heh, delamare road My last job I worked at was just round the corner in fieldings road. My last place I lived in cheshunt (spent ages 15 - 40 there) was just a few minutes from tesco head office. Used to knock about in the cross a lot in my teens. small world

and croydon.. wtf. it's like someone said lets make a place, but have it the most awkward cunt to get to. Whether you use the M25 or go straight through the city, a shitcunt either way to get to lol.

I was a bit too close to Harlow

Damn, I see the BK has closed down by the cinema. Harlow was very useful for shopping, cinema and jobs We would also get some Harlow kids venturing over to the schools, some real characters (normally they'd have been expelled from the schools in Harlow).

Almost had a bad incident in Harlow once, many years ago a huge group of thugs chased us, we made it to the car, it was close to something bad happening, they blocked the road as I drove towards them, fortunately they didn't play Chicken or we would have all lost that game

I was born in Enfield & lived there until early teen. I moved to Poole where I met my partner Gary, who grew up in Luton & Bedford until he moved to Poole in his early 20s

Our families are still in Enfield, Bedford & Northampton

I like Bishop's Stortford, it has one of the weirdest High Streets you ever see, if you can call it a high street that is. Narrower than most of the side roads!

Yeah im in Glasgow, home of sectarian bigots

Damn, small world what part of Enfield? I was down in Enfield Lock.. Bishop Stopford's was my secondary school, 1983 - 1988, brother went to Albany. I think we are not *too* far apart in age (you and I that is, not me and my brother lol) - we probably know a few of the same people

edited to add:

ah, until early teens. probably don't know any of the same people then after all
