Ace Nova Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) Members keep starting threads about U.S. states....so I figured why not start one about Greater London Region (Ceremonial County)....London and its 32 boroughs. So what's good about The Greater London Region? Edited January 23, 2014 by Kasanova King Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake-Pit Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Also, London's not a county; it's a region. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Nova Posted January 23, 2014 Author Share Posted January 23, 2014 Also, London's not a county; it's a region.I was referring to wiki....it states it's a "ceremonial county".... I'll take your word for it and edit though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake-Pit Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) Oh, you mean Greater London, yeah, that's not a county, but there's something called 'The Home Counties', counties that are commutable to London.

Snake-Pit Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 (edited) I was born in London thanks to Maggie Thatcher redrawing the map. also the house my family was living at the time and home address on my birth certificate is a London one anyway, but the hospital was in Croydon way before Croydon was in London, my closest brother by age was born before the change, hence his ID says Croydon, me, same place, born after the change that happened in the 1980s that made 'Greater London', mine say London; but London's always been my home anyways, so, yeah.

spunko12345 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 My granddad is from Bethnal Green in the East end, came to Cardiff in the 60's to work in the docks I have loads of cockney wankers in my family still down there. I moved up to Crouch End N8 in the summer but had to move back cos I got offered my dream job back in Wales but I still have a little thing going with this girl up there. She's from Islington and her accent is a massive turn off but she's fit and her old man works for the Arsenal so its gonna be a thing between us.

wasted Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 Don't like it much. Never felt comfortable. Brick lane is about as good as it gets and that's just because its scabby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake-Pit Posted January 24, 2014 Share Posted January 24, 2014 (edited) I feel like when I go out, I'm still inside, and I'm used to not really seeing the horizon on the ground unless I look up to the sky when I find a gap between some buildings like houses or shops or or hotels; Looking at skylines is neat though; Croydon has one, so does London. I'm like 5ft 11" but even I have to look up. Edited January 24, 2014 by Snake-Pit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
