Don't go there: Five places to avoid

1. London

All year round, it is the European capital with the worst cuisine, worst traffic, highest prices and most unwelcoming natives, as well as being burdened with a service industry that has only the most tenuous connection with the concept of service or, indeed, industry. Don't go there. If you hanker after the London experience, sit in a bathful of your own sweat in a room full of exhaust fumes and pale sneering people in shorts, and burn twenties with a lighter.

hahahaaa, so true.

You could probably say the same of any major / capital city.
I think London is great for tourists ( at least everyone I know who's been there has loved it).

And, as a Londoner myself, I also think it's the best place in the world to live... but I do admit I'm slightly biased there biggrin.gif

Nearest thing I'll ever be to liking London, is supporting Westham in the F.A. cup final.

Say what you like about Liverpool, I could'nt give a hairy arse. Fact is, I'm from there but also lived in London for years, so am justifed to comment on it.

That's an article based on one person's point of view (ok, maybe a couple of guardian journalists' points of view):
