I think of the British Museum, filthy streets, Finsbury Park station, graffitti on the walls, Camden market, the beautiful daffodils in St James Park in the summer, confused tourists, the DLR platform at Stratford, the benches by the side of the Thames near the Houses of Parliament, the flower shop at Liverpool Street station, Big Issue sellers you talk to, Notting Hill carnival, oyster cards, flyposters, sprinting across the crossings on a red light hoping not to get run over, Leceister Square KFC, the bumper cars in the Trocadero, the sweatiness of the tube, Sway, the whiteness of the Tate Britain, grey rain.......... I could go on all day.
London - my home :)

There certainly is, 2 weeks ago for instance, Scotland was the centre of the country and of the world, as it voted in its independence referendum. Liverpool and Manchester also get their fair share of the limelight too. But London is the largest city by quite some way, with world class everything. It is also where the news and media outlets have the headquarters, so news tends to be very London-centric, and that is why it seems that London is the only place in the country.

Crime, everyone out for themselves, lots of faceless faces. I used to love London, but it has changed so much in recent years. It used to be home. Now I only go there to visit family.
