Actually, you're right, London as a whole comes, out 3rd bottom in the UK in a quick straw pole on Google….
In any case, bristolbiker, you can't talk. Bristol has all of the disadvantages of London and absolutely none of the advantages!
No, I'd disgree with that – my local single track is 50m from the door, and a bus to the centre takes 10 minutes the other way.
Like I said, I like London for what it is – as Elfin says above, it does have the shows, museums etc etc and that's fine…. which confirms my inital post that it is like a theme park, where all the rides are in one place and when you've had enough you can go home….
