Why? Have you gone somewhere else?

London really isn't a fantastic place to live. But it's nice to spend holidays.

I haven't seen Napoleon Dynomite so I'm not sure what that means.

I lived in London for 17 years and loved it. Until, all of a sudden and for no apparent reason, it felt like it was time to leave and try something different. So we did.

It's a great place. I lived in Spitalfields and worked in Chelsea. My daily drive to work took me past the Tower, Charing Cross, Big Ben and all the way along the river. I had the most beautiful commute I could have wished for.

Napoleon's brother, Kip, lives at home and chats online all day. He developed a relationship with a girl named LaFawnduh. Kip's a midwestern skinny white guy. LaFawnduh is suppose to be a nubian princess. When she arrives, she slowly turns Kip into a gangsta with a giant diamond necklace, bandanna, and gold rings.

That movie is the BEST by the way. You have to see it. Absolutely hilarious.

I was born in London but haven't been back since I was ten (we also moved to Oz). I often wonder what my life would have been like had we stayed there.

Catching the ferry past the Sydney Opera House and the Bridge every morning ain't too shabby either.


Oh, and it amuses me that Simey is probably more of a Pom than I am.

Oh OK, I've been meaning to get that on DVD because the trailer seemed interesting when it was in the theater.

But I'm not quite Kip though...

I think I miss it mostly because I need a vacation, I like London, and the girl is my girlfriend.

Very nice pictures MallyMal, thank you for sharing.

Nobody could miss London that much if there wasn't a hottie involved.

Chin up dude. Only a couple of months to go.

Doesn't mean you can't train to be a cage fighter.

I'm not going to explain that one, you need to see the movie.

Actually, I get it because, after the first comment, I went to the official website and watched the clips they have.

I can't afford to live in London, one of these days I'm going to be forced to leave when I run out of money.

London is great, but difficult to settle down here. So damn expensive and not a very chilled out place to live. Lookinf forward to moving away to be honest..
