Some of us at 32CT are feeling the strains and the dodgy-ness of staying in acton. If it isnt a weird Somalian dude trying to get through into the block, its either hoodies (local yobs) or eastern european thugs making malice on the streets. Its pretty cool to walk around in the day time, but i must admit even i get the chills walking back late. thinking twice about whipping out the phone, ipod or any other possesions is usually the case. Dont get me wrong, acton has alot to offer, being a melting pot area for the polish, afrikains, indians and a couple others, stuff is cheap and u can get halal meat on every corner, besides being strategicly located in between uni(ealing) and central london. although, having a nice stroll after a nite out is not usually the offering here tho.
Went to go check out some flats in affluent/tourist flocking Paddington in central london today. Question: What do u get for 140 pounds a week in a place like paddington?
Answer: A SHIT HOLE! a complete shit hole of a `room` being about 4 metres by 2 metres, plus an added wc and bathroom. package comes with A window. par punde. i thought the agent was playing some joke when he showed us this `very pleasant studio flat on the lower ground floor of a white stucco-fronted conversion`, being smaller than most domestic helpers back in kl i would presumely have.
Its just mad to finally realise how freaking expensive property is in London. yea i know the usual `london mahal doh` and all that but fuck me, its crazy man. thinking of purchasing a studio flat in central will hit u at a cost of around 300 000 pounds plus.
My conclusion: stay out of central central london. if that isnt possible, work hard, oh fucking yeah work hard to win that 2 million pound lottery
