what doesn't kill me only makes me MORE CHIC
It was a DIAMONDI know it’s being demolished nowadays but the Elephant & Castle Shopping Centre lasted at least 15 years too long.

Oh I have to disagree. At least some of it is quite exotic, e.g. shops selling DATES. Mind you I would say that the section north of Talgarth Road is a BIT SCABBYNORTH END ROAD
Until you get to that church just before Fulham Broadway and it suddenly goes from SHIT to FANCY
Obviously I hate shopping anyway but I would never think of going to Regent Street for ANYTHING. Totally unnecessary. Turn it into a ZOO with a PETTING FARMREGENT STREET!
Just DISGUSTINGLY overcrowded![]()
Oh now that is well grottyVICTORIA COACH STATION
£9 for a CHAKA KHAN ROYALE MEAL at the BURGER KING? ELECTROCUTE the OWNERSOh now that is well grotty![]()

Oh God they’re EVERYWHERE. Who needs them? NO-ONE! Is their coffee nice? NO IT IS BURNT!Also - EVERY SINGLE PRET. REWILD THEM ALL!
They had a Clarks outlet which was quite useful for comfortable work shoes.REGULARLY when I LIVED NEARBY. It was a CENTRE of LATIN AMERICAN EMIGRÉ CULTURE
(OKAY BARELY EVER IN THE LAST TEN YEARS)
YES but you have to pay 50p entryDo they still do cruising and jerking off in the urinals in Victoria (coach?) station? I used to love that.

Now OBVIOUSLY I'm always partial to a HAM 'N' GRÊVE BAGUETTE but REALLY NOW, other than that I'd usually RATHER HAVE THE EQUIVALENT IN CASH/GREGGSOh God they’re EVERYWHERE. Who needs them? NO-ONE! Is their coffee nice? NO IT IS BURNT!
I am OFTEN MISTAKEN for EVITA whenever OUT AND ABOUT
I bet you fitted right in with your LATINA LOOKS![]()
Toilets are FREE at the train station now though. A memorable evening of LOW COST LOVE guaranteedYES but you have to pay 50p entry
Oh I’m refusing to go to Greggs again after this week’s incident of my peckishly buying three items and having them thrust at me under the plastic window with nary an offer of a bag WHICH I HAD TO ASK FOR AND WHICH WAS SIMILARLY THRUSTNow OBVIOUSLY I'm always partial to a HAM 'N' GRÊVE BAGUETTE but REALLY NOW, other than that I'd usually RATHER HAVE THE EQUIVALENT IN CASH/GREGGS
Well…Oh I DO like a good Paul (with every macaron I DAINTILY EAT, ISIS will NEVER TRIUMPH), but obviously I have to take out a mortgage for every BAGUETTE MIXTE and RASPBERRY MACARON lunch so it's a ONCE EVERY LUNAR ECLIPSE affair for me these days BEING ON BENEFITS AND LIVING OUTSIDE LONDON AND ALL
Anyway GET TO THE MEAT @Zu 2 WHAT DID YOU ORDER FROM GREGGS (AND HOW MANY OF THE THREE ITEMS WERE YUM YUMS)
But crucially - DID THEY DESERVE IT?I once saw someone get SHOT outside of Peckhamplex cinema![]()
Well they might be hot but they’re not necessarily dipping a hand in the right purse IF YOU SEE WHERE I’M GOINGAll this SARF LANDON hate when EAST is full of SCUMMY AREAS! At least the RIFF-RAFF mugging you in PECKHAM RYE LANE are HOT!
The West London one (visited once) is EVEN WORSE. What a HELLISH LAYOUT!STRATFORD WESTFIELD

What a DOWNGRADE from the Palaestra!My office is based there![]()
Well the inside of the building is better. The lifts actually work and there are not rats running around. But Palestra was nice and central with better places to eat, and getting lunchtime £10 tickets at the Old Vic was an amazing perk.What a DOWNGRADE from the Palaestra!
Is that Shepherd's Bush? HATE IT.The West London one (visited once) is EVEN WORSE. What a HELLISH LAYOUT!
