It wouldn`t be fair of me to say I hate London because I don`t.,,BUT,,I have to visit the place a few times a year for the sake of business. I stay with friends and have a good time for a few days..Visiting is one thing. To have to live there would most certainly be my idea of hell...

Yup, I love London.... lol @ 'strange people'!!

I've never lived there but used to stay with my boyfriend every other weekend... would love to do so for a couple of years, I'd not settle there though, just because I'd want to settle in the country. I'd miss the stars after a while....

I lived in London for all of 2006. I did not like it, though this may have had a lot to do with my high expectations. Londoners are extremely class conscious(eg- they constantly place each other based on accent) and can be very difficult to work with (it can be very hard to get their opinion on a work matter, for example.) London can be very expensive, and londoners put up with terrible services (some subway lines are a joke.)

Having said that, London can be extremely cool. There are a ton of things to do. And londoners are the most diverse crowd I have seen(I have lived in 9 countries).

I think you would need to learn to appreciate London in its own unique way. Then you would love it.
