Jesus Christ, those photos of Golders Green make me so nostalgic. I had a largely miserable time living there, but it came to be incredibly familiar. So much time spent in those same charity shops...so many fabulously ugly jumpers and odd hats purchased... I miss that place in an odd kind of way...
oh, it's a good area for chazzas, as are most Jewih areas, actually. Looking forward to a jaunt up to Swiss Cottage as rember good pickings there before...
The only times I've been to Golders Green was for the net.goth picnics in Golders Green Park. There used to be loads of Chinese places to eat-I wonder if they are now mostly Japanese.
In my view, Camden is best avoided at the weekend - the whole area is so crowded as to be horrible. But that's just me.
I share your escaltor rant. Down in London for a few days, I had to stop myself from kicking people who were piling onto a tube at Paddington, before letting the hordes waiting to get off the train with their luggage actually do so. So sooooo stupid. Just - get - out - of - my - way. (Not you. Them!)
I am a little scared of escalators anyway, always irrationally worried about getting sucked into the teeth, so like a good, clear path of exit in front me...people who just stop as soon as they've gotten off, having no thought <>at all about the people racking up behind them, deserve a very sharp kick in the ankle to make them move. It's so bloody stupid. GGRrrrrRRRRR!!!!
...and yes, I usually avoid Camden at the weekend, but as it's the only time I can get up right now, it was unavoidable.
