Here it is

So, welcome to my blog about life in London. London and I have had a rocky relationship these past few months and I'm determined to get back that lovin' feeling. I've lived here for six years since I moved here as a student, and most of that time I've loved it and I still do, but recently I've become increasingly disillusioned. I know I'm not the only one and I know this deep disappointment I'm feeling isn't just about the city, it's more political than that and I'm not going to go into it here, plenty of people are doing it already. There are so many things to be fed up with or pissed off about that I've decided to write this blog as a way of helping me re-discover the city, my faith in people and an outlet for the occasional rant, of course.
My main purpose is to explore London more, the hidden nooks and crannies and to spot the little details that so often go un-noticed. Hopefully, it will lead to some interesting discoveries about London, its people and its eccentricities and maybe even uncover a few stories along the way. I want to be a bit more open to all that London has going for it, all the cultures, all the people that live here, it's so diverse. We're all guilty of being grumpy to the point of ridiculousness on the tube, in rush hour, packed in like sardines, well I am like that off the tube, a lot of the time. I am known for being pretty grumpy really, I like to call it 'no-nonsense' but really, I am a grumpy sod - I think I get it from my Dad!
I'm not going to say this will exclusively be about London, there's bound to be some other stuff thrown in but all with a London theme.
