???? Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 London's a big place and many of you don't know much of it so I thought it would be worth naming some places that are definitely NOT worth a visit. To avoid accusations of bias I have chosen from all 4 points of the compass.EnfieldBarkingsideWoolwichFelthamPlease feel free to add...or disagree if you're mad.yup, I'm bored.

mockney piers Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Are we talking visitation here? The lizards are already here. That said, Dalstn hasn't got much going for it apart from traffic.

mockney piers Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 Yes, had some great beers in Plaistow, but it is undeniably a characterless not worth visiting. Cutting to the chase would east dulwich be worth anyone going out of their way for if they haven't got friends down their for food and drink? plenty of places have cheese and nicknacks surely. Is their a USP? an unusually high concentration of cookwank perchance?

matthew123 Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 TOTTENHAM - First time I visited Tottenham was Football and our bus broke down - and when all the Spurs football supportes (&hooligans) had long departed home the Police rounded all 50 of us up from the bus and into a nearby Members only Pub for our own safety from the locals, and then the Police proceeded to circle the block for the next hour in their dog van...
