Well... eveilgrin:

Nope. Nada. Nyet.
Mind you, I have never been to london so I am a Man Utd city Leyton Orient fan.
Southampton are propping up the bottom of league one (thats Div. 3 to Johny Foreigner types) they need some fans.
Perhaps we should all sign up? tunble:
Leicester are doing well however. cloud9: cloud9: cloud9:

@ Paphitis... No.
But by an eery coincidence I have been browsing their brand guidelines over the past couple of weeks.
They use a typeface called Syntax in various weights; not a lot of people know that. surrender:

Good Lord no ~ we don't want that sort in here.

I am a Chelsea follower and have been since 1968...yet I couldn't call myself a fan or a supporter as I've never seen them live or been to Stamford Bridge. I always played local soccer, Saturday and Sunday league until I was too old to carry on. I was too busy playing soccer to take time time out to go and watch it. I don't play any more, and I couldnt watch a game either, I'd want to be out there!

Much the same with me. I played Rugby, slipping gracefully from the first fifteen into the seconds and then the thirds until the club sec. asked me to "turn out next week for the veterans". So I stopped playing. Some months later was asked to "run the line" for the "mini-rugby" (boys under ten team in which my eldest son then played) I was so knackered by half time (twenty minutes each way) that they had to get one of the Mums to take over. redface:

Nah ~ Tiny really, it just seems big when you don't know where you are going but anything worth seeing is in a very small area ~ like Paris.
-
Unless you like alleyways eveilgrin:
Paris is tiny by comparison. London has many hidden corners and nooks and stuff cloud9:
Paris turns its back on you.
-
True but then you and I know London and you can walk from one side to the other in a couple of hours same as Paris.
People get confused as to what constitutes London. As far as I am concerned, in this context, it extends only from the Thames to the Marylebone Road and from Marble Arch to the River Lee (just past the Blackwall Tunnel approach). Nothing much outside of that counts ~ I am prepared to cross the river but only to get to the South Bank or Waterloo.

We had our wedding do in Chiswick.
We advertised it to include:
Beach
Boats
Bonfire
Barbecue
Balcony
Fireworks
It was all of those
Also close to the A4
London is fabulously diverse cloud9:
-
Read also bloody expensive and full of foreigners.
-
Paphitis, note how your brave attempt at starting a Chelsea football thread has turned into a London geography lesson. This is normal so do not be put off. lol:
Anywho:
Chelsea enjoy the giddy heights at the top of the Premiership after beating the mighty Burnley.
-
I went to Burnley once.
Dreadful mistake. noooo:
-
I recommend Ackroyd's London: the Biography cloud9:

And who was it mentioned London eh? EH? EH?
rubschin: You don't suppose that Paphitis was trying to "come out of the closet" and tell us he is a Chelsea fan do you? I mean I know he's in Oz and all that but NOBODY admits to following Chelsea surely.
-
Not when spurs win & knock them off the top of the premiership.
Your lot drew by the way.
-
Whoops! Belay that post. Still on top by goal difference.

One point at a time ~ only another seven weeks then and we'll be on 0 sad24:
Somehow I don't see us gaining promotion this season.
