Re: London top city

I looked up murders numbers out of curiosity for places I have lived as compared to London, the other day.
In 2017, the last full numbers I could find for the big ones
London - 1.2 per 100,000
Toronto - 1.47
Edmonton - 3.49 (to be fair, that is the highest in 5 years it was 2.10 in 2013 but 3.40 in 2016)
The places in States were too small and varied to keep track off apparently
This is the closest place to wear I actually grew up

The old school waffle was class.. Many Navy terms still exist even now..
Being a deep thinker.. Our language as our generation know it is changing before us rapidly.
LISTEN to the yoof now..
Thing is.. The bods back in the day would most likely be cringing at our efforts

Had a couple of mates from Gloucester who didn't see anyone black until they moved to London 25 years ago, but didnt cause them any tears.
They went to work in forest gate and so probably then didn't see any white people!!! :o)
Take it or leave it with London as have worked there (bond st, spitalfields and now tower bridge) for 30 years, but it's not hard to see why it's so popular.
Changed massively over the years and I love walking all the way along the Thames on either bank between wapping and battersea way. Some cracking buildings and places to go.

I don't suppose any of those telling us how great London is actually live in Tower Hamlets, Newham, Tottenham, Ilford, Barking etc, etc or various other shit holes that come under the London banner

It was a few years into life that I saw my first black person, to the point I remember it.
I did not cry. What were you telling your kids?

Is it wrong that I've had tears rolling down, laughing at Pickle's kids crying because they saw a black chap?

They were young children at the time they saw their first non-white person.
You are over fifty though and you still behave like an arsehole.
Why is this the case, Bats?

“I remember when he said one of his kids started crying when they saw a black person whilst in Germany.”
