In response to your question, I would say that London is anything but boring and sleepy. So many people, attractions, theatres, restaurants, transport facilities, black taxis in what really is a wealthy, multi-cultural City. Just so much to see and do and certainly not boring unless you are driving around trying to find your way out! LOL |

But i'll stick with the Lakes, the Dales and the Yorkshire Moors thanks. Edited by: Dave John at:14th February 2012 17:45 |

On the contrary, it is always busy and there's always things to do in London for all the tribes... A point I should make is that it is a BIG city guys, so unless you have made the most out of your time there, it's hard to say if the place is boring or if your experience was boring. :) |

I once visited Ireland and I still remember the advise given to me by an Irishman; if you want to see Ireland, go away from Dublin. Perhaps to same advise can be given to those who want the see England? Edited by: patrick van calck at:4th May 2012 12:19 |
