London is a city full of hidden alleyways, secret parks and countless abandoned underground stations, which are known as…Ghost Stations. There are seemingly as many as forty dotted all over London. Hopefully one of these days I will get the opportunity to enter the subterranean and spooky like...

London just like most other big cities all over the world it  has got its fair share of criminals and scumbags. It seems that almost every other day I’m reading about a teenager stabbed or shot to death in London, for no real reason. The only person that doesn’t seem to see the shoplifters...

London Is Cool as you can see is very obviously a blog. I’m based in London and my personal ramblings are mainly about my adventures and experiences in this amazing city.

London is a city that hooks you in if you let it. Sure the place has a ton of bad points and faults. But doesn’t any city? One thing I truly love about living in the Big Smoke is the diversity of the people that make up this amazing place. There are seemingly over 300 different languages spoken...

I thought this is a stroke of luck, the rest of them until this point had been packed. After I sat down I found out why it was half empty....

I was wandering along the North Bank of the River Thames on Saturday afternoon, when I heard an announcement come over what sounded like a tannoy speaker. It said, “pull over to the bank on your right and do it now”. I thought WTF is happening, have those Yanks that were confused over the names of...

Famous fictitious London residents, I know with this article I’m going to shatter the dreams of many people, especially my American friends.

I have written about the subject of property rental scammers on numerous occasions. It however seems that some  people are still not paying attention to my words of wisdom. Or the only other thing, which I can think of is that some people like to be scammed. Last week the misery, which is caused by...
