About 5 fckn miles from my house and me in Bristol planning a job in London, any Londoners know what the area around Barnes bridge is like

Expensive property

Wannabe middle class white people

Rugby 

Where Chelsea fans pretend to be from

Plenty of East Euros 

On the plus side Richmond Park is nice.

Don’t forget to price in about £500 a week for parking, Congestion charge, Low emission zone etc etc mate 

If you are using a van check it meets LEZ requirements too because they are kicking you about £200 a day on older vans and trucks I think…..worth double checking anyway

Thought they had extended it out mate?

I know they moved it out to the 406 on the A13, didn’t know where else.

I think it’s worth double checking anyway as it could be a nasty surprise, depending where he stays it’s easy enough to stray into these zones on the way to the job and then the man’s done his bollocks for the day.

The first time I went up in a microlight I wondered if I should unbuckle my harness, I could almost envisage the jump, I wonder how many people have actually acted upon the impulse, not suicides who have thought it through but spur of the moment jumpers. 

Very strong urge to jump out a hot air balloon when it popped through the clouds, you know you can’t walk on clouds but still have a strong urge to find out
