whats finchley like?

[Pingu]

oh well

after doing some digging I find that the company has links to proctor and gamble.

which means I wont take the job. shame really as it was an interesting project and the money was good but i wont have anything to do with P&G so thats that

Bloody hell some people are picky... Either too rough or too dull, too empty or too populous. Finchley is fine, not exactly exciting but with easy transport links to better places (or does everyone here live right next to a decent bloody venue or something?). Walking distance from the heath (and a few parks of its own), some places to eat out and not at all violent as London goes*.

I'd love to live in Finchley, far too expensive though.


*North can get a bit nasty as mentioned.

i live at the edge of east finchley and highgate. it's 'quiet' nice if u enjoy greens such as hampstead heath, highgate wood. the bishop's avenue, besides its million-pound residence properties, is probably the only single-carriage minor road in london where u can legally drive up to 40mph

I amazed that anyone thinks North Finchley is rough. But then I went to school with the scum people are scared of, I guess.

It's a bit pikey I guess. I've got plenty of local friends who do all their socialising in the pubs there and never out of the N12 post code.

finchley is dull twinsets-suburbia incarnate anyway

Finchley is a weird place with no soul.

And the historical home of Thatcher, btw

Just say no.

To be fair, it is now represented by a Labour MP- remeber Thatcher now left office some 18 years ago- an eternity in politics.
