Thanks.

cheers

I'd live in one of the big fuck off houses near where I live cos the location is brilliant but the house is too small.

Hampstead as well.

in Yosemite National Park or maybe Banff.

probably. either there or in Covent Garden or the bit of The City along the river.

Now I think maybe somewhere really central.

apparently they're putting in a new super fast line which gets to Victoria in, like, 20 mins!

If money was no object I'd by a really nice flat near the station.

In the Gherkin.

And since money is no object, I assume I can just evict everyone else and install a death ray of some kind at the top?

but maybe a nice leafy bit of Canonbury. The only problem would be that the neighbours would probably annoy me more.

Proper Highgate that is, not the almost Crouch end bit I live in now. In a massive house with a swimming pool.

(on a really nice old leafy road in Brixton) but I'd have the whole house not just the top 2 floors, and I'd do the garden up and pimp the place out with speakers in every room etc.

Or Highbury Terrace/Highbury Place/Highbury Crescent

This place also looks nice

Or Princess Di's old gaff if they've managed to repair the acidic bulimia scars in the bathroom and in the flower beds below her bedroom window

hmmm litter

I would buy the building and make it into a pimping home.

The views from there would be amazing, and as money was no object i'd get a helicopter to take me places to avoid traffic.

Definitely.

or clerkenwell. i lived in halls in bloomsbury. don't think i appreciated it enough at the time. i was just like YAY! LDN! THIS IS WHAT LDN'S LIKE! ffwd to second year, living in SEVEN SISTERS. lol.

Holy crap

between marylebone road and marble arch. or hampstead. or the quieter area next to regents park.

presumably i would have enough money to zip around in an electric car so the lack of transport links wouldn't be a problem.

They are incredible houses. I stayed in one for a week when I was on work experience. Unbelievably nice.

But if money was no object, I wouldn't live in London.

or marylebone

and I quite like some parts of Dalston

Near the Barbican would be good. The South Bank would be great, 'cept would be weird popping out for milk etc

But I'd actually really like to move to one of those huge tenement houses in Glasgow.

wasn't in london, thanks ;)

That's the dream.

NELSON'S COLUMN

one of the residential towers in the barbican!

Nice buildings, near the river, near the West End, South Ken, near Victoria and Waterloo, no plebs.

Instead I will spend quite a lot of time there and pretend I live there.

or those really posh houses in Angel/Barnsbury type area. Mmm, North London.

Clearly one of those six-storey townhouse jobs in Mayfair.

or, one of the houseboats on the river down at Hammersmith/Chiswick. They're actually my dream homes. I pass them pretty often and when it's sunny and warm everyone's out on their roofs and whatnot having bbqs or a drink with their houseboat neighbors and generally having this idyllic life.

probably pretty damp, though.
