I was born in East Sussex but brought up in Richmond Park, then lived all over London; East Dulwich, Blackheath, Hackney, Islington, Archway, Clapham, Wimbledon and Maida Vale. Plus a few years off studying in Norwich and France. We spent the last few months of my time in the UK in Whitstable. Lovely little town but a ####### every weekend for tourists!

Seconded. Slough, Datchet, Windsor - can't call any of that London.

Hey, I'm a proud former South Londoner, altho I was only in Battersea/Clapham, I suppose it depends on how far south... ;)

Yup, there is no disputing Battersea and Clapham are the heart of Sout London!!! :yes:
