A Gangsta in China town

Despite the fact that I was born in the East End Of London and lived there for 20 years. I feel I may have turned into a country bumpkin.

I don't feel at home in London these days. It has changed so much since I've been living in sleepy Cornwall.

These days there seem to be two types of people here. There are the self absorbed, awkward, difficult and slow people and then there are self absorbed pushy rude and in a rush types.

Although I can see how the former spawn increasing numbers of the latter. I'm not sure I could ever live here again. I much prefer my slower, more rural Cornish existence. :)

I agree - I am hoping to move from the self absorbed, rude and pushy to the quieter, slower more community based lifestyle

You’ve captured it all in this, the vibrancy, the masses and many “attitudes” that make up the crowd.

Great street shot. Country life is for me any day.

Agree with all you say, I too was born close to the smoke.. Great picture though, reflects all your very well made comments.

Love this. Your two types: the first, blasted bimblers, probably also include those bimbling while on their phone, weaving about the road, or in self absorbed groups taking up the whole pavement...and the second, well this is a family site, so I can't say more - which one am I, I wonder? 🤣

Great shot capturing the bustling atmosphere
