Also bon, when you go to the train station, tell them you want an oyster cqard, the fares will be alot cheaper if you use it, it works like a mobile phone top up card, you put credit on it and the train fares are half price.

Yeah an oyster card for london buses and tubes is a great idea. Great foir being able to hop on and off buses and just try out the tube when you want without the hassle of buying tickets. Best to keep it a bit extra topped up so it don't run out when you need it.

just wondering if you also stay yourself away from those places, or is it solely for the newcomers like me.
anyway its wonderful here at night !
You won't see many Oriental people (please note, in the UK we don't call you Asians, over here, Pakistanis and Indians and Bangladeshis are called Asians) in those areas walking at night, so if someone figures out you're a foreign student, they might try and target you. Therefore, play it safe.

I think everyone here is over reacting over the safety issues. It really isn't that bad. I mean if leafy Willesden and Kilburn are dangerous, I dread to think what you lot think of Hackney, Brixton, etc... and even them are probably ok vast majority of the time. Sure enough if you stumble upon a gang of "urban" youths alone at night and they find out that you're a foreign tourist it might not be your night but that could happen in any city in the world. Dare I say London may be one of the safest major cities in the world.

I reckon get Bon down to the Bush courtesy of Vespas rattler for a game, get him into Stuarts to acquire some urban attire hand picked by Facto followed by a couple in the white horse via the bookies (Weare can provide free tips), off to the game and then a pub crawl around the bush (including an audience with Isle) and a quick cab to ealing broadway for some clubbing courtesy of lones and van and then drop him off at Heathrow for a night flight to Vegas with Matty.
