I love Willesden Green.

It's in zone 2 and has a great little park with a cool coffee shop. I know lots of my neighbours. It's sort of very civilsed. But what makes it brilliant is you can still see pissed blokes in the street at 11am and they haven't been clubbing. There are too many shit fast food shops for drunks and the munchies but also a posh Sainsbury's local and Japanese restaurant.

I just walked to the tube and saw two people talking to themselves, with actions, a massive fatty, fat-fat woman, two yooves smoking a spliff and someone calling a traffic warden a cunt! Home sweet home. It's never quite gentrified and that's what great.
