Poor and living in Bloomsbury

Short post, but I’ve noticed a trend here in London. Not a lot of people live in central london, and if you do, then you’ve got money. I’m living in Bloomsbury, a nice area in central London, about a ten minute walk from Soho, Covent Garden, Leicester Sqr and Picadilly Circus, which are some of the busiest areas of the city. So anyways, every time we go out and meet locals, and they ask us where we live, we casually say Bloomsbury, by Russell Square, and each time people are in shock. One person last night said: “What?! You guys are lying, no one lives there, it’s too expensive”, and we assured them that we weren’t lying, and then they said: “Really?!? Wow!” (while they judged us, as if they thought we were rich and spoiled). Anyways, its happen a couple of times now and decided to write about it so that you guys have a better understanding of where we are living and how great this area is. Lesson of the story? Not going to tell anyone I live in Bloomsbury anymore, don’t want to get in trouble with people because they think I have money or something.

Peace out; going to the dog races tonight. Which dog should I bet on?
