Post subject:  London - the best and worst
As there does seem to be a large number of users from London here I wanted to ask for opinions on favourite and least favourite sarging locations where you have come across desirable girls?

Leicester Square (seems to be regarded as THE best place) and likewise Covent Garden and Trafalgar Square are referenced lots. Oxford Street seems like a mixed bag really. Perhaps, yes, gaming inside Liberty's or any of the other big stores but not outside on the busy main street.

But other locations?

Camden - I have often enjoyed going here pre-PUA but I seem to be going off it. A large number of people you see round here especially at night don't exactly rate highly on my list! But still hasn't prevented me from some attempts at daygame here.
Portobello Road / Notting Hill - In some ways feels like a more upmarket version of Camden. Lots of young trendies live round here and work/shop here too. I don't see many references to this area in daygaming circles but it has great potential and at night too, IMHO.
The Strand - Of course round the corner from CG but this is an area with quite a large number of STUDENTS! Need I say any more? :wink:

Those seem to be my personal faves from recent experience that seem to be overlooked by others but what does everyone else think? Any other hidden gems?

Museums I am not too sure about but I see great potential in art galleries (National Gallery and Tate Modern and surrounding area especially). What about various market area? (Spitalfields, Brick Lane etc?) Or in London gentrification areas that have become popular with young trendies and recent uni graduates and other twentysomethings in the early stages of their careers (e.g. Islington, Clapham etc) or in the more residential and upmarket parts of town in Zones 2 and 3 of the Tube?

Anyone agree or disagree with any of this?

What makes you say that? I do the main strip from tottenham court road station west to selfridges (a great location) and then back, hitting topshop and stuff along the way. Hours of amusement!

I have spots open for next weekend if you're interested, check my sig ;-)

I find it TOO crowded, too many people bumping in to each other unlike anywhere else in LDN, and when you see someone worth sarging - suddenly she's out of sight!

hey fellow londoners!

I would agree with what you said about camden. Its full of wierd ppl, definitely a fun place for trying out some day game!

Leicester square/convent garden/traf sq are all good, but expensive drinks ofc.

ofc strand its full of students its close to lsb, kcl. I prefer bloomsbury tho, with ucl, soas, birbeck nearby.

I am sure youve tried shoreditch, brick lane right?

Cant think of anything else SPAM.

I haven't tried anywhere with an E postcode actually, so I was inquiring! From what I gather Shoreditch/Brick Lane seem to be increasingly popular as reesidences with the mid-late 20s crowd of relatively recent graduates new to the world of work as well as "artsy" types apparently. One of those places that used to be a real dead zone but starting to attract the young and trendy since 2000-ish.

Strand being full of students = heaven for me! Bloomsbury I agree is good too but I just seem to have had more positive and fulfilling experiences in the Strand. But yep what makes me happy is anywhere very cosmopolitan and international. I know London has lots of this and is a major world city but it's all about getting your locations right and knowing where is worthwhile and where you are wasting your time!

Camden has been fun for daygame but as soon as it starts getting dark, I suggest you get on the train and move elsewhere! The "weird people" to which you and I refer are not likely to attract me but you get loads of slightly more normal looking students and tourists worth sarging in the daytime especially by the Stables Market.

I work on Baker street and there arent many nice girls over there - im chatting about girls who work in coffee shops etc

Used to work in Liverpool street and EVERYDAY I got my coffee from Pret and would see the same girl EVERYDAY. This girl worked there. I met her etc.

If you do work you end up seeing the same girls on a daily basis, or near enough, and its usually easier to get some kind of rapport going on and then POUNCE.

It is interesting in the very busy stations to just try and make small talk with HBs in coffee stores, many a great opportunity is provided!

How could I forget, but King's Road in Chelsea (Sloane Square)? Great fun sarging there too!

Charring cross station at 5:30 on new years morning is not a good place to meet girls. Met a stripper there and she was pissed off at working all night.

Other times of day might be better though!

Re - Oxford Circus. I think it is much better to sarge in the summertime.

I am weighing up the pros and cons of sarging in a tube station, especially the bigger ones. You don't want to lurk around there for too long do you? :wink:

What's to weigh? You have to use the tube anyways, to get to anywhere else. Just sarge on the tube as you go about your day. Don't be slow, she's getting off next stop.
