If you just think of an airplane as being a bus in the sky. Can't see what the fuss is against budget airlines - they take you from A to B (although you may have to do some actual homework YOURSELF as to where 'B' actually is!).

There are some great pubs, it's quiet, near the river and easy to get around. I spent about 7 years in various of bits of North London, it's alright too but not so good for your commute - also the nice bits are quite likely to cost *more* than Wapping.
