Morning-ish
I am doing support this week and thus have been jolly busy doing actual work and everything. I went to see some flats to buy last night, there's an awful lot of ex-Housing Association stuff about. And is Wapping really that big a deal? I might take a look at some in North London later. Wooo!

It's apparently a super-popular area or something

Dunno, maybe everyone's buying up there because crossrail will go through it eventually.

It's quite pleasant for E1 and is walking distance to the City.

There's a decent wineshop near there
Uncorked. I got a nice bottle of red Zinfandel from there.

I really like Wapping.
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.

battersea will be the place where prices rise a lot
once they decide what to do with the power station and they extend the northern line so it's FINALLY on the tube. prices there will go through the roof.
