About Me
- Name: The Greenwich Phantom
- Location: Greenwich, London, United Kingdom
Greenwich is one of the coolest "uncool" places there is in London. It's not profoundly unfashionable - rather somewhere where it doesn't occur to people that there is anything more than a few museums, a nice park and the Cutty Sark. The really adventurous might know about the Trafalgar Tavern or venture out to Greenwich market on a Sunday afternoon, but essentially, Greenwich is still relatively undiscovered for one of the great regions of London. I adore Greenwich - but I'm not blind to its faults either. In this journal I take an affectionate but honest - at times brutally so - look, giving my own personal low-down on the things to do - and one or two of the things NOT to do in Greenwich. I am being unashamedly parochial here. I will talk about the tourist sites, of course - how could I not when we have a World Heritage Site on our doorstep - but also about the things which make our town great - the little things. Interesting vistas, cool shops, bizarre novelties and quirky one-offs which make this place buzz. Greetings, by the way, to all of you who have travelled with me from Livejournal - and thank you for making the journey.

Ermm, sorry if this is a stupid question (there's always gotta be one in the crowd), but what is the London Area WebRing? I clicked through to it thinking that it might have TGP-esque local blogs, and there doesn't seem to be anything there but ads?
It's all new. I don't really know quite what it is, but I signed up to it, like you, in the hope of finding lovely london blogs. May take a while to get going. We'll see. To be honest that code's just up there so their spiders can find my site. I have to have it up there and I was hoping no one would notice it before I could quietly remove it after the spiders had left the building...
