The Greenwich Phantom
- Location: Greenwich : London : United Kingdom
About Me
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.
Interests
- As a Greenwich Resident
- it's in my interests to get good services and excellent shops and facilities for everyone. That's why I've decided to stay anonymous. I'm starting small here - but just think - if this blog got a bit better known
- it might just start to make a difference - and if no one knows who The Greenwich Phantom is
- businesses and services might just start to treat everyone as if they are a potential reviewer. So. Here's the deal. My part of the bargain: I will take on what the newspapers call "reviewing anoymously and paying for meals" and being as honest as I possibly can. Your part of the bargain: Don't ask who I am.
