We love London

Welcome to London, summer school students, and welcome to the LUP blog - a place where we share still more about the city, for those of you interested enough to subscribe, or visit regularly to read. Take a look back through the archives for almost a years worth of suggestions and recommendations, and if you have ideas for questions that you'd like us to post about, let us know!

As you may have gathered, all of us are really enthusiastic about London, but - why?

Cornelius O'Boyle - "I love London because ...'it is a modern Babylon'. (Benjamin Disraeli)"

Kris - "I love London because it's inspired so much art - books, paintings, music - everything!"

Ric - "I love London because even when fashions and tastes change, the Meridian makes it the centre of the world!"

Alice - "I love London for its juxtapositions, its energy, and most of all for all its possibilities"

Catherine - "I love London because in London, nothing is missing."
