yeah, it's not 100% safe, but bloody hell, it can hardly be classed as brixton...i've always feel safe here, whereas there's no way i'd walk in many places at night in the uk on my own...

Re: And you thought Dubai was safe...
sorry- let me add a '' wasn't actually seriously comparing it to Brixton- although Brixton isn't as bad as everyone makes out- although I don't know of anyone that has lived there and not been mugged/burgled/had phonr stolen in the street/ had their laptop pinched from them in the tube...
Lived for years in Stockwell (even worse than the gentrified Brixton) and never had much hassle... having said that you needed to be pretty street smart!
Though, the "mean streets" of Dubai will never ever be like London!

I've been offered drugs in Brixton. While out running.
Mind you, it was amazing how many types they could offer in the time it took me to jog past them...
