Moved here from Darlington, Co. Durham in late 2009, best thing I ever did.

I knew the area beforehand as I had to come through FH to get to a work premises just past the Horniman. Fell in love with the place. As I was in a mobile job I took the chance to move down.

The only issue I have is that I doubt I'll be able to buy a property in London for some time - but that's not just a Forest Hill issue. Living here is worth it - I'm happy to rent for the foreseeable.
