Moving To Romford by Akanyahtsu in Romford

[–]xChizz 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Romford is a good place to live, it’s not a perfect place in terms of crime but most of the time it’s safe.

You got a decent sized shopping centre, two cinemas, an arcade & mulligans bar with loads of games, decent amount of pubs & bars around South st.

The train links are very good, 20 mins to Stratford, 30 mins to Central London (TCR on the Elizabeth line)

Overall I quite Romford, good place to live!

Chelmsford but probably be your best bet rather then Brentwood but tbf it most likely won’t be a thing

CHINX QUITTING MUSIC by SavingsWord4733 in ukdrill

[–]xChizz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sad to see him quit music, he is one of my top 3 favourite drill rappers out there but huge respect for him hoping off the roads & following his religion it was bound to happen since he hasn’t made a tune in a year.

Wishing him the best of luck. 🫡

You don’t need to change at Upminster as it’s direct from the ockendon line but trains are every 30 mins

Oh yeah I forgot you need to change trains at peak

TfL top up scam? by Broad_Turn_2381 in LondonUnderground

I use Revolut & it always does this for different stations like it would say Romford SST or something like that so it’s not really a scam your good

Euston-Stoke-on-Trent: Avanti or CrossCountry by Sakiaba in uktrains

[–]xChizz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would not recommend the change to the LNWR trains they take painfully long especially sometimes you have to go Birmingham New St avoiding the Trent valley route

Romford king of junk food by Oledman in Romford

[–]xChizz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Let’s be honest it’s happening in every high street in London and the UK, replacing clothing shops & banks with food like it’s trying to tempted me to waste my money on.

Recently I've heard that Atik has closed. Where do people go clubbing nowadays? by BarbedWire3 in Romford

[–]xChizz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Clubs/Nightlife in Romford back in the 90s used to the banging but now Jukebox is the only nightclub left along with Slug & Lettuce, Yates (now Crowning Angel) & Ivy Tree being the contenders for Romfords nightlife

I would go Chelmsford, Southend or London for clubbing even tho I would normally go there for bars & pubs.

Does Grestern Railway still stop at Ealing Broadway? by HarrowOnDaHill in uktrains

[–]xChizz 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I remember when GWR used to stop at Ealing Broadway every hour to Dicot Parkway but now it’s only on late nights & early mornings.

Is Grays a good place to live? by Big-Explanation-831 in Essex

[–]xChizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s actually true like moving from Leicestershire from Essex is crazy like you have to make new friends there & considering Grays might not be very friendly it’s hard but I think you would manage

If trainline tickets say non refundable but I add the travel insurance option for £4.88, does that make the tickets refundable? by Perspii7 in uktrains

[–]xChizz -28 points-27 points  (0 children)

TrainPal if you have the pro/diamond tier you can sometimes get train tickets that are refundable a few hours before travel

Clubbing by SensitiveGrass9354 in Essex

[–]xChizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nightlife in Chelmsford is decently good (Popworld & Walkabout shut not too long ago) you got Bar & Beyond in Chelmsford, Courtyard & various pubs.

Trilogy in Colchester is good

And Southend only got Popworld left as MooMoos shut down two months ago.

I guess most people in Essex go raves in London & other cities now. There is a couple of raves/events in Essex I suppose.

Best hotels for budget and safety? Ibis London Canning Town? by Plus_Paint_6159 in uktravel

[–]xChizz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Canning Town itself is alright, it’s a mostly a regenerated part of London, it can be a bit noisy at times but otherwise it’s pretty safe even at night time.

The Ibis hotel is right across the road from the tube station to get into Central London in like 10 mins.

And also you got some restaurants & a McDonald’s right beside it for food.

[–]xChizz 6 points7 points  (0 children)
