As expensive as it is, I feel homesick out of London. Lol.

London is unique - I won't trade it for anywhere else...

peckham would be the equivalent of ikoyi/obalende in lagos. i am not even sure the people that cause nuisance there actually stay there - they just own naija shops in the area.

A lot of Nigerians living there are living below the minimum wage. You'll find most of them in Peckham, selling ata rodo && weaves. lipsrsealed lipsrsealed
.

Well of course you won't see the Nigerian surgeons in theatres, nurses, civil servants or IT whizkids tucked away in the city of London, would you?

So you see only roadside sellers.

Oh I very much like it that I can buy African stuff from them, we've got to rep everywhere.

They have something like that in Nigeria i think, well i read about it on NL.

I still think it's insane to be charged for turning on the TV after paying your electric and cable bills. Do you have to pay if you're only watching local channels as well?

the TV license funds BBC.
BBC unlike most channels don't do commercials - it's an attractive feature though! you can never see a commercial ad on BBC so they take money from the viewers to fund the TV station. all TV owners must pay this license - even black-n-white TVs(their fee is less though).

You can watch tv without a tv license, but don't let them come knocking on your door.... You will get fined and risk going to prison.




Now I know where these road transport workers aka agberos learnt about harassing drivers for radio licenses in naija. grin grin grin

I heard that the tv License fee funds the BBC. How true is that?

Very true hence BBC channels don't need or have adverts.

Whats a TV license?
What of if you dont have a TV and stream using your Computer?

Its the licence you need to legally watch Tv in the UK. It costs approx £12 per month into perpetuity until you reach age 75 when you get a full discount. Failure to pay could lead to a £1000 fine or imprisonment and they pursue every address relentlessly until they are sure it is empty.

If you claim you don't have a Tv, you have to prove it to their staff who knock your door unannounced and at odd hours.

Even if you watch programmes with your computer, you still have to pay as long as you watch live programs as they are being broadcast.
