Favourite London Blogs

Earlier this year (May 10th) the London Society held an informal Writing London event looking at London OnLine. As well as interesting and entertaining talks from brilliant London bloggers Dave Hill of On London, Katie Wignall of Look Up London, and Andrew Grumbridge and Vince Raison of the Deserter, many other bloggers in the audience shared their insights and experiences. As a result, we’d like to put together a list of great London blogs, as recommended by London Society members. To start you off, here are some that were mentioned at the event, but please do send us your own suggestions so we can share them with the rest of the London Society:
