LONDON

[Lisa-Marie]

I would LOVE to move to London as i think thats where all the oppurtunitys are as i would really love to do modelling or tv presenting, something along those lines, im from Glasgow in Scotland and i feel i cant do anything here, anyone know differently?

What experience do you have? What qualifications or credentials? Remember you'll be up against fierce competition in London, so it's best to have an impressive portfolio first. As for modelling, send pics of yourself to London agencies. As for TV presenting, find out about media courses at college.

You need to have money to begin with and make sure you earn some too. My mate moved there from Glasgow last week to work at the BBC and got a flat for �720 a month! Its a ridiculous price and its not a very clean city.

streets paved with gold eh.....NOT, Londoner born and bred, never seen a proper opportunity round here yet. Best to have a plan that begins with where you are now, otherwise you'll never get started.

Can't believe you'd want to move to London from here! Glasgow is the best city in the world! (probably)

Mucko, do u mind me askin where your from? I dont see Glasgow as such a great place, my area had a lot of neds!

Would hardly recommend London as the land of opportunity. Try Leeds - 3rd largest city in UK, rent not as extortionate as London, price of living in general in fact is a lot cheaper, not sure about modelling opportunities but for TV work try Yorkshire Television which is based there.

Is this a joke? Am I missing something?
