    4/5
  • 14. What was the Nightlife like in the area you worked?

    • It's London... there is always somewhere to go, whenever you want to do something.

    5/5
  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

    • Football team for the lads, and as it's London you can pretty much do what you want if you arrange it yourself.
