Anyone who has lived in London for any length of time will have kicked themselves at some point for their failure to recognise the next big thing.
Neglected to focus on the fact that East London was getting hipper and more arty by the minute, back when it was still possible to buy a whole house in Hackney for less than £400,000? Noticed how many new cafes and bars were opening in Peckham but never got around to doing anything about it?
