Here and There in London

Nothing extraordinary here today, just a few shots of random London.


It was fun to gain an expertise taking the Underground. You will read about how polite Londoners are on the Tube, but be careful around rush hour, because people will often not move down into the train, or push to get onto an already-full car. Count on it, in fact. Glad I experienced it, but I wonder what it would have been like to have acquired a bicycle for the summer.


I got really excited when I saw Harvey Wallbanger in a Can in a convenience store. I mean, here's my favorite drink, and it's in a can, so perfect, right?

It was rancid. Avoid it at all costs.



Saw this silver cow creamer in Mayfair. 100 pounds. I sneered at it, a la Jeeves and Wooster.



Finally, a McLaren was on sale in Kensington for only 192,000 pounds. Can you take a test drive? No. Can you enter the showroom and get a closer look? Not without an appointment. The Ferrari shop across the street was the same.

Sometimes in life you just can't catch a break.
