Oh.. it simply amazes me of how some people are..
For instance.. over here.. it seems a lot of the tourists are the rude ones.. We have actually found that the local people are pretty good about helping you out when they can. Oh not saying there aren't the rude one that live here.. but..
The sad thing is.. London well UK is a pretty dirty country. They don't seem to have waste cans.. which in some areas, I understand why they don't.. good place to hide bad things. And I guess it does still happen here. But if it is a wrapper or bottle (lots of bottles and cans) it usually goes on the ground. sandwich wrappers.. ground.. anyway you get the idea.. but the history is phenomenal over here.. every where you look.. and it isn't like 200 hundred years old.. it is like 2000 years old.. really awesome!
Another thing.. why cover your mouth when you cough or sneeze?? I think ya ought to just let it fly.. and you wonder why so many are sick here.. they said Swine flu is on the rise. hmm ya think.. wonder why. Anyway that is a pet peeve for me.. It isn't hard to cover your mouth.. ughhhhhh
The big trend seems to be for women.. black leggings with either just a large shirt over it or a dress short SHORT skirt, or shorts.. and heels.. the women here like their heels.. higher the better.. Which has to be hard to walk in over here.. a lot of the roads are cobble stone. Then the jeans.. majority are stovepipe jeans.. tight.. TIGHT jeans.. low tops.. tight low tops.. a single mans dream.. or one who likes to look.. hehehe
OH.. I almost forgot the TV.. even with cable unless it is the major premium channel.. is pooh! Unless you want to watch the News channel or the Adult channel.. the rest sucks.. no pun intended.
People watching is pretty fun.. there is no holding anything back here.. and everything goes. You see a lot of gay/lesbian people.. a lot of tattooed, spiked unusual costumes... Like I said great place to watch people.. especially at Trafalgar Square.. AND WHY I ask you do they call Trafalgar Square, SQUARE.. when it centers around a round about. There are a lot of SQUARES around here.. but majority are actually in the center of a round about.
We found this awesome little place next to the hotel.. PIZZA EXPRESS.. hehehe it is like a Pizza hut with flowers and wine glasses.. and they seat you.. but good food.. but.. fantastic deserts.. oh we had to go just for the desert.. chocolate fudge cake with super thick cream.. oh my butt is gonna be so big.. and I worried about Jaxters butt! Mel says the Teramiso (sp) was fantastic also.. but ... mine was lots better.. I just know it!
They have TONS of cooking shows over here.. and we laugh our backsides off.. cause majority of food is bland and ugh.. We asked a few people on the tour yesterday.. what they thought of the food.. Kevin from New Orleans said he was going to bring a spice cabinet with him next time.. and Kris and Eric from Perth Australia said the food is nasty over here.. and would be glad to get back to good food.. and Kris grew up in Northern Wales.. she said her mum was a good cook though...
Lots of people here take lunches to the parks or eat on busses or walking.. they eat a lot of cucumber and cheese sandwiches.. No.. I haven't tried it..
Well guess I will do a little packin.. I always think of things I want to say.. forget where I write them down.. and then .. forget to stick it on here.
Night :) me

so do they have like street sweepers then? i mean with all the trash everywhere its a wonder you can even walk.... and i love to people watch! its so fun!
ReplyDeleteWell they do have street sweepers.. they are about the size of our volkswagon bus.. But they do have them. McDonalds for instance.. they have a person hired that goes a mile in each direction of the McDonalds.. and sweeps up the garbage. I think they do all garbage. But we think it is there would be an easy place to stick an explosive.. if they had garbage cans all over. There are a few.. but not very many.
