1) I am looking the correct way when crossing the street. Does that make me a Londoner? And I don't mean in the touristy areas where large signs are printed on the pavement saying "look right," "look left." Then again, I gave my yank roots away. Pavement means sidewalk in the UK.
2) Not exclusive to London, but it's great to be complimented on one's shoes. Especially when said shoes are six years old. Long live good shoe purchases.
Cute interaction for the day: A mother walking down the street quietly says, "I like those boots."
The little girl riding her bike beside her mother says, "My mum likes your boots."
Thank you mother and child, you're very sweet. It's the small things. Sometimes.
Also, are London cafes required to have public loos? This one doesn't.
Not to self: re-research the origin of the word loo. I know it has to do with Waterloo but I don't remember anything else.
Cheers.
