So says Banksy, and I agree...
I still don't really 'get' London. I figure it's a love it or hate it kinda place, and I've got friends who are constantly telling me I should move there. Er... No. Thanks. Pretty much like it where I am. Edinburgh might not be the friendliest place in the world, but....
Still, there were nice bits of the recent visit.
Cycling in London for the first time was an experience, and with most of the media based down there I can see where the hatred of cyclists can come from! Mind you, the cars aren't much better and pass really close a lot more often. motorcyclists also pass closer than anywhere else I've ridden. Most frustrating was having to stop so often to check the map - I'd get a rough bearing, ride off for a couple of miles, stop and get another bearing, repeat ad nauseum.
Noisy, busy, expensive, rude. Once a year is quite enough for me (it's saved by there being some lovely people there that I know and want to see - though there will be more invites to come up here!).
Aye right...
