A Quick Rant

Where are my stories about London? And all the wonderful photos? Shouldn't my blog post look something like this?!

Yeah, it's awesome.

Damn fucking straight it should! But for some reason, I seem to be unable to walk in to a hostel/internet cafe that will let me plug in my cameras sdhc card, copy the images, resize, save and upload them. Even as I type, blogger tries to save my blog every 5 seconds, (edit, third time I'm re-typing this) resulting in the computer locking up, nothing happens, then all the text spews forth, filled with gramatical and spelling errorrorrs. Great !

So instead of updating everyone with the awesome time I'm having, the many stories I have accumulated in two days in London will have to wait. Instead I'd like to share a few, er, observations I've made.

Yeah, I'm awesome.

I'm awesome, everyone else is not. - That's right I'm the sort of traveller that sits there chuckling as someone pushes and pulls on the hostel door unable to see the 'push to open' button just to there right. I don't stand around in a big group blocking the ticket machines at tube stations, oh no, I walk right in, cause I have an oyster card. London is easy, so easy that people ask me for directions. I look at the same map they have, what's the deal, can't they read a map? I don't mind, it's good karma.

Germans are (almost always) loud, obnoxious, annoying travellers. It's true! They push in front of me, sit all over the stairs at the hostel, and they're really noisy. I was going to write 'in fact, most tourists are retards', but I think it's just a phenomena where the most retarded tourists really stand out. Like that loud American lady who at the changing of the guard, outside Buckingham Palace, started yelling "Look! Look! The new guard is coming! The new guard is coming!" Oh really lady?! Where?

Also awesome.

Pret A Manger, what does it mean? I don't know, I don't want to know. What do I know? It's fucking awesome! They're on like every corner, they're cheap, tasty, healthy, organic, fair-trade, carbon neutral, food and coffee. Maybe some of that isn't true. I know I haven't told my London stories yet. Consider this a sneak peak. Consider it like a gear review. A recommendation of sorts. If you're in London, pop in.

That's it for now. Just quietly it's my last night in London and I plan to consume many pints. Tomorrow Athens, the following day Kalymnos. 

Stay tuned, London's been good and I'll share some of my stories soon...
