My favorite things (the latest list)

My first few days living in London has made me appreciate these new amenities in my life:

  • Kings Cross tube station.  It’s uber clean and bright.
  • Lastfm.com.  Pandora, when are you coming to England?
  • Radiators.  They warm my bath towels.
  • Cloth grocery bags.  They’re environmentally friendly AND hold more weight without breaking, which is important now that I have to carry whatever I purchase to my flat.
  • Writing dates DD/MM/YYYY.   It just makes more sense.
  • The frequent use of the word “lovely.”
  • Not being charged for in-coming calls to my cell phone.
  • Free museums.
  • One and two dollar coins (although I hate that the British have a coin not only for one pence, but also for two pence)

It’s the little things, right?


Lovely my dear!!! Miss you!!

Awwww, Maggie! I miss you too. You would love it here. It’s road bike friendly too. Although I’m scared to try because I’m afraid I can’t get down riding on the left side.
