I’m with expat Mum – i too have been stressed out about trying to get a quick lunch in central London. The ones that really got to me were the horades of students with their ginormous rucksacks, ambling along in a pack tighter than pam Anderson’s bras, staring up at the skies oblivious to the pile up of foot persons behind them!

This is why I avoid the subway in favo(u)r of walking I find a lot of New Yorkers seem to have their contemplative experience at the top/bottom of the escalator maximised to cause a 10person pile up

We part company here. I don’t like those who hit the horn a nanosecond after the light goes green. I’m fairly certain they are not heart surgeons for whom a brief delay will not mean the difference between life & death.

What about the ones who sit at a red light for what seems like an eternity when it’s already turned green! You can’t actually get round them. This requires me to dig deeply into my own inner well of spiritual peace. I admit, I’m not always successful!

But come on, they do that in London too. I used to work on Oxford Street and running out for a sandwich at lunch time took about three hours because of people gazing around them, seemingly rooted to the ground.

If there are such things as karma and reincarnation, people who stop dead in their tracks to use a cellphone at the top of subway entrance stairs, not two feet to the right or left, should be reincarnated as the pavement where they stand so they can be trod upon by other commuters for enternity.
