Walking in London last year I had so many free newspapers like that
shoved at us that if was possible to carry them home you could have
free heat for the evening in a fireplace.

That depends what use you make of them. For fish and chips they have to be

Londoners cannot do two things.

1. Server proper fish and chips
2. Pull pint of beer.

You need to come out to the country, such as Suffolk or Norfolk. Where
the fish is landed, and the beer is brewed.

Amazingly well. Strangers walking past often ask how he is, ask if he needs

And if he is asleep then it is not uncommon to see people passing by just

In my usual surroundings there are fewer visible homeless people (there is
still the hidden homeless problem), less parking tickets, and there is still
a reasonable chance of getting someone to pull a pint of beer without
****ing it up.

Fullers might be the only large brewery still in London, since Youngs
closed the Wandsworth site, but there's plenty of good small brewers, too.

****. You *really* are that widely known?

1. Server proper fish and chips

It's bloody hard to find them fried in dripping in London. You could
try Fryer's Delight at 19 Theobald's Road, WC1X 8SL. Depending where
you are in Oxford Street it's a hop on the Central Line to Holborn or a
55 bus. A bit variable though in my experience.

And while I don't think they cook in dripping, there's Masters at 191
Waterloo Road which used to be easy to spot 'cos of the number of black
cabs parked up while the cabbies refueled. Does mean going sarf ov the
river tho

1. Server proper fish and chips
2. Pull pint of beer.

3. Speak English correctly.
4. Offer directions.

There is a good chance that anybody you ask for directions in central
London is a stranger there themselves.

I once called into a taxi office and asked the nice Asian man to point me
in
the right direction for Hackney. He had absolutely no idea.
Turns out I was 4 miles away.
Pathetic.
I once pulled up at a bus stop to ask directions. Every single person
turned
their back on me.

They probably couldn't understand your northern accent. Or speech
impediment as we call it.

They were all black and turned away from me before I opened my mouth.
Did you know that the southern accent is known as the worst in the world?
