1. Having to run for a bus
2. Getting stuck in the barriers at the station
3. Tapping your oyster and seeing “Seek Assistance”
4. Tripping over anywhere in public
5. Getting off of a train and turning the wrong way for the exit
6. Walking down an escalator and thinking who’d catch you if you tumbled down
7. Or thinking that your shoelaces could get trapped and you’ll never make it off alive
8. Pressing the ‘stop’ button on the bus only for your driver to wizz past your stop

9. Pret being closed on the way in to work
10. Those confident London pigeons coming far too close …
11. … And ruining your outfit by strategically poo-ing all over you
12. Getting stuck behind a group of slow walkers
13. Or worse: getting stuck behind a group of selfie-taking tourists
14. Noticing that your favourite takeaway only scores a 3 out of 5 on its health rating
15. Seeing someone you kinda (not really) know on public transport and having the entire carriage listen in on your awkward conversation
16. Anyone making eye contact with you on said public transport
17. Going to one of those restaurants with long, open tables
18. Because that means strangers could be sitting with you … erm no.
19. Running out of data and having to say goodbye to your bus app, Uber and social media on the go
20. Aggressive newspaper people shoving the Evening Standard at your chest
21. Then refusing it and wondering what all these strangers must think of you
22. TfL strikes. Need we say more?
23. Those spontaneous after-work drinks plans that pop up a few days before pay day
24. Maybe just those few days before pay day, in general. Hello baked beans my old friend.
25. That dreaded rent increase letter from your landlord
26. When you honestly have no change to give the homeless person on your carriage
27. Or god forbid, fall out of love with our wonderful city.
