With pollution so high, we will probably all die out soon… so let’s remember the good times while we still can…
1. You have never had any desire to feed the pigeons

2. Accepting any freebie people hand you. (Even if it’s dog food…and you don’t have a dog).
3. You have a wonderful childhood memory of ‘Snow Day’
Please don’t panic re potential snow disruption

4. When taking a cab used to feel like you were royalty
5. You used to ring the bell on the bus five times when your mum wasn’t watching
6. You haven’t seen the sun for years
7. The grass is always greener your side of the river
8. Going to the library as a child was an outing… to read
9. When that London Underground song became the new London anthem for a month
10. Not being able to sleep unless you can hear a bus…
11. Or a fire engine/ambulance/drunk people
12. Living in the certainty that there will always be some way of getting food delivered to your door at any time
13. Having at least one memory of falling down an escalator
14. Constantly waiting for summer. Even in July.
15. ‘No entry’ signs on the Tube no longer mean anything to you
16. Getting secret satisfaction when giving directions to tourists
17. Yeah, you know where the Queen’s house is
18. Big Ben is your second heartbeat
19. You are extremely concerned about Big Ben going quiet for repairs
20. That time everyone had a Cath Kidston bag
21. That time you got a Cath Kidston bag even though you hate floral patterns
22. Refusing to buy a new £20 umbrella even though yours now has two broken spines
23. Going into M&S just to use the loo
24. Every time you get on the Tube you think you might die
25. Going to Richmond Park is like a trip to the countryside
26. Tube Strikes mean that sometimes you just can’t leave your house
LONDON IS CLOSED MATE

27. Or in worse cases… get home
28. Oxford Circus… just not worth it
29. January sales… purr-lease
30. Confused memories of how the fuck you got anywhere without Google Maps
31. Harrods Food Hall Samples to get you through a long afternoon
32. Child Oyster Cards were life
33. You are haunted by the dark days of no WiFi on the Tube
34. Your local newsagents have just ignored the fact that you now use real ID
35. And you have done the same
36. Knowing that at least once someone has fallen asleep on you on public transport
This guy is FABULOUS. The socks, the tie, the preferred pose to sleep in on a tube. £10 says his name is Miles #Miles pic.twitter.com/U7qdatLmNJ

37. Having the ability to completely ignore any kind of fancy dress/face paint/piercings
38. Because you are a Londoner
39. And you just don’t give a shit
