Jezston said:I was born and raised in London, although left a few years back for the joy of a smaller town with one of those handy compact 'town center' things. I cannot for the life of me understand why people insist on driving in central london. Delivery drivers etc I can understand, but if you are just trying to get from A to B it's so congested and public transport is so good (YES IT IS!) I just don't get it.
Probably why I never learned to drive. Turned 31 a few weeks back and have never got further than getting a form for a provisional license. If I want to take a car for a spin I've got Gran Turismo 5

Jezston said:I like the tube, even in rush hour - I found the daily crush somewhat invigorating!
Only thing that always pisses me off is the guy running late who just HAS to get on, diving in and crushing the already crushed passengers, then holding up the train when the doors won't close, when he could have just waited ONE MINUTE for the next one. And people who get on before everyone has got off. And people who sneak round the back of lift entrances so they can get on the lift first and ... hmm maybe I don't love the tube so much!
