You've lived in London too long when ...
|
| |
- You don't even bother looking out of the window when you get up in the morning to check what the day is like. You know it is overcast.
- Wearing a suit in a pub is relatively normal attire.
- You can't remember what 'customer service' means.
- After a big night out you find yourself looking for a Curry house, and not a 24 hour McDonalds.
- You start to accept queuing as a way of life.
- More than three hours sunlight on summer days seems excessive.
- You always call soccer 'football' ... and you have a team...and it's not Manchester United.
- You don't think twice about buying a packaged sandwich.
- A sunny lunchtime means searching for a patch of grass and stripping off practically down to your underwear.
- You accept (albeit reluctantly) that men who cut, comb and style their hair using hair products are not necessarily gay.
- You think 20 quid for a haircut is quite reasonable.
- You finish every sentence with 'Cheers' and/or 'Yeah?'.
- You only just realise you have lost your sunglasses – you left them in Greece 2 summers ago.
- You start thinking English cuisine isn't all that bad after all, I mean, it's hard to beat a full English breakfast.
- You are on to your 6th umbrella and your second overcoat.
- You buy a disposable baby BBQ from Argos.
- You realise your sunscreen is the stuff you originally brought from home with you.
- A day at the beach means wearing the warmest clothes you own while standing on golf ball-size pebbles and the thought of swimming doesn't even enter your head.
- You actually say, "Sor'ed", "It's all gone a bit pear shaped" or "A'right?".
- You believe that Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday are all good nights for drinking. Sunday day is also entirely reasonable.
- You have given up explaining why you are half an hour late to work as no-one notices or cares.
- Coming to work with a hangover is entirely accepted and indeed expected at least once a week.
- You think twice about giving up your seat on the tube to a pregnant woman or elderly person.
