We often get grumpy when we cant move down the escalators because the tourists just don't follow the rules. We shout in our minds"Why cant they keep to the right on the escalators" as we rush rush rush. It seems we have forgotten how exciting it is to see the sparkly lights, go into shops that we don't usually frequent or just to bathe in the sites and structure. In a nut shell, we sometimes become complacent.
This week my cousin from Wales traveled all the way to London to enjoy a spot of quality time with her mother and to delve into some Sex in the city shoes for her wedding. As I watch them enjoy their day, I was reminded how wonderful the city is. To revive our kindred spirits, I have concocted a list of pure pleasures around our city for us to indulge in
