I was in London earlier this week and it was manic. Everyone rushing around, tubes packed, people rushing down escalators when the tubes are 2 mins apart. Road noise, Sirens everywhere, People getting trains home at 7.30pm to commute an hour, people stood up on this train. As someone who only visits now and again on business it left me shattered and I was only there a day!
Is this just something you get used to in London? Is late working the norm? Travelling for what seems like hours either way to do a job?
It did feel alive though! Is this part of the attraction or is it a case of being born there and knowing nothing else?
I was glad to get back up North where the pace of life is so much less frenetic. We do have to put up with the awful weather though! It was definitely warmer in London 😂
