“London I Love You, But You’re Bringing Me Down”
It’s funny, normally I have really strong feelings about London when I’m arriving, whether it’s love or hatred. “London I Love You, But You’re Bringing Me Down” (mp3) is a good summation of my feelings. Unusually, I didn’t feel much either way this time when I landed. However, once I had dropped off my huge suitcase at the luggage storage at Waterloo Station crossed the Thames and was making my way up the Aldwych a smile came to my face and a bounce to my step as I started to see places I had passed every day a year ago. I was home! After some much needed downtime at the LSE library dicking around on the internet (where I wrote the previous post), I met my friends Julie and Edd for a few pints. It’s like and suddenly London doesn’t bad at all.

Can fully relate to your London feeling. For me it normally starts when I step into the Holborn Tube Station escalator
The point where it gets to be ridiculous is when I pass George and see Bob Hancke with couple of girls from his class drinking that same Hoegaarden 
Have fun bro!

Haha, Ville, you’re so right. I did see Bob drinking with the usual crowd when I went to the library to work.
