Dirty, bad mannered, unhygienic

This, I believe, is an official notice put up by the Council. I took some photos in London on my most recent visit. They’re here.

    That’s terrific, Lucy. Except for the tidy typography, it’s like something a crazy person would plaster on a pole.

    Oh I think it’s terribly English. “And by law can be fined”. So polite, even when clearly flustered.

    Oh, and thank you for Waterloo Sunset.

    But yes, I think it is something a crazy person plastered on a pole. A crazy peopled council.

    It stopped me in my tracks, on my last evening. There was quite a bit of wind so it kept changing every second. Thrilling. I love London. So much.

    It is a wonderful location. Waterloo Station, I mean.

    London, too.

    Oh Waterloo and the South Bank and the area around the Old Vic, that’s all my favourite part of London. The pictures of the tunnels are actually enormous Victorian tunnels under Waterloo station, recently turned into a fantastic theatre and bar space.

    I remember finding the tunnels quite spectacular.

    So polite, even when clearly flustered.

    Flusterclocked?

    I think you’ve got it, Rick.
