things that kinda suck about the UK (only read if you're NOT from there;)

i never thought i'd say it.... but SOME of the people are a little bit miserable.  misery looks handsome on Morrissey but some people cannot pull it off quite so eloquently ;)  they cough too much (like WAAAAY too much and seem to actually enjoy it) and don't smile nearly enough and don't have very good manners. it's not nearly as charming and lovely as New England.  there i said it: i'm soooo going to Old English hell :) 

also know as.....

strictly come dancing.  omg kill me now.  and use a blunt rusty shiv because it would hurt far less than watching strictly come dancing.

paying 30 pence to go to a gross, stinky, cold, public toilet that doesn't even have hands-free towel dispensers. 

paying for shopping bags and the fact that the cashiers don't pack the groceries and wheel them to your car for you and put them in the car while making small talk and then take away the cart and wave as you drive away

oh yeah: and PAYING for a shopping cart!  i don't care if i get it back when i return the cart: free is the only way to live

having to add 2 to your dress size (this is soooooo cruel)

no drink refills and no ice (a.total.deal.breaker.)


those absolutely hideous ugly ridiculous onesies that functioning members of society were actually wearing. in public.  i don't care how cold it is.... it could NEVER EVER be that cold!!!

rain.  it rains everyday.  without fail.  and i love the rain!  but sometimes it just needs to go away and come again another day, but not EVERY SINGLE DAY!

24 hour shopping* (*the asterisk means not really 24 hours, we just like to pretend that's the case but we're actually only open 6 hours on Sundays(??!)

vandalism and gangs of bored teenagers and petty crime

being way too cold outside and then way too hot inside stores (still.  after all these years... they didn't fix this?!)

back with pics of things that didn't suck at all (there are lots of lovely things that didn't!)
