    Cool Things an American learned in England

    Scott Waters is an American tourist who has enjoyed several trips to England.
    Here are a few of his observations about life in England:


    The pubs close to early


    Everything is generally older, smaller and shorter


    The English are as crazy about their gardens as Americans are about cars


    Everything comes with chips, which are French fries. You put vinegar on them


    Look right, walk left. Again look right walk left. You’re welcome.


    They can boil anything


    There are too many narrow stairs


    You’re better like peas, potatoes and sausage


    Avoid British wine and French beer


    Their coffee is mediocre but their tea is wonderful

    When I was in London, I was constantly looking right and stepping off the curb, my English friend saved me several times by jerking me back onto the curb just before a vehicle zoomed by....the high point of the trip was a visit to the original Hard Rock Cafe :-) I collect their menus...I have : DCA, CUN, HNL, LHR, EYW, MCO, ...I've been to many more but sometimes it is difficult to "collect" one.....

    ...and the departure taxes are the most expensive in Europe. Maybe the world?? Especially if sitting up front.
