@B&B - ..okay, darling. -hug- are you alright? You do sound.. un peu frappé..
On that subject - it's fun getting tipsy and dancing and stuff, but it doesn't mean that it's all we do. Last Saturday evening I walked with a friend from Tottenham Court Road (where we are) down through Covent Garden and the Strand all the way to the Thames and back - several miles, through some of the nicest areas, & we stopped to listen to buskers and chat on benches and admire the lights and direct lost Americans.. this walk lasted from about 10pm to 2am~ and not once did I feel the need to detour into a bar or threatened or that somehow London was a dangerous place. Honestly - don't listen to the media, darling, you know that. Our country isn't as bad as all that. (:
@'elfy - I'm not really trying to compare.. like I said, it's more that if you attack London, I have to defend it, because I love it here so damn much. & really, I don't feel that I'm overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of anything - it's more that.. it's all so wonderful together, the huge things and the small.
