100 London things: 25
Okay, I know I've already done The Knowledge, but there was a lovely article in today's Guardian G2 about that and the trad black cab etc by a newly-fledged cabby.

And on transportation, may I beseech my dr rdrs not to emulate the terribly poor ton I encountered on Saturday.
Yes, I have pointed out that the premium seat on a doubledecker bus is top front left hand.
However, should someone already be sitting in it, and if there are other empty seats to the behindwards, you do NOT plonk yourself and your paraphernalia down next to them.
The only excuse is - possibly - if you are part of a group and the others are sitting on the top front righthand seat.
But this did not appear to be the case with the person who committed this gross breach of London Transport etiquette last Saturday.
O tempora! O mores!
Brought to you by the typically London experience of being outraged at people doing Awful Things on public transport in contravention of the understood unspoken RULEZ. It's A Thing, like queue shock horror.
