One Vogue contributor shares their observations on the differences between Manhattan and London.
London office. In my short time here I have made the following observations and I can conclude that London is not Manhattan. Hopefully, this list will help any foreign visitors to London for LFW, and beyond!Everyone says sorry for everything; it’s often best to start any request or inquiry with “sorry . . .”
If you’re walking and you have something you maybe want to throw away at any point in the near future , you should toss it the second you see a bin because there won’t be another one, ever.If you look confused and/or scared when crossing the street, drivers will often speed up instead of the opposite.Christmas also starts on October 1 . . .There are no plugs in the bathrooms—unclear how British women blow-dry their hair .
Military time is very popular. If someone says to meet at 18:30, you will have to get out your calculator to deduce that they’d like to meet at 6:30 p.m.say “cheers” and tap glasses when drinking with friends. It’s apparently embarrassing and “American” to do so. They do, however, say “cheers” many times a day, but it means “thank you and goodbye.”Don’t try to order any fancy drinks at a pub, just play it cool, order “a pint” and drink whatever is in there.
If a bicyclist puts out their hand, they are indicating which way they’d like to turn; they do not want a high five. Do not get on the bus without your Oyster card. There is no backup option. The only backup option is: Get off ASAP.
