London warning signs overload
March 6th, 2008 Lynn
Isn’t Britain just the most sign-mad country you have ever seen? Every day, us Londoners get bombarded by so many messages, announcements and warnings, that you would think just stepping outside your house is a life-threathening business. Mind the step. Look left. Look right. Look both ways. Thanks London, I’ll be at my most careful indeed.
Then you get to the station, and it just continues: alert a member of staff if you see unattended items. Smoking is not permitted. Mind the gap. Stand clear of the closing doors. And whatever you do, do not encourage beggars by giving them money.
Sometimes I just feel like I am 9 years old again, running out of the door with my mum crying out: do up your coat! Wear a scarf! Don’t talk to strangers!
So many thanks London for looking after me like a big mother hen, but I am fine thanks. At 28, I might just be able to get myself safely though the day!
