We just don't get it...

Things we like, dislike and those that confuse us in the UK...

• You typically go through two doors before getting to the bathroom.
• England is very good about reducing its carbon footprint, but the hand blow dryers are as powerful as the jet engine of an airplane. Seriously, you worry about sacrificing a hand to the blow dryer gods.
• Public toilets. Some cost money, some don't.
• Seedy Internet cafes... You KNOW it's not a secure connection.
• The British aren't as smart on smart phones. They rarely use their phones.
• Question: Which side of the street do I walk on? Which side of the stairs?
• There is little to no water pressure in the toilets.
• LACK OF DIET PEPSI AND PEPSI PRODUCTS... Enough said.
• Coke dominates in the UK, but it all comes in glass bottles.
• Ketchup packets are nearly impossible to open.
• Brown sauce? It's like BBQ sauce? Just not sure...
• The women wear really tight pants (leggings, skinny jeans, etc.).
• Bikes are apparently a popular method of transportation.
• Which way do I look before crossing the street? Right or left? Pick one!?!?!
• Tennis shoes are called trainers.
• French fries are called chips.
• The beer is far more potent and served warm.
• The pubs play a lot of 80s music - SCORE!!!
• The police and other rescue workers wear neon yellow and drive neon yellow vehicles. Can't miss em.
• Even London has a China town.
• Trash cans are very hard to find, yet the ground is litter-free?
• There are public telephones everywhere. Maybe that's why Brits never use their smart phones...?
• They withhold wi-fi from Americans.
• You can find porn next to kids' DVDs... Whips and chains were next to "Chicken Run"!?!?
• There are cameras everywhere. England is very Big Brother. You feel safe, but also feel like you're always being watched... Because you ARE.
• The British actually use their coins to buy things. And, there are a lot of them. Paper notes are not as common.
