I'll never forget walking to the bus stop and wondering what all the flowers piled up outside a pub was all about.

The best one was when I got home one day to notice my bike had been nicked from the stairwell (D-locked to a sturdy railing, they'd chipped the concrete step away to get the railing out. D'oh). The next morning, after the thieves realised how shit the bike was, it was returned to the stair.

I don't think that's a particularly London thing though? Seem to be plenty of cities in the UK with a bit of a gang problem. I dunno, maybe there is more of it proportionally to anywhere else, that's some big sums to do. I do live in relatively leafy 'n quiet Ealing though (albeit a bit of the riot happened here the other year too). I was more meaning things like people saying "and nobody ever helps anyone on the Tube!" which I see a lot, but actually I also see a lot of people helping other people on the tube as well.
