5. Pub fans: don’t forget that Wetherspoons have regularly cleaned toilets and plenty of seats.
6. It’s not that hard to walk around people standing on the left of the escalator.
7. Camden is good. It has proper old-man boozers and a canal.

16. There is no need for a piano on a railway station.
17. You should take pictures on Waterloo Bridge too.
18. Pizza Express doughballs is the best small plate in London.
19. At least 50 percent of West End theatres aren’t fit for purpose and should be demolished and replaced by ugly but functional venues that have decent-sized seats and won’t fall down.
20. Winter Wonderland is the most fun of any London festival.
21. Beefeaters are quite shit.
