Based on Time Out magazine's most popular column, Word on the Street brings together the best of the most ridiculous, bizarre, near-the-knuckle and sweet utterances by Londoners as heard by Londoners.
The collection of over 200 quotes features gems such as, 'West Ham isn’t short for West Hampstead?' and 'are you sure? Isn’t cauliflower just the ghost of broccoli?'
