- Observed a man chase after a woman exiting an underground train only to watch him hand the woman her wallet. It must have fallen out of her purse as she got up to leave. Hope in humanity partially restored.
- Also on the underground, a seat opened up next to man A and woman A. Man A offers the empty seat to woman A, she politely declines. While Man A insists, another woman, woman B, spots the vacant seat and proceeds to snatch it up. Oblivious to woman B, woman A finally caves and proceeds to sit down just as woman B does. Much awkward fumbling and apologizing ensues. Woman B eventually gives the seat up to woman A.
- Was slapped with my first council tax bill. Council tax pays for local services like police, fire, garbage collection, libraries etc. I owe £120 and change by January 1st. The tax would be higher but since I am living with two students the Queen gave me a 25% discount.
- Started Christmas shopping - for myself. Lauren and I went to this massive mall on Saturday complete with an ice rink. I bought a personal record of 3 pairs of shoes for myself. To be fair its been almost 16 months since I've purchased any footwear. Also, some stores were so busy there were lines outside like you see at night clubs.
