upper lip Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 Ive made it to NYC so barring an internal disaster I shall be in Cleveland on Saturday. Main thing I've noticed is your bar staff and waiters/waitresses are so much nicer than back home. People in England are rude as shit, have the worst personalities, and have an odd sense of humor.

Manzier Posted November 14, 2014 Report Share Posted November 14, 2014 My brother lived in Bath for several years and I visited many times. Never felt anyone was rude. Folks seemed about the same to me. The one thing I learned is "look BOTH ways before you cross the street" has more meaning in London, than it does here. Wow. Almost got run down several times.

LondonBrown Posted November 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2014 The service and politeness I've received here has been far superior to england so I can understand people thinking we are rude. But that's people in low paid jobs acting out. We are good people. This time tomorrow I'll be in Cleveland can't tell you how excited I am. For now im being taken to a 'dive bar' in NYC whatever that means Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If London ends up in Pittsburgh and is barred from boarding a plane for cursing out all Steelers fans in sight, I will personally drive my happy ass there and pick him up.

Manzier Posted November 15, 2014 Report Share Posted November 15, 2014 When I fly & drink, I always try to be a very happy drunk. It wins points with the stewardesses every time. I usually start with a few harmless terrorist jokes, followed by "is this a bomb in my pocket or am I just happy to see you?" Trust me, they LOVE it!!!
