Favourite London Tweets

Monday, September 23, 2013

It's Social Media Week in London, so I've been inspired to gather together some of my favourite former-tweets about things I've seen, heard and encountered in London - mainly on the buses. Enjoy!

LOLs at overhearing man on bus talking about Glastonbury and how amazing it was to see sheep... until I realise he said Chic.

Man doing full-on acrobatic workout on the Overground tonight, using horizontal bars + vertical poles. Carriage full of admiration + aghast.

Walworth Rd this morn: two young guys necking in a bus shelter while their flashy girlfriend makes sarky comments. How very Beautiful Thing!

Overheard outside @britishmuseum: man with Dudley accent and mild sarcasm: "Let's go in here; I'm sure there'll be something of interest".
