As someone who Googled “keep monkey as pet legal uk?” the other day, I know first hand that the internet doesn’t always come up with the answer you’re looking for.
In fact, a quick look at the search terms leading people to this blog reveals just how many questions about London are hanging about in the internet ether, and you know what? It’s high time you got some answers.
Never one to leave people in the lurch, four of your most burning questions are below. (more…)
There’s a problem with taking a few days holiday from work.
It’s not the morning fatigue after a couple of lie-ins, nor is it the bulging inbox that greets you on your return.
It’s getting into work and discovering that on the day you weren’t there, a pony wearing a green raincoat went down the pavement on the Strand.
You can just imagine the talk on the Northern Line that morning.
“What’s that you got there?”
“What? Oh! This? I’m just taking my pony for a walk. On the Strand. He was getting a little bored in his stable of dreams.”

If you’ve seen anything better than that on a pavement in London, please feel free to make me jealous below.
For me, the best London blogs are the ones that explore the quirks and intricacies of this city.
They’re written by people who are fantastic at bringing the mundane, every day, otherwise unremarkable bits of London to life. They make you laugh, give you the inside information, or dedicate themselves to something really, really random.
Like pigeons.
