Do you have any tips about getting around in London and outside of London? ie: metro system, bus, walks, anything you think is very British? Also etiquette ... what to do, not to do from your experience.

If I ever write a book I would be over the moon for you to be the book cover artist(no fear here, because that's just me dreaming...no words to paper yet). And as for you in Paris and London again, without me as your OPC (official paint carrier) I am in fits that will only be relieved with your trip coverage on your blog (pretty please). And Downton Abbey and being enthralled....wherever "thralled" is I am in it.
