Randomness!

As instructed, here are my bits of randomness. Both are from my recent trip to the UK. This time, neither involves cemeteries or bees.

"Mind the gap" makes me so happy. I don't even know why. It's just so British.

I love that there is a maritime flag that literally means "stop carrying out your intentions and watch for my signals." Does it work? And if so, can I put it on a t-shirt?

It is totally so British. XDD And I love that that flag exists, too! Also, "I require a tug." I would wear that 24/7 if it would get me 24/7 tug.

The real question is, when you're a Finnish vessel, do people automatically also assume you would like them to stop carrying out your intentions and watch for my signals?? Did sharing a maritime border with Russia inspire Finland's choice of national flag??? XP

I know just what you mean about "Mind the Gap"! It means one has truly arrived in London. :) It's been a long time since I've been there, but every time I've been, it was awesome. Thanks for sharing!

Yankee is for Monday mornings before coffee. I love how Juliet is really dire and is such a calm blue and white. I think they'd all make really great icons or one of those mood indicators.
