INTERRAIL 5: LONDON
"One thing that I don't understand about the architecture in London or generally in Britain..." //
...are these pits between sidewalks and and house walls. //
"You can't grow plants there because they're too dark." //
"And from the downstairs windows you have this breathtaking (dim-lit) view to the opposite wall. Or maybe trash cans." //
"And all you get in this pit protected by a fence is rain water, fallen leaves and candy wrappers! Yuck." //
"What is the point of this pit and why are they everywhere in Britain? If someone can explain, I'd actually really appreciate it."
Kävin Lontoon eläintarhassa. Piirsin siellä eläimiä.
I visited London Zoo. I drew animals there.
"Everyone thinks we're some sort of ninja dinosaurs. Not cool, bro!" "Well, at least it's not frogs anymore! But I'm not surprised that long-necked turtles weren't the inspiration for TMNT..."
Lumihevonen innostui pitkäkaulaisesta kilpikonnasta ja piirsi
hienomman ninjakilpikonnan.
Snowhorse got excited about the long-necked turtle and drew a better ninja turtle.
"In an earlier comic I wondered why there's so often this pit between the sidewalk and the building in Britain." //
I asked Mudkip who is a Londoner. "They weren't originally built that way." //
"Initially, the buildings had windowless basements. Later on, they were turned into apartments, and people wanted them to have windows." //
"Fences were made so that people wouldn't fall into the pits." //
"...but it's still a dark pit that collects rain water and trash, right?" "Yep." //
"And here in the center the rents are crazy." "I wouldn't pay to be able to see a pit from the window."
If you're planning to sleep in a hostel room with other people at some point... //
...make sure you wake up when your alarm rings. //
If you don't tend to wake from your alarm... //
...change it to something that will wake you up. //
Because if you don't... //
...you might be woken up by something else completely.
Jatkuu... //
To be continued...
