10 Signs You Have Lived In London For Too Long

2. Your Fridge Looks Like This

Everyone is obsessed with health in London. Throw a brick into a park and you will probably hit a boot camp. Smoothie bars are quietly, menacingly advancing through the high streets of every town, and the average walk to the shop will involve being ran into by at least nineteen joggers. Wearing massive headphones. Despite that, the health buzz does not seem to have made it to your fridge. The annoying and senseless craze of eating breakfast at work desks seems to have nestled itself into working culture completely unquestioned by everyone (Why?!). There is a Pret a Manger for every lamp post in the city, and most London dwellers have long since relegated their mum€™s mobile for the local Japanese on their speed dial. So it will not come as much of a shock to open your fridge to an unopened pint of milk, sixteen cans of Kronenberg and a half tube of tomato puree that went off when John Major was Prime Minister.
