THE ANGST OF ANG – THE NORTHERN MONKEY SURVIVAL GUIDE TO LONDON
Before You Go...
First, you'll need to work out what to pack. Ask a Southern Jessie and they'll probably tell you to pack shorts, suntan lotion and a fan to help you cope with the sweltering climate down south. This is but a sad southern delusion. You'll actually find the weather isn't massively different from the north. At any rate, you shouldn't waste the valuable packing space. Instead, simply find every spare bag and case in your house and stuff them full of cash to prepare for the extortionate prices you’re about to find.
