I'm moving to England i.e. London in a few months and have started wondering what people consider essential things to have done/experienced as an English Person. So I am looking for suggestions for how to pass as a native.
So far on my list:
Nando's (never been)
Greggs
Wetherspoon
Going to Bath
Any type of suggestions legit or humorous are welcome!
So, how can I prevent looking like a tourist rather than a native?

I dont know what country you are from but all shops here charge an minimum of 5p each for carrier bags so either stock up on reusable bags or be prepared to pay. Also in some countries supermarkets have people who pack your bags we dont have that here so be prepared to pack your own.
Also in London there's an card scheme for public transport called the Oyster card which allows to prepay for journeys. It may be worth getting it as especially you dont know the prices for journeys initially and it saves you having separate tickets for underground and bus should your journey involve both.

Please do not pm me without permission as I find getting PMs very stressful.
Was just about to come and lightly roast Dawn for being a London n00b :P
