As some people know, I recently moved to England from New York. I'm loving being back in the mother country, and reveling in some of the most basic changes: tea every single day (yum!), debating the proper words for various articles of clothing, re-learning each of the teeny-tiny coins by touch to avoid looking foolish at Starbucks, constantly explaining to people that I *am* a citizen, even though I have a funny accent, and allowing myself to believe that I'll run into Harry Potter and/or Hugh Grant at any given corner...to name a few.
In honor of the recent move - and my inability to keep touch with reality - here are some UK-inspired laughs to get you through your Monday.
#1: This extremely newsworthy front-page story on The Guardian online
#2: This gent who gets himself into a tight squeeze
#3: These everyday struggles
#4: You can also follow VeryBritishProblems on Twitter
#5: Sirs Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen

| And because we <3 them as much as they <3 each other |
#6: This Ikea in Wembley that ran a feline-friendly social experiment
#7: And finally, this picture of David Cameron

| Because I can. |
Now, in honor of the Bank Holiday, I'm off to enjoy a cup of Earl Grey and a jaunt out in the rain. Ta!









Not Hugh Grant or Harry P, but I did see Damien Lewis on the beach and our host saw the Camerons in the local fishmonger ordering monkfish.
