London is a pussycat.But a pussycat with claws. Just be sensible with your stuff.
I've been away from her for so long that I feel like a stranger, but the instinct comes back pretty quick.
Just remember that most of the people you have to worry about aren't actually the Londerners themselves. It turns out that even those thieving bastards from Tunbridge Wells are allowed to ply their trade on the streets there.

Oh dear - I'm sorry!Wallet = not in bum/hip pocket, nor in jacket pocket. Keep it in a zipped pocket if you can.
And above all, just be aware of what's going on around you.
This is the same advice for any large city. It's not scary at all - but it's bewildering and that's when you get targeted.
There's a few thousand Londoners laughing at me now I'm sure, (Hi Gill - I hope to see you in Omaha.).
