Everything is backwards!

It is not true that they drive on "the other side of the road" in Europe-most countries don't. It is true that they drive on "the other side of the road" in the UK. I know this, but it is really difficult to remember. London knows this, and looks out for their tourists by painting "Look Right" or "Look Left" in large letters in front of every crosswalk. Thank you London!

The backwards thing also caused me to take an hour to boil water. This is because I didn't realise (its amazing how quickly you pick up the brittish s) that the knobs were opposite, and I had the burner on low instead of high.
