Yeah that's accurate. Some of those touristy things are very expensive and could buy a few pints instead

Askance! Love that word! I digress. People rarely do that though (except real youngens, students etc). They all lie to themselves they're in London for the culture and art etc but they're so exhausted from climbing the ladder and networking, they don't have time.

People turn extremely capitalistic in London. If you're not displaying your wealth or working to improve it, it's a waste of time.

Those in zones 4-6 especially spend all their time there, and just hang around for after work in central drinks. If they venture in, it's undoubtedly for food/coffee/drinks and not much else
