Before 11 and After 5



Truly UK has changed so much from 10 years ago. I remember all activity will cease after 5pm except pubs and some take away shops. Now some shops are open till 8pm. for example HSBC in the city centre - bank is the worst service provider in the past, because I remembered they closed at 3pm 10 years ago, now at 8 and this is real improvement.

However, still 80% of the shops will close at five and even earlier - poor us who used to have late night mamak and roti canai :-(

They even restrict transaction before 11am on Sunday - see pic above. But UK people are more hard working now, they will bend the rule and says you may browse in the shop before that - I guess $$$ still rule the world now.

However this is still not good enough for us who are 24 hours hyper-active - I still miss the time we can find food stores in the street at any time you want.
