Uncomfortable experience walking to hotel

Yeah, an alarm might be best, perhaps with some dye - I saw combinations on Amazon. I also saw a few alarms that were sold as pendants, which if hung around ones neck and going off at 130Db can't be great for the ears. At least with skunk spray the only lasting damage is in needing to take a week off work as the smell subsides, and the burning of all ones clothes. -

Blowing this out of proportion no?
You were in one of the biggest cities in the world and another human was walking along in a similar direction to you, although they didn't do anything.

Nearly as scary as Global Warming that is.Comment

So, when he saw your face he lost interest?Originally posted by cojak View PostHeard steps behind me to see a bloke walking behind me about 30 metres away. I stopped a moment to make sure he saw me clocking him then walked to the other side of the street in order to walk past a couple of lasses who came from my hotel. I checked to see if he was still there only to find that he'd disappeared.

I'm always aware in certain areas of the city and mindful of my surroundings and London Bridge area can be dodgy at the best of times.
Better safe than sorry and glad things were ok.Comment
