Its not too hard getting around London, just don't go at 7-9am and 5-7pm. There is a technique, its just really hard to use .
I <u>will</u> be a bit **** off if there suddenly is thousands of those tacky merchandise shops springing up all over the place. I saw a "My friend went to London and all I got was this shirt" and could help but shudder.

The olympics should come to Wisconsin. We've got cows....and lakes... and there's a few stadiums and stuff here. Not much in the way of traffic problems, really, either. We're like Salt Lake City - except colder and we grow our own grass (and our lakes are filled with PCBs, not salt).
And those French turned her over to the Burgundians who turned her over to the English, who burned her.
I'd have to say it was all pretty much downhill after that little Napoleon incident, myself.
Good for those living in England. I don't live in England, never been to England and probably won't go to England. Not that I'm prejudiced against you English chaps, but I'm just too poor to buy airline tickets <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->.
