Man, everyone, and I mean EVERYONE I talked to in London seems to hate Ken Livingston. They were mad about Trafalgar Square. They were mad about The Eye. They were mad about the Millenium Dome. They were FURIOUS about the traffic congestion chages.
They were mad about just about everything the guy ever had his name close to. So why do you keep electing him mayor???
We thought about Zimbabwe, as well as North Korea, Russia, and some other places where they are currently slaughtering their own people by the thousands. We finally picked the UK because we wanted to slaughter our own selves with the worst italian and mexican food in the history of the human race.
PS: If you made another egg building like that, and got the Mothership building in camera, you'd have what appear to be the world's largest male genitalia. Seems like somebody's feeling inadequate in europe...?
J/K we had a great time and everyone was at great pains to be nice to us, the horrible lost continental cousins. We tried to return the favor by dressing in dark muted clothes, not wearing shorts, and talking in quiet voices. Our own brand of American Ambassadorship. I would actually cringe when I heard loud yammering American tourists from the midwest. (Lisa is of former southern aristocracy, and they feel the same way about loud boorish behavior as the Brits....).

I thought you'd said nothing had happened in my absence, fer crying out loud.
GG congrats Monse.
Its weird, I've seen a load of those places, London, and Edinburgh once or twice - I was wondering what filter you used to make it all look so bright and cheery?

LOL its funny you should say that about the guys trying to climb the wall. lmao I tottaly forgot about this. Me and my 2 mates when i was about 14 free climbed up to the wall (not over it lol we werent that crazy) and waved to everyone on Princess Street below. We thought it was absolutly hilarious at the time and to this day I have NO idea how the hell we got up there nor did we consider how dangerous this feat was. Man that cliff is HIGH if you look at it from a distance and also there is no path up it.
