Cool. A lot of new information. Thanks. :up: I did not know that London in Canada is that big.
I prefer to think of this as a "test post" by a newly registered member. Otherwise my head would boil out of trying to find the connection between ity and the PA forum...:p
I'll move this to general topics and let's see if someone finds that connection :hmm:

I'm sure that if you look anywhere in London, probably down Camden, you'd find someone from the Pacific region, so there's your link.
Course, by the time you found anyone in Camden you'd probably have been knifed/mugged/held at gunpoint (please delete as appropriate) but if you've been down Camden market...it's worth it :D Just...stay in the daylight hours and you're alright :up:
And now some real facts about London.
Dirty
Disgusting
Rip Off
Expensive
Guarantee to pick up some sort of bug
Polluted
Guarantee to give you a headache
Transport a bloody joke and a bad one at that
Smells
Ken Livingstone Mayor of London (Need I say anymore about him)And those are the facts from me when I commuted to London.

Another little known fact about London, or more specifically, it's Underground rail network, there's a type of mosquito down there that's unique to the underground system, apparently they went down there when it was being dug and stayed down there, adapting to their surroundings until it's not got to the point where it's virtually impossible to mate the underground mosquito with the aboveground one.
More info here:

I did hear murmurs of a different species of rat down there too, but I can't find any links on it.
I saw Mimic you need more than fly killer if you bump into one of those things in real life. And as for the killer rats you bet they are down there, OK I confess I did read all of James Herbert's, Rats trilogy. As for the London underground which smells like a public toilet and the dodgy rail system I am surprised it has not fallen apart yet.
Don't I just paint a rosy picture of London. :p

...adapting to their surroundings until it's not got to the point where it's virtually impossible to mate the underground mosquito with the aboveground one. Ok who is the dumb ass scientist who tried that?
"Well lets see if a normal mosquito can mate with this one that can survive underground and create a super-mosquito. dum de dum dum dum... oh crap it bit me... GAHHHH..."

/agree
Look at the Underground, and you think delays are mandatory in any train service. :smug:
Look at the NYC Subway, and you think defecation is mandatory in any train carriage. :doh:

Moscow metro, and you'd think it mandatory to drink.
But hey, it's the best looking one. and clean and tidy..though maybe not always safe.

Oh I like how the site with the info about mosquitoes uses it to further their hypothesis about creationism. And I thought I was going to get a simple biology lesson.

No one has mentioned that London has won the bid for the Olympics.That will be a disaster if the the rebuilding of Wembley stadium is to go by.The country will still be paying for it years after we win the gold medal for tiddly winks.The venue in the east end also seems to be a very dubious (dangerous) location!I shall try and be abroad that year.
OK I have been mean on London I shall now have a think about something good about London, this may take a little time.:rolleyes:
OK one thing lots of Bookshops I must admit, I have picked up some real good bargains on books. :yep:
