Steed,

I'm glad that you're not working for the London Tourism office.

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

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..."
