A weekend trip to London

So I was in London last week visiting Millionaire2B. London, is all hustle and bustle now before the Olympics and the amount of tourists were swarming around the hot streets like bees around honey. The constant din of different languages spoken created a constant and pleasant buzz. 

The best way to get around LDN is by public transport. But, wow... how expensive it has become. On the Continent never would we pay the prices a LDNer pays. An Oyster card was practically around 20 UKP. While in Milan 30 EUR would get you a monthly transport pass; in Geneva it would cost around 70 CHF. The monthly costs for a London pass cost around 170 UKP. With conditions; only for zone 1-2. Twice a week. While holding your shopping. With a parrot on your shoulder. Wearing pin-stripe while walking sideways. I do like London, but what are these prices. The French would be shocked! How do I know? I asked them while in Paris... but more on that later. 

But at least I got a chance to walk around and take some snaps.

Lego London


A picture speaks a thousand words, so I'll spare you the text! Read all you want with this picture. Personally I think this is great. Can we get one in Nicosia?

This is what I miss about Britain

My friend emailed me and told me to youtube the T-mobile ad. Which I did and loved! It's set in Liverpool Street Station and basically had people dancing in the station randomly to see the reaction of others. It's proved to be so popular that now it's an advert and everyone cannot stop talking about it. That is what I love about the UK. Maybe one day in Cyprus we can lighten up do something like this... watch the vid and see...
