the power of
London
Welcome to London, England, the land of the Royal Family, double decker buses,
the changing of the guard, the Damned, Latimer Road, Meanwhile II, soccer violence,
Kennington, bobbies, the South Bank, Romford, pubs, clubs, dub, suds, the Plague,
Crystal Palace, Rolling Thunder, Benji Boards, Big Ben, fish and chips, minis, the Great.
Fire and American Werewolves among other things.
London is big. It takes about one and a half hours to cross by tube (subway) and
it's even more hassle by car. The city of London has an outrageous history that has
been battered by wars, great fires, Black Death, Guy Fawkes, Jack the Ripper, Punks,
Mods, Rockers, killer fog, Teds and Acid House. ►
