I hate all of these modern buildings that look as if they were hacked from a solid block of misery (although I do appreciate the work of the builders).

Why can't we go back to the gothic and Victorian arcgitecture of old; is it simply a question of money/ health and safety? I mean genuine workmanship in the woodwork, stone carving, glazing...why can't we just sod the modern era and political correctness once in a while and build something that's actually nice, and so grand that we could actually be proud to call it a public building?

I don't want to have to go to Leicester Square every afternoon on my week in London to get discounted theater tickets. Is there some reliable place on the web to order half-price tickets in advance?
Also, any recommended good restaurants in London? (guess I want it all!)

It is a really tiny roundabout with no hump, just some white lines on the tarmac.
I think its illegal but not entirely sure.

my husband and i are going to london perhaps for a couple of days last time we went we found a lovely bed and breakfast but spent lots of money on taxis as we were miles away from the centre we want to go the art museuns and to the theatre we tried the tube but as beginners found it confusing so do you know somewhere not expensive near the centre that we can stay just bed and breakfast and shower do you think we could book when we get there ir is it best to do it before we go

Okay in Lake Wales Florida there is this strange hill, that gravity does not apply to.
"Apparently no one has heard of the law of gravity there, because it is blithely disobeyed every day of the year, to the frequent amusement of both tourists and natives. When the parking brake is released, a car parked in neutral will roll mysteriously uphill, as will ball bearings, tennis balls, and Florida grapefruit dropped experimentally on the ground. Even water flows uphill on Spook Hill. Or so it seems. " -http://www.trivia-library.com/b/tourist-sights-spook-hill-in-lake-wales-florida.htm

Can anyone find any back stories? Whats the truth why does this happen? Can anyone write Mythbusters? OR tell me how to write Mythbusters. Or find out any and all information on this crazy hill... Maybe pictures also! Thank you!

I am an American who wants to visit London for the first time in the near future. I am not sure what area I should be looking into if I want to find a hotel and see a great deal of the city. I would like to be in the middle of it all. What locations do you suggest are the best if I am interested in experiencing London as if I live there? Thanks.

I start a job in Central London in three months. It'll be my first real time away from home (not including Uni when I was home every weekend). Dur to London being such an overwhelming place and the prices being so high I have decided to commute, my upper limit is 1 hour on the train (one way).

Where does this leave me for options? I know Waterloo Station-HoParliament, where I will be working, is walkable, but what about from Paddington? Where would be a good place for me to look in to living (I just want a small flat), no more than 1 hour away on the train- a friend mentioned Reading?

How much is it likely to cost me to get in to London on the train from this distance, and do you by an annual train ticket or something?

Thanks!
