    Thanks for sharing this, it reminds me how great the city of London was in 1991, when I tossed some money to some musicians sleeping in one of the "subways" under a main St, and how great Hyde Park was. I was there on business, but like always, supported the "underdogs", rode the Underground, and learned not to confuse it with the subways. (In the USA we use different terms). It was quite a trip, back when you could still smoke tobacco on British Airways flights. I highly doubt I will ever "take a jump across the pond" again, but I do not rule anything out these days. I look forward to watching this video several times. Best Wishes from the USA! :) John EDIT: Oh yeh, driving on the other side of the rode was a "trip", especially inan a brand new Rover that looked alike a Saab 9000, but slightly more cool. The city of Roundabouts, Basinstroke, was also really nice, and directions like "Take the 2nd at the 1st, the 3rd at the second, and the 1st at the third", still echo with pleasure in my memory. You folks must really love Sting, The Police, and music in general! I know I do! :)
