the Shard loomed above the station.
I got dizzy looking upwards...
and will be happy to save the £90 not going up it...

They should build a big f*cking peace wall around the City and East London, you know, Canary Wharf and that. Its f*cking horrible. I can't imagine this is going to improve matters.

Did he win on points, knockout, pin-down, what?
Re: General Chit Chat
pin down + scratch + bite + squirrel only got one shot in where my cat got about 20 + squirrel legged it right down the garden and over the fence = cat win
