London is doing some AMAZING THINGS!

Yesterday the main roads : Regents Street, Oxford Circus, Piccadilly Circus . . .. Was TURNED INTO a "Formula 1" raace track - SERIOUS! . . . Tonight the whole of Trafalgar Square is being covered with green Astro turf for an outside production of Puccini's La Boheme !

Not taken my XM2 to either .. ARRRggghhhh .. .

I Love this Town! ! ! ! !

We're - again - going for the Olympics and we've got the London EYE!

Love this Town!

Grazie

Yaaahn

When I lived in Pontiac Michigan in the 70's they did this sort of thing. There is some town in France where they do it too.. the name escapes me.

Must've been hard to find a taxi after getting your shopping in Regent Street, Grazie! - Just saw it on the news here ....

We used to have an F1 grand prix street race in Adelaide where I lived for a coupla years. We lived about 10 miles away and you could still hear it!

Grazie--watch yourself crossing the street. The last peformance of La Boheme I saw on Astro-Turf was horrible. The Mimi character got a bad carpet burn!
