Tower of London Tour

For absolutely no good reason at all, I just felt the urge to share these with you. I know how my American cousins in particular enjoy a bit of history from this side of the pond. This guy tells history like I've never seen it done. And don't ever make him angry. I actually wasn't sure whether this was real at first - he's so rude, lol.

There's a lot here, but then it takes a long time to tour the Tower of London. Hope you enjoy - it's informative and damned funny too. I suggest you watch five minutes every night for the next week!

Tower of London, is that where the crown jewels are kept? If so I think I have been there. London was great for a visit, there's absolutely NOTHING like watching the changing of the queens gaurds... though the police are real anal about standing up on on things to get better looks.

Well, the police (like most public bodies over here) have gone health and safety mad LPJ. Instead of keeping public order, they're more concerned with ensuring that nobody trips over a carelessly tied shoelace.

The Crown Jewels are indeed kept there ;-)

I've been in London and I went outside the Tower, but I was afraid to go in...

Actually it was a Sunday and it was closed, but I prefer the other version of the story

I've also been to Oxford. I wondered why there were all these colleges and I couldn't find Oxford. Don't explain, I did figure it out.

I also learned that there are a lot of cows in Sutton Bridge. Oh, and there's a combined cycle power plant. I worked for GE Power when I was there...
