The surge of water in the Thames finally reached Central London. Does that mean the Woolwich Ferry (that I went on today) is now the only way to cross the river?

List Of Towers I Have Been To.
Extensive research from my blogs' viewers confirm that you people enjoy reading lists. I promised lists. This 1 is a list of all the random towers that I have been to. If you have been to any of the towers then share in the comments section. If you haven't then mention tall structures that you have been to.
Space Needle, Seattle, USA: Had one of the best restuarants I have ever been to at the top.
Harbour Centre, Vancouver, Canada: Its a tower in a building.
Blackpool Tower, Blackpool, England: The ugliest of all the towers.
Calgary Tower, Calgary, Canada: I posted a letter from the top.
BT Tower, London, England: I used to call it the Post Office tower. Skylon Tower, Niagara Falls, Canada: Good view of the falls from the top.
Space Needle, Seattle, USA: Had one of the best restuarants I have ever been to at the top.
CN Tower, Toronto, Canada: The glass floor worried me.

Homer Simpson on a hill
Homer Simpson has been painted right next to the Cerne Abbas Giant. Well they have to do something to promote the film in OAP riddled Dorset.
Of course both drawings are very old, one being 4000 years and the other being drawn in the 1980s(!)
Storm Of The Month
The other day at 5pm thunder rumbled across the urban sprawl of East London. Brontophobics cowered, WW2 veterans dusted off their rifles. I was cooking dinner but as I opened the front door the rain came down. And it rained hard. Within 15 minutes the front garden was flooded. Mini-rivers were running down the gutters. Meanwhile the thunder and lightning lashed across the suburban streets. Hailstones the size of peas came down. I took my camera phone and recorded some movies. Watch out for the man getting soaked by a car driving through a huge puddle in 1 video. I was unlucky not to have caught the lightning on film.
Last Day at the Smart Centre- again!

Jesus Christ had mammary glands.
I was on the underground the other day on my way to work when an amusing thing happened.
Time: 8:10am
Line: Northern
I was on the Northern Line. The underground train was pretty busy. Virtually everyone was reading either a newspaper or a book. Then, at Elephant and Castle station, it happened.
Black guy, quite tall, shoddy clothes, cardboard sign on a peice of string round his neck, crucifix at the ready, bible in hand. He was attempting to get everyone to apologise for thier sins. Lets listen in:
"I have been with da lord for 2 years now. 2 years I have been repenting ma sins. Now you must repent your sins. Jesus loves you. He will accept. Give yourself over to the lord by putting a pound in the box. God wants you to put a pound in the box. Jesus loves you. I have been living on the milk of Christ. Christs' milk feeds me. Taste the milk of Christ. I live on the milk to Christ. It appeases my sin."
The British public resoluted ignored him, instead deciding to opt for the 'I will pretend its not happening' technique. They studied every word they were reading, digesting every syllabel, re-reading every sentence. Anything but acknowledge he was there.
I wanted to enquire of the man 2 things
a) In the bible the Pharisees forbade the wearing of a crucifix so if he has read the bible in his hand surely he would know that and
b) Does Christ lactate?
Unfortunatly he got off at Stockwell before I could ask him.
