    I know somebody who would like to stay at the hotel inside the Chelsea ground, shall I tell him? No, I'll keep it as a surprise.

    Dao, I also twice stayed in the Hilton Islington Hotel, but luckily it was on business, so I didn't have to pay.

    I did exactlty that on my first trip to London took the tube changed trains and found myself around the corner. Overground map is a good idea although these days I prefer the bus if I've got the time.

    We had 18 inches of snow yesterday, we had a snow day. Still haven't plowed my street, but I'll take the bus.
