So we’re falling off the world stage, poor fallen angel Londoners. No more house parties. No more light shows. No more telly before breakfast. No more DLR (yay!) The olympic comedown kicks in today….though the Paralympics are looking really rather compelling – and sold out. It’s their time now. (Sight challenged high-jumping tickets please!)
So what can we do with our time now? Well here’s something really straight, pretty interesting and very far from sporting in every sense: the summer recess tour of parliament – from now til the end of the month. You’ll learn the origins of so many odds and sods in the English language, such as toe the line. Those red lines above? They’re two swords length apart. It seemsPrescott wasn’t the first MP to get a bit lively…
