Basically, Mrs MbW, my MIL and myself spent a few days in London a little over 8 years ago, and we went to London Zoo: Mrs MbW, being Russian and an animal lover, said she thought London Zoo was very poor.
Actually, can't they house the American Olympic team at London Zoo for the 2012 games? Would save those of us in and around Birmingham from having to put up with them being here for nearly 2 months...

Many, many years ago I joined the Evening Standard, fresh from the provinces. First week at work, a much older reporter came over to my desk with a slip of paper: a phone message he'd taken for me.
It was a REGent number.
The name left by the caller was Mr Lyon. To be precise: a Mr. C. Lyon.
Would I kindly ring him back?
Yeah. You guessed it. . . (Thankfully, I did too, though only when the switchboard at London Zoo answered.)
