I am having a bit of trouble loading phots but will put a few of the UK up anyway

There is a lot of debate about whether these Elgin Marble freizes from the Parthenon in Athens should be returned to Greece. The British Museum which houses them has a compelling argument that not only did they save them from certain destruction/dispersion but over 12 million visitors a year view them for no charge.

had a yummy bruch at JO's Fifteen in London but his is as close as we got to the man himself. I am really impressed witht the wway the lives of these young people are turned around by the opportunities he has given them and so I'm pleaed to support his efforts by eating their nutritious meals. Not a big sacrifice on my part.
