OK, I just saw an advertisement on TV for a new show called "Jump London".
For my friends over in the UK, have you heard of this? Is this a new fad
(jumping from rooftop to rooftop)? What's this all about????

Hugs,

WALKING London can be dangerous enough (especially when you're
American, and you forget to LOOK RIGHT :O)

I had the same problem with N?le when she was here. They drive on the wrong
side of the road in Germany too ;-) I must have saved her life a couple
of times, and she did the same for me in Germany. I looked right and walked
straight out in front of a car coming from the left.
We had fun over which door she went to get in too, almost always the right
side.. I used to say "do you want to drive, then?"

She got me back when I was in Germany. I always went to get in the left
side.

I was accompanying an American lady friend around London. She walked
across the Earl's Court Road, assuming the traffic would just give way
for her.

It did. I was amazed.

Yes.

If memory serves, freejump began with a group of guys in Paris. It is simply
*stunning* to watch. There has been a previous programme on freejump, where the
team from France used various parts of London architecture as their "range",
performing some amazing jumps. Definitely a case of watch the programme, be
amazed but do not try this at home!

Cheers, helen s

I haven't seen the show, but yes, I belive it is people jumping from
rooftop to rooftop.
