Another place to put on my list of Things To See In London.

I wonder how long it will be before some impatient pedestrian decides to try
and cross on the diagonal /before/ the lights stop the traffic.

	Anyone here ever screamed whilst reading manga? What *else* were you 
doing at the time?!

	Professor Shizumas cloning technology took off then?

	Peter, if you're in London, you might be interested to know that Tokyo 
Toys have a small branch in the Trocadero Centre. Its rather like a very 
compact Animate, concentrating more on plush dolls, stationary 
knick-knacks and the like. Rather small selection of mecha toys, 
unfortunately.
