I love London, love the theatres in the west end, love To Kill a Mockingbird.
Wait no.... I don't believe in killing unless it's for food. I have relatives that still live in the Ozarks but none would eat Mockingbirds, I don't think. I'll ask my Uncle Wade. . The book! To Kill a Mockingbird -the book - is what I love. I'm never quite sure where to put the dashes (where to put a -) in a sentence properly. But yes, I had a great time.
I brought a friend Stelios, he had a great time also. He's Greek.
