Welcome to PF, multipleofc! :biggrin: (Watch out for the penguins. They look cute but have a mean waddle!)
 
Hi Multiple!

I went to London once. Loved it. Saw the Rosetta Stone and the London Eye and took a boat all the way to Greenwich to stand on the meridian.

You've got lots of swans there.

Enjoy Physics Forums!

I see... This forum is quite weird and different from other forums I must say!

I can't do an avatar and stuff, and the post count is weird, but the subject is cool! :D
 
  • #26
yeah, you have to give them money if you want an avatar. (can you believe it? How cheap!)
 
  • #27
Hehe, I know!

Is it some research foundation thing, or they are just cheap?

You could say it's a research foundation. I wouldn't, but you could. :biggrin:
