As some will not doubt know, a new service is being launched in London, next week. A new bus sevice, form London to Sydney, Australia. It costs something like �3,500, and takes 3 months. The first one is fully booked. I hope someone has had the foresight to film it. Maybe EVERYONE who booked has had the same idea and its full of wannabee programme makers, which would also be interesting to see.
