Is it quicker to take the Jubilee or the Metropolitan line from Wembley Park to Bond Street?
A journey on the Jubilee Line takes 20-21 minutes and is direct. Theoretically, you can do the journey in all of one minute less by taking the Metropolitan as far as Finchley Road and changing to the Jubilee there, but it's doubtful the hassle of changing trains is worth it!
There is a certain part called SCREAM!, which is for 12 years and older.
Not for people with high blood pressure and it contains strobe lighting. Its very short, but it's sort of scary if your the first in the group. People dressed as zombies come out and try to touch you but they don't and people run across. If you are going with only one person I recommend you go in the front because if you are in the back they will chase you, but not the person in the front. If you are going with two or more people I recommend the middle. Always stay together when you are in SCREAM because it is like a maze and you need to find the exit. If you get really scared you should scream. If you touch the zombies they will touch you so BEWARE. It is also very much haunted, and as you might of seen it was on yvette fieldings most haunted! sometimes people hear and see a man with his daughter and son. im sorry if you wanted to go and i put you off but i wanted to warn you. thanxs.

How do the population growths of Manchester and London compare?
The population of Manchester grew rapidly at the start of the Industrial Revolution, climbing continuously from 95,000 in 1801 to a peak of 750,000 in 1931. The population has declined since then, with a recorded 392,819 in the 2001 census, a 9.2% drop since 1991.
Inner London also saw continuous growth in the 19th and early 20th centuries, with the population rising from 879,491 in 1801 to a peak of 4,997,741 in 1921. Seven decades of declining population was halted in 1991, with an increase of 200,000 over 1981 and a further increase in 2001 to a recorded population of 2,765,975.
The population growth of Outer London is far more marked than Inner London, rising from 131,666 in 1801 to a peak of 4,483,595 in 1961, much later than the Inner London population peak, probably caused by suburbanisation as people moved out of the depressed and run-down inner city. After falling for thirty years to 4,182,979 in 1981, the population of outer London has risen since and was recorded as 4,406,061 in 2001, only a few thousand off the all time peak.
