Did you know that the name Big Ben doesn't refer to the clock-tower? It actually refers to the thirteen ton bell hung within it. I was told the bell was named after a man named Sir Benjamin Hall, who was as wide as he was tall - Big Ben. :)
No I didn't.. and it took me THIS long to see this comment too...ughThis is why I turned on email - comment notification. ;)
