The               clock               and               all               of               parliament               glow               in               brown               and               gold               in               the               evening               sun.

This               is               one               of               the               most               impressive               buildings               in               all               of               London,               and               it               would               figure               that               its               exterior               was               designed               by               a               Frenchman.

The               complex               was               started               by               Henry               VIII               between               the               Thames               and               the               ancient               Westminster               Abbey               and               almost               equally               ancient               Celebration               House               where               kings               and               queens               have               celebrated               since               before               Edward               I.

The               parliament               building               was               a               place               where               fees               and               fines               were               paid               during               the               early               19th               century.

To               keep               a               record               a               strip               of               wood               was               marked               and               split,               one               used               as               a               receipt.

During               the               1830's               officials               decided               to               get               rid               of               the               strips               of               wood.

Charles               Dickens               was               reporting               affairs               of               parliament               for               two               papers               at               the               time,               this               being               well               before               he               was               famous               for               his               novels.

Dickens               proposed               the               idea               of               giving               the               wood               back               to               the               public               so               they               could               use               it               to               keep               warm.

This               was               too               much               for               parliament               to               consider,               so               they               burned               the               strips               of               wood               all               at               once,               which               was               too               much               for               the               furnace.

The               entire               parliament               burned               down.

Later,               when               the               Nazis               bombed               parliament               a               statue               of               Richard               the               Lionhearted               was               slightly               damaged,               the               king's               sword               was               comically               bent.

Churchill               used               the               metaphor               to               his               benefit:               we               are               bent               but               not               broken.
