St Paul’s Cathedral, London editorial

St Paul’s Cathedral Architects contacted the platform Lift Company Limited in regards to the installation of a proposed Platform Stair-lift installation to get disabled persons into the cathedral but there was a twist….the Platform Stair-lift lift had to be in keeping with St. Paul’s environment, how do we do this? This is the masterpiece of Britain’s most famous architect Sir Christopher Wren  It was built between 1675 and 1710, after its predecessor was destroyed in the Great Fire of London.  “Easy” said the Platform Lift designers “you tell us what we need to build and to what design and you will have the platform stair-lift installed on time 1st time every time to your design as long as it complies”  it was just like magic as they got just what they wanted!!

Things to do in a lift

1) When there’s only one other person in the lift, tap them on the shoulder and then pretend it wasn’t you.

2) Push the buttons and pretend they give you a shock. Smile, and go back for more.

3) Ask if you can push the button for other people, but push the wrong ones.

4) Call the Psychic Hotline from your cell phone and ask if they know what floor you’re on.

5) Hold the doors open and say you’re waiting for a friend. After a while, let the doors close, and say, “Hi Greg. How’s your day been?”

6) Drop a pen and wait until someone goes to pick it up, then scream, “That’s mine!”
