A Bridge Too Far...


A row of epic proportions has broken out on the river Thames, with rival landmarks Tower Bridge and London Bridge goading each other on Twitter, according to the Daily Telegraph. The saga started when Tower Bridge was teased by its upstream counterpart about the tedious nature of its tweets.

Posting that it had been raised and then closed for various ships was just too dull and repetitive for the wag who set up the rival London Bridge account. The bridge’s first words spelt out its intentions: “Certain other bridges in London think they're so cool getting a Twitter account. Well, they're not. I'm the coolest bridge in London. Official.” It then went on to liken speeded-up film of Tower Bridge to “the world’s least exciting pinball machine”. Tower Bridge is yet to comment.
