...Kennedy would rather not be doing this. She's in London to promote her new novel, but she didn't pack enough clothes before leaving Glasgow, the shops on Oxford Street are expensive and don't open before 10 a.m., and at 39, Kennedy's serious about the business of writing - "I lie for a living" - while interviewers have a bad habit of confusing book and author.

Another tale imagines David Bowie's diary from his Berlin days. Created with...
...British soccer stadiums. But Britain's most sought-after locale, London's Millennium Dome, went to Kerzner International, best known for the coral-pink Atlantis resort in the Bahamas and South Africa's Sun City. Two weeks ago, the company - which has plans for casinos in Manchester and Glasgow - announced that it had finalized an agreement to build a $350 million hotel and casino as part of a redevelopment of the Thames-side site that will also include an 18,000-seat sports-and-entertainment arena.
