Did you know ....?
The Clock Tower is the world's largest four-faced, chiming clock.
The structure is situated at the north-eastern end of the Houses
of Parliament building in Westminster, London. It is often mistakenly
called "Big Ben" — which is actually the main bell
housed within the Clock Tower.
The Clock Tower has also been referred to as The Tower of Big
Ben, Big Tom[citation needed] and, incorrectly, St Stephen's
Tower which is actually towards the middle of the Palace, and
is the main point of entry for attendees of debates and committees |

Update
on Schengen Agreement
A total of 30 states, including all European Union states and three
non-EU members (Iceland, Norway, and Switzerland), are subject to
the Schengen rules, and 24 have implemented them so far.
The Republic of Ireland and the United Kingdom only take part
in the police co-operation measures and not the common border control
and visa provisions.
Border posts and checks have been removed between the states which
form the Schengen area. A common Schengen visa allows tourists or
other visitors access to the area.
Holders of residence permits to a Schengen state enjoy the freedom
of travel to other Schengen states for a period of up to three months.
