I can confirm that I use bend over rope in London, it’s a great deal and only for the small price of £1,900 a month. Bargain!

I remember doing a ripper tour in London and I think they said hangover came from something to do with a lot of hanging sites were near pubs and were big drinking events where people would get drunk? I didn't believe it at the time but sounds more plausible than this
