Peter arrives in London

Peter Krogdahl, one half of the Broke for Going team, arrived in London from Australia this morning. Peter Krogdahl and his friend and colleague, Michael Whiteman, are believed by many to be the last hope for Western Civilisation, following the abduction of the World Economy in September 2008.

Peter and Michael's impending visit to the city prior to their mission to rescue the World Economy has had an electrifying effect all the way across the country. Hundreds of thousands of ordinary Britons have been reportedly been spontaneously gathering in public parks and city squares throughout the nation, singing and dancing in celebration.

News of Peter's arrival in London today sent the FTSE 100 rallying strongly during the day, closing more than 500 points higher at 4614.24. Investors throughout the United Kingdom said that they had never seen such a dramatic change in market sentiment and activity.

After negotiating his way through the admiring crowds at Heathrow Airport, Peter boarded a taxi to Downing Street to discuss strategy with Prime Minister, Gordon Brown. Security measures for Peter's visit have been tight, and no reporters were present for the meeting at No.10, but it is understood that discussions centred around the possible identity of one of the rougue bankers believed to have abducted the World Economy.



















Following their discussions at Downing St, Mr. Brown brought Peter to a automotive research facility in Coventry, where a vehicle has been specifically developed and manufactured for Peter and Michael's mission to Mongolia. Equipped with GPS, wireless internet, and with "100% carbon neutral" plutonium power cell generating power for the car's electric motor.

While thoroughly impressed, Peter was forced to decline Gordon's offer, explaining that though the vehicle was very nice, with both Peter and Michael traveling together to rescue the World Economy, a car with at least two seats would be required.

Peter and Michael are due to leave London for Paris on the 18th of July, to begin gathering evidence of the Economy's abductors, and their destination.
