we have had a shitty couple of days with the crap we got from BT so decided to take Rose down to that London for the weekEnd and we are looking for suggestions as to where to go what to do,, we have all day saturday a hotel already booked central and all day Sunday.
suggestions on a post card or by pm please ..
or on here ,
must dos while in THAT LONDON
STAGGY N ROSE
London Eye (waterloo) and stroll the Southbank
plus Tate Modern. (walk the wobbly bridge to St Pauls, it no longer wobbles) Riverboat trip?
Soho? (burger in Ed's Diner, Old Compton St.
Dont use the toilet in the Trocedero (picadilly), they cost a pound a pee.
shopping?
Covent garden and the back streets... quite interesting and varied.
The Royal Parks? (there might be some long grass)

National History museum is fab- and I'm told the science museum next door is too.
Look out for the lesser spotted Rolp on your travels too!
Do the Eye during the day, then a spot of lunch (perhaps a slice of pizza eaten on a blanket in Hyde Park) stroll along the Thames path and visit the Tate Modern (Nice Pub near there right on the banks)or eat at one of the pretty brasseries in any of the arcades along the path. After dark hit Ronnie Scots and then hang out and drunkenly watch the freaks around Leicester Square.
Go to Buckingham palace....check the Queen is in residence...plant large explosive device.....run
I think the Eye is being upgraded/maintained and may not be running. If you want to use it I'd check t'internet for the facts.
If the weather's nice - how about getting some gorgeous tit-bits (no not THOSE kind of tit-bits - food and a bottle of wine) from your typical London posh deli and have an impromptue picnic in St James's Park?
dippy ..so many girls, so little time
in hotel..crisp white linen Rose in the shower, its gonna take some effort to go out, 'That London' is saying come get me though....
watch out for the brief, though heavy showers.
not in the room... on da street
lp
Walk the channel from Camden. You can forget you are in London. You can see part of the Zoo, without paying a penny, and the water is cooling.
Ooooh I almost forgot about the Tibetan Peace Garden which is strangely next to the Imperial War Museum....go figure :huh:
Just thought I'd ask - - what's the 'THAT London' reference about? I assumed it was a typo.
here, it's: This London.
did you enjoy?
lp
we had a blast, needed it to after all the crap we have had with BT..we did the usual stuff round the city and shops then a few drinks in the hotel in the evening and windsor and the races the following day. not really into the sport of kings but it was quite a spectacle none the less. i know its not exactly That London is it, Windsor, but it is to us northerners, was disappointed we didnt run into Philip or Queenie in the Windsor farm shop .. STILL YA CANT HAVE EVERYTHING CAN YOU..
isnt your beer expensive down there?
staggy and rose
Or go to Vinopolis to taste wine. Then relax at Rio's (it's got a garden if it is daytime where you can sunbathe). Go rowing at Regent's Park boating lake. Have drinks at the Tattershall Castle overlooking the London Eye. Ride in different cars on the London Eye and see if you can see under your woman's skirt... then say 'I do not believe it, that hot number up there is wearing no knickers!' and get everyone else to notice her. 
Take a picture next to the guard at Buckingham Palace - they never smile. Go knock on Gordon's door or at least be photographed in front of it.
