  • Answer:

    have you tried any of the Special Walking Tours?- like a Beatles Walk/Ghost Walk? I have enjoyed the several I have take with this company over the yrs http://www.walks.com/ Might be too late to get tickets but going to see a TV/Radio show recorded is fun and Free http://www.channel4.com/microsites/T/takepart/tickets.html Also have you ever gone to any of the concerts ( some are free) at St Martins-in-the-Fields ( and the "By Candlelight" series Is worth the price) http://www2.stmartin-in-the-fields.org/page/music/lunchtime.html

Wow, you've seen more places than I have, I'd suggest the Science museum, and especially the Duck tours, keep meaning to go on that, there's always Kew Gardens a rally fascinating place even if like me you have no interest in botany, then there's always the Ghost tour bus. I always buy an Oyster card and just take random red buses just to get a good look around, as you probably know after you swipe onto your third bus the card isn't debited so you go all day for about £4. You've been to Hyde Park, there's a great pub near Lancaster Gate tube station it overlooks Hyde Park/Kensington Gardens, It's a tourist trap but the food and beer are excellent and it's great to sit outside and watch the giant trees sway in the breeze( if you're a drinker the Fullers ESB is a must).
