Any suggestions on things to see or places to eat.

Thanks!!!

Those and also frozen margharita (sp). Anyone who can do more than two of those nightmare, rocket-fuel gut-strippers is more than a man....
I seem to remember there are those who tried, and failed in style.

Maybe us London area based ARFCOM people should meet up for a drink then.

I could do with a cool refreshing 1/2 pint of Shandy

+3.  Great museum.  They also have a great archive, if you're interested in doing any particular research.  Might as well take in a bunch of the tourist attractions, e.g., Tower of London, WWII bunkers near Downing St, etc.   Lots to do in that city.

You have the whole West End to play with.



I'm sure around Baker St there's some Sherlock Holmes stuff to amuse you.



I'm on the other side of town

Wish I'd known.... Just got back from a 3 day business trip to London, based round Millbank and Whitehall, near the London Eye.

Could have met up..... But I'm back home now up Norf.

Have fun though......  Whatever you do go for a propper Curry........ I've been to a place a bit further down from Vauxhall Bridge on the south side of the Thames..... but I can't remembr the name of the place.  There's a good Turkish Restaurant called Nar down behind the Mi6 Buiding.......under the arches... I'd reccomend that as well if you get down that part of the city....
