Take your PSP for those long flights . . . . . I've got one to Rome coming up as well . . . . . or just hope they've got three really good movies and you've got two really good books.

EDIT: You have to really go looking for it because its out of the way, but from the London Eye you can walk to the Imperial War Museum - about 15 minutes I think through some twisting streets - which has some fairly fascinating things, including a Buzz Bomb, trench displays, tanks, a Spitfire, etc, etc.

If you go to Harrods go into By Appointment (the personal shopping part) and look for the hottest lady who works there (she will be wearing all black and has a Canadian accent) because that is my wife!

Oh and don't take a nap in any park you will lose your wallet/phone/shoes/life. Watch out for pigeon poo in Trafalgar square. Go on the London Eye with a camera and go to a busy pub during an important sporting event for some culture.

Have fun pal.
