I am in Chafford Hundred (UK)

The weather is great....

Any niners around? to meet. It will be cool.

(any tips to look around?

now seen, londen eye, tower bridge, a nice concert at the trafalger square... walked around the oxford circus, fenchurch street... yea end of the list)

I don't get to London much, but last time I was there (7 or 8 years ago) if liked St Paul's Cathedral -- getting up onto the roof is quite an experience.  Once you're done there you can stroll down over the Millennium footbridge to the Tate and look at some art.

Natural History museum is good, but not in the center of London so you might have to get a bus\taxi\tube there (I can't remember, but I think I went by tube last time).

EDIT : Getting serious deja-vu here, have we had this conversation before?

Hyde Park is always fun to walk around. I had a great time in London when I was there a couple of years ago.

can always hop on the big red bus and jump off when you find something you like.

I love covent garden. Have a coffee and listen to the string music. Sure, it's touristy, but I love it.

Ah yeah I forgot about that. Super touristy, and usually pretty crowded, but a nice place to sit and have a drink while listening to the street musicians.

The British museum is a must.

The tower of London is also worth a visit.

Considering I study here I really don't seem to have that much inspiration when it comes to recomending places to visit
