Let's Go Down to London Town

Me and my better half Laura Eve have decided to take a bit of time out for our hardworking selves in September and take a jaunt down to LDN. We don't want it to be a typical shopping trip - you know: spend ages trying to find Oxford Street, eventually find Topshop, spend millennia in there, leave without buying anything then hop over to H&M and do the same thing all over again. So instead we want to go and see some sights; be proper tourists, take photos and generally knacker ourselves out - but knowing we've made the most of it. So with this in mind I want to list a few things we have to see, places we have to go, things we need to eat and celebrity haunts we need to sit in and wait for aforementioned celebrity to appear. I'm not saying we'll do them all, I'm just saying we'll think about it.

1. Visit Camden Market. (Fair enough, this is still shopping, but it's cool, quirky and so totally "I got this bag for £3 and yes it is hand-made by a student who just screen-printed this iconic yet over-used image onto it")

2. Go on the London Eye. (unless it costs more than a tenner, which I reckon it does)

3. Watch the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace.
4. Go to the National Portrait Gallery. (Always love it there

5. Tate Britain and Tate Modern.

6. Picnic in Hyde Park.

These are the first things that have hit me as interesting. However it's nearly 1.30am and my brain is slowing down and I have to get up for work tomorrow! I shall ask around and get some recommendations to continue my list with. Until then!
