So I'm down in London for a few days next month. Most of this time is taken up with work schizzle but I'm considering staying an extra day and doing a bit of touristing whilst I'm down there.
What are the must do things for a day in London? Apart from being stabbed by a 15 year old.

The Imperial War Museum. The Tower.

Yeah, go to the Tower if you want to be smashed in a crowd of fatties wearing Texas Longhorns ball caps.

Brazen. Definitely a "must do" while in London.

Maybe there were fewer colonials around during GW1. :hmm:

We know the cool places to hang out.

Just avoid British Museum and you'll be fine. Huge snorefest.

Did you go to Baltimore by accident, or was your Stetson a give-away to the locals ?  :P

National Gallery

Good one, the Tate (original) is always worth a visit for the Turners along, plus it's one of the quietest galleries, especially on a sunday morning.
