Do as we did and cruise up the Thames from Limehouse to Teddington on a boat...

 

We managed to avoid all the tourist traps, but still saw all the sights.

 

Tower Bridge, Houses of Parliament, London Eye etc...didn't cost us a penny

Thanks for all the suggestions, didn't end up doing any of them !

 

Got the train ticket from home, after finding my debit card broken (where the chip is). Thankfully the kind lady at the station swiped it so that I could get a ticket. Then got to tottenham court road, where I went straight into the bank. Again very helpful, checked out the card (and confirmed it was knackered), but let me take out some cash :) and ordered a replacement for me. I then wandered down oxford street to regent street to the apple store, well I walked straight past it first and then searched on the phone for it, and walked back. A very odd shop, with no checkouts, staff use mobile gadgets and cash registers are hidden in desks, and receipts are printed out across the store somewhere...

 

After that I made my way across to covent garden where I found another apple store. This one had a queue of a few hundred people and everytime one went in a group of apple staff cheered and high fived them ! I think they were getting the iPhone 4.

 

Met up with my wife and did a bit of shopping (bloke not woman shopping :thumbs:), and since my card was dead she payed for everything :D We ended up eating in a dim sum restaurant called 'ping pong', which was really nice and very reasonably priced.

 

Got home at a reasonable time, just had to stand all the way home on the train.

 

Rob.
