at the crack of dawn... 5.15am, National Express... back on Thurs, so there'll be loads to catch up with. Doing the Eye, the Dungeons, and the Science museum... any recommendations, on eateries, etc?? Good markets? Staying in Barking.

I can recommend a trip to Covent Garden.............admittedly it's home to two of my fav shops ( Lush and Be Never Too Busy) and one of LMW fav shops ( Build a Bear) . We've been a few times to go to the ballet at the Royal Opera House (a spectacular building in itself).

Jamie Oliver's restaurant '15' is directly opposite the dungeons!

[freddie]

Is it now??? Maybe we'll have to have a look at that....

I was sure it was, we went on one of those open top coach tours of London a few years ago and I could have sworn it was but when I google, it isn't It's not far away though. I'm going for a lie down

 

however...this place does say it's near the dungeons and it looks a little gem!

you're welcome, 2 courses for a tenner in London is good going too! Have fun! xxx

[Ain't Nobody Here]

Have a good time, Freddie . I bet you don't see any chickens .

[Egluntyne]

A trip on the river is worth doing. Gives a whole new perspective to the city.

[Ygerna]

Have a good time, Freddie . I bet you don't see any chickens .

 

If I had known she was coming this way, it could have been arranged We are going into the city over the next week, as its half term. We are going to do the Museums an galleries, though I have just asked if we might pop to Covent Garden, haven't been there in an age

[kitbag]

I might see you there! I am only going for the day though. We are going to Madame Tussauds, the science musium, covent garden and Harrods!

 

Hope you have fun

[susanbb]

Have a great time. Tell us of your "adventure" when you get back

[Chook n Boo Mum]

Have a brill time Freddie! I've never taken my 2 to London - it scares me rigid! I have to have someone holding my hand at all times, especially on the Tube My friend who commutes (and her daughter ) thinks I'm mad!!

 

Shame the weather wasn't like today last week wasn't it !

If you want some chickens in London go to Hackney City Farm Or take some photos with you.

Bit late to give any tips BUT

 

Staying in Barking????

 

When I was young we used to do a regular Barking Pub Crawl - pop into the Spotted Dog and have a pint of Wallop and a Large Vintage Character for me! Oh happy days!

[chelsea]

have a great time Freddie!

If you go to Hackney City farm, wave at my cockerel! And stop by to say hi to me If you were going to be here on a sunday, I would say Columbia Road Flower market is lovely (and by the farm), but I'm a bit late I'm afraid. You should deffo take a leisurely stroll down the south bank of the river by the national theatres etc, and I can heartily recommend a trip to the globe if it's open for tours.

 

Borough market is fabby for food, and of course portobello road is also fun. The stables markets are brilliant in Camden, I used to practically live there (well actually, I did live there but not in the market, just outside) when I was a student. Of course it's half term, so crazy busy, otherwise I'd suggest a trip to the Houses of parliament. Also jolly good fun, even if you're there for work. I'm so not cool when I have to go, there is gawping a plenty.

Try the amphibus .

 

A bright yellow amphibious vehicle, does a street tour first then drives into the river and returns on the water. Our trip is booked for this summer with my sister and her OH and my niece. It's been on our 'to do' list for yonks and we're finally getting round to it! If you google it you can book online.

 

 

I took the DSs to the Natural History museum last summer, be prepared for queues but the exhibits are just as fab as they were when I used to drag my parents around it every Sunday (in the 1970s, when it was empty every Sunday - sadly now quite the opposite).

 

We spent an entire day there, you can't really do it justice if you are pushed for time. Get there early if you don't want to wait 90 minutes to even get into the dinosaur exhibition .

Another late tip, but could be useful for others.

 

Along from Harrods is the most fantastic Patisserie, a little gem of an eating place for breakfast, lunches and afternoon teas! The cakes and gateaux are works of art in themselves and the staff are so friendly.

 

I think it is called Valerie. Well worth a visit, even if just to gaze at the window display
