Have been away from london for long..too long really. Miss london more than any other place in the universe!!! So much, so much to do in london. London has every thing concievable!
I'm a Londoner who's lived abroad for 18 years, but come every summer with by boys. This list has given me some great ideas. Thanks.
No doubt in my mind that London Town is the best place on the earth...so much to do and see. Fantastic list, and how nice to see the obvious things are not on it! Im def planning on hitting the fish market at dome obsurd hour soon....
just moved out of london after four years and im missin it! oh how i love london......
Suprised that the Bloomsbury Bowling Lanes is not featured. Everyone should have at least one night at this place
Green Lanes kebab from Manor House to Turnpike Lane? Why not to the North Circular, just south of Palmers Green?
I DON' T KNOW WHAT TO DO IN LONDON?
Cool list, and to ignorant person who left neg comment about gay bowling, maybe its for gay people who love bowling and want to meet other gay people and socialise....duhhhh! I think its a cool idea.
