[Sca-cooks] OT: Visiting London

[tudorpot at gmail.com]

My suggestions- eat lunch in pubs- some very good food,
take the tube into London if you arrive at Heathrow
go to the West End and attend a show-cheap tickets are available
wander along the Thames by Westminister-wandering will give you time to 
reflect and absorb- it's also a lovely view
