Places and things to do in London

Hello, coming over to the city at the end of april( Opeth gig).

Any recommendations concerning places to see. I was there last 10 years ago and saw the main attractions.

Some ideas:

Nice areas to go for a walk
Good record stores
Little interesting shops
Book stores
Darkness clothing
museums
Foodstores...

i went there for a week the summer before last. i shopped every day, and that's it. it was a nice week ^^
oh, i also sat on this sight-seeing bus... where you could get off where you wanted... but i never did, it was too damn hot.

remember though: if they ask 'you want chips with that?'
you might get actual chips... as in:
that is all

enjoy

You're thinking of America. Here chips are 'fries' and crisps are what those things are^.

You prolly just wanna hang around Camden.


Well, for pubs that play metal / clothes shops / cd stores / extreme variety in food anyway.

Not really museums that I know of in Camden, need head down near Thames for that. As far as bookshops go I don't really know but prolly around West End so take tube to Tottenham Court Road.

That too. We invented the language, what we call chips/fries ARE chips... crisps are as pictured above :P

is the word "fries" understood anywhere in the UK? i mean if i go there i'd probabily not think about saying "chips" instead of "fries"...

Yeah of course it's understood, just most people think lolamerica when it's said . Macdonalds is probably the only place where it's used commonly.
