Paid Members PunkStep Posted July 20, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted July 20, 2012 Christ, a couple of days- that's quite pressuring to come up with something for you to do. I'm nearly 30 and have been to London hundreds of times and there's still shit load of things I haven't done and places I haven't been to. Â So on that note, you should definitely get a Lithuanian whore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 I shall be going to that London next weekend, I'm going to see the Edvard Munch exhibition at Tate Modern and Grayson Perry's Vanity Of Small Difference at the Miro. Plenty of stuff like that if that's your thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Burchill's Buddy Posted July 20, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted July 20, 2012 Just be aware that it's pretty crazy at the moment, I had a walk along the south bank on Wednesday and couldn't believe how many temporary structures and things were going up for the games. Worst of all, my favourite pub, the Mug House, off Tooley St under London Bridge, is closed for 2 weeks while they turn it into a Swiss themed pub for the Olympics. (the Swiss team must be staying in that area, as there's a temporary studio and Swiss radio bus parked next door. Bastards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You should contact him on here. World class. (the joke, not the service) Â If you're a James Bond fan I recommend the Designing James Bond exhibition at the Barbican.

the_project Posted July 20, 2012 Share Posted July 20, 2012 Priceless London Wonderground  I'm going to a Freakshow style thing later in August but they've got a load of weird shows going on throughout July and August  Rooftop Film Club  It's in Hoxton so you might think it's going to be silent, black and white films. But nothing too arty, they show films like Big Lebowski, Ghostbusters etc on the rooftop of a pub where you can drink and smoke...heaven! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Jaffa Posted July 21, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted July 21, 2012 The OP didn't specify when exactly he was in London but if it's next month the BFI are having a Hitchcock season. Â Some find it dull, but I love The London Transport Museum. It contains several classic carriages, lot's on photos and documentation of the development of London's transport network and a tube driving console (it's surprisingly difficult to park a tube train). If you're into history and engineering it's definately worth a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
