train to london bridge - stroll back (via borough market,look at the "pirate ship", look at the river, pop into tate modern (to slide down the big ramp if nothing else, walk along the south bank looking at stuff, then look at the buskers and the wheel) maybe finish at the fountains in somerset house if its nice weather.


science museum (hands on stuff)


kensington gardens end of hyde park - boat trip and diana playground?


horniman with picnic in the gardens?


boat trip to greenwich and / or mudchute farn visit (lovely cafe)


richmond park (deer!)

I think the Tower of London is a great day out - didn't go for ages because of the cost but you can get deals such as the National Rail 2 for 1 offer. There is so much to see and do, it really is a full day out and you get a unique perspective on the river and Tower Bridge from the walls of the tower. There's a kids' trail and a badge and pencil saying trainee princess/knight. Our kids 6 and 3 loved it.
Just a little note about the Diana playground in Kensington Gardens. It's a really fun place with a huge pirate ship for the kids to clamber around. Please note that the nearest station is Queensway! Don't do what I idiotically did and trek across the whole of Hyde park to get to it, unless of course you want to...

Greenwich for cutty sark, maritime museum, if weekend the market for grown ups and kids play area in the park is quite good.


Kew gardens


St Paul's with walk to the top - lots of steps


Barbican nice for a quiet wander


Green park for obligatory see Buck House and walk down the Mall


Covent garden for street performers

    • I was not suggesting anything else!   I'm not sure how you interpret what I said  as "irrelevant"? I was responding to a post saying that Corbyn was "unelectable". My point was that a  large number  of the electorate  voted for him!
    • that's exactly what happened - Brickhouse were forced to close due to rent hike and then Gail's didn't move in until covid restrictions lifted and normality resumed. Gail's would have opened much sooner as they were lined up and able to offer the landlord much higher rents. Brickhouse was a local favourite
    • The Brickhouse closed just before Covid December 2019. Nothing to do with Gails muscling in as they didn't move into till December 2022. Stop trying to fit a false narrative into a story
    • Very specific I know! For our daughter who has just finished Year I2. There are many tutors advertising but would really like recommendations. I was going to post on the Tutoring sub board but there appears to be very little traffic there. Feel free to call or text 07342 059948  Many thanks
