Ok Londoners, this is the second time I’ll visit your city and I’m a bit lazy and I can’t decide what to see this time, so any suggestion (from anyone) is well received. I arrive on Monday just in time to see a concert at the Scala and I leave on Wednesday, so I only have Tuesday morning/afternoon (just before THE great concert at Dingwalls) to visit something.

Which are the must-see locations or the most beautiful and interesting places to see in your opinion? Non typical tourist places are accepted too (record shops…)

Thanks in advance.

fopp on camden high street, my favourite record shop.

a walk round covent garden would be nice on a warm day..some good street acts take place.

covent garden and trafalguar square have always been a favourite of mine.

the southbank….. I LOVE walking down the southbank. plus the london eye is there

Hmmn yes we may need something to do as well, depends if we’re just gonna do Camden on the Tuesday.

Wednesday is the estate agent trek…oh yes.

talking of treks….
what are the surefire directions from the tube to the venue?
....as if i rememebr there are a billion entrances so where so i need to go?! i keep getting lost.

Oh yes, how exactly do we get there. Coz i’ll be the one wandering around looking stupid and lost.

Well, the venue site seems pretty helpful.  here’s a bit of info.  And is this helpful?

Thanks a lot for all the replies. I’ll see you there… you know my face and surely I’ll wear a Statistics, Dredg or Editors t-shirt at the concert so it’ll be a pleasure to meet you if you want. I need to improve my English lol

Last post before the show. Spanish army is on the way…

Yep *nods*

Coming up out of Camden tube, take the right exit (you’ll find yourself on Chalk Farm Road), then just keep walking right.  It goes uphill a bit, there’s the bridge over the canal, then cross the road and you should find yourself at the point where you can follow that map on the Dingwalls site

what entrance is it?! ha ill stop asking questions soon….(someone better let me see them so i know where i am going haha)

Hehe. We did get a bit lost and had to ask about 3 people before finding it! Our own fault for not finding out the way first.

Do any of you guys know about Google Map?  It’s really handy, you can use it to plot the quickest route from one destination to the other.  Print it off and it’s the most straightforward map you could bring with you.
