  • Oooh I'm so jealous - I wanna come but can't justify the cost on my £20 a week budget - if anyone spots any 99p train/flights from edinburgh - just lemme know.

    I'd love to meet you all and if it wasn't for money, I'd have suggested it sooner! Especially want to wish ms_london bon voyage!

    Me too!! I live in Yorkshire, but all my family are in London, so if I can arrange a visit to coincide, it would be fab.

    A picnic in Hyde Park/Kensington Palace Gardens, or Holland Park might be nice?

    Last time I stopped off in Hyde Park for a sit down in a deck chair as I was knackered pushing the pushchair all the way from Nottinghill Gate, I got collared by a guy telling me I had to pay! I'm sure they used to be free :confused: ?

  • Sounds like an idea (can't do march though).

    May I suggest the British Museum? It's free and I know a place nearby (practically opposite forbidden planet) where you can get a decent 2 course lunch for £10, or if you walk a bit further towards piccaddilly (next to woman in white) there's the pizza hut lunchtime buffet offer - is it 6.99ish?
    Still wish I could buy a TARDIS instead of a house!

    I visit London every other weekend so if it coincides with one of those visits I would like to go.

  • I am up for this! Sounds good to me.

    And yes, we should pick a month and a location.
