Cheap things to do in London

Timalay

I'm going to see a show in London on the 20th, and staying overnight.  Can anyone recommend free or cheap things in London in the morning/mid-day that is cheap or free?

Help us narrow things down a bit 

Whereabouts in London will you be arriving /staying ?
and what sort of things interest you ? (Museums, shops, outdoor spaces, markets, touristy etc ?)....

If if you give us a clue of the area and what kind of things you like we might be able to make a personal recommendation.

Science Museum is always my go-to place for a free few hours.

I'll be staying overnight at the Hub Hotel in Marylebone, but my train back home will be from Liverpool Street.  So I guess around those two places.  I am flexible with what I can go to, not overkeen on nightclubs, but it being the morning/early afternoon I can't see that being a big problem. Lol

The sky garden is good and you might be able to get a free ticket.
the Wellington arch isn’t free but if you get there at the right time you can be at the top when the blues & royals (or the other lot cant quite remember) go right underneath on their horses.

if you like shopping then I’d go to Covent Garden, there may well be a street performer there.

Tate Modern if you like modern art.

What about Spitalfields Market?  I'd be looking for a bit to eat for lunch before heading home and I see that's close to Liverpool Street.

Book early, take id and prepare to have your bag searched etc.

Looks like the Sky Garden is fully booked for that Sunday.

I'm quite into science and technology if that's any help.
