Hi All,

My fiance and I have got next week of work and would like to go on a few day trips out and about around London anf the South East (we live in East Sussex).

Can anyone recommend any good days out?

After lunch take walk to Tooley Street (10 minutes) and go to London Dungeons. Great facts from London's dark history

Evening.

Tube to the West End, Leicester Sq.

Either buy some cheap tickets from the tout stalls to a show or go to the Comed Club. Have a drink whilst you wait.

Finish show and have a fish and chip supper from numerous outlets.

Walk to Victoria or catch the tube.

Catch the 00.05 train to Brighton.

Enjoy!!!!!

Don't think so Knobbles. Why?

[tiggerblue10]

I'm not. I was talking to Bewley Bros (Wardy) aka Abdulmajid. Well I hope BB is AM anyway unless I've got the wrong end of the stick!

Hey guys! How organised are you hehe you have planned the days down to a tee!! We quite fancy the london dungeon and we are both quite interested in murderers etc (in a non psycotic way lol!!) so will probably go to the Jack the Ripper exhibition too.

Weather permitting London Eye is something I have wanted to do for ages too.

It is really helpful of you to provide some names of places to grab a bite, so often you go somewhere you are not completely familiar with and end up just going to a chain fast food place and you dont know what else to do. The Pie and Mash place sounds awesome - my fave meal, never tried eels but I will give them a go!!

Sorry to hear you nearly fell overboard knobbs! If it makes you feel better - a few years ago I was on a boat trip from bournmouth to the isle of wight, it was so rough at sea that everyone was being sick. I was fine, sitting at the back and loving looking over the edge of the boat at the waves but a boy at the front of the boat chucked up over the edge and the wind was so strong it blew it back and straight into me!! ew!! I had to spend the majority of the day covered in sick!

Thanks again guys, you been really helpful x
