Hands down my favourite pub in London. Go for the day.

The Party Superstore was/is my absolute favourite London shop until it was bizarrely attacked and gutted during the summer London riots. They have been since adopted as a concession by the local Debenhams but you can still savour the full delights of the products and nonsense on line.

I rediscovered this place recently having not been for years and now I keep returning. The geological galleries are my favourites.

On a hot day there is nothing better to do in London then go for a swim in the Heath ponds. You get completely transported you out of the city as Hampstead feels like being in the countryside except you're in central London?!

Go check out this very untypical gallery in the underground. You don't need a ticket and it does only take you a second to soak in the art displayed.
