Right you laahvly cockerney sparrers. Cor blimey, apples & pears, luvaduck etc.
Having lived in London an exhilarating 30 years, I have resolved to make this the year I get to know it better.
Please can you recommend interesting walks and places to visit in areas that you know very well, because I want to head out with my oyster card and explore. Am taking a day off work every week from now on and I want to see slightly off-the-beaten-track London.
So, if anyone was asking me this question I would recommend walking from Chancery Lane Station, through the Inns of Court at Grays Inn, visit to the Sir John Soane Museum, walk up Doughty Street, quick pop in to the Charles Dickens Museum, Coram's Fields, Brunswick Centre, Russell Square (for eg.).
But there are huge swathes of London I know absolutely nothing about! I've never been to Portobello Road for instance, only been to Camden market a handful of times, don't really know much about West London, SW London, Docklands, East central London just outside the city (eg. Limehouse).
Oh there's tons of places to explore! If you have a favourite walk, little museum or park I should see, then please post.
Thank you
