Some of this is super-touristy but still worth doing, I promise!

The V&A. Find an obscure room with no-one else in it.

This adorable frozen yoghurt & muffins place opposite the big HMV in Covent Garden.

Day seats for a musical - I recommend Billy Elliot or Wicked. £25, go on sale 10 am or so at the theatre, be there earlier to queue.

The book fair on the South Bank! Also, you might see the lizards on bikes if you're lucky.

The Globe theatre is really, really cool if you're an English Lit nerd.

The National Gallery, obviously. Skip the 'big' paintings and find a quiet room.

The second hand bookshops (and the HUGE Foyles) on Charing Cross Road.

The free backstage tour of the National Theatre.
