Sorry, got plans already.

Pfft, no I can't :P. (It was actually right next to the motel I stayed at last time I was in London. I walked to Canary wharf instead to save the quid :P)

The Maritime museum is sweet, and the attached Royal Observatories are even better. Of course, I'm saying that as an astronomer who would have joined the Navy if I wasn't disabled.

Then get yourself to Greenwich ASAP ! If possible, arrive by boat :-)

Don't forget to visit Cutty Sark, or go and visit HMS Belfast for me...
