Sunday boredom in London

zebracow

Good morning everyone,

I'm in London and bored to bits after Eurovision last night and feeling that this weekend will just be a dragger.

Anyone have any ideas ?

How can you be bored in London. So much to see and do. I love a good walk along the Thames. Don't need money for that, take a packed lunch.

Go to the London Dungeon, plenty of thrills in that, and you can learn some history too.

Columbia Road Flower Market then walk to City Farm for a fry up

Good Idea

Being a Londoner I don't appreciate what's on the doorstep so I think I might just do the tourist stuff

Bored in London :smileysurprised: If you can't find anything do to, then I can't help you.

I usually find Sundays boring not even quite sure why really, Sundays can be boring wherever you are. I'm not suffering from the after effects of Eurovision though I don't watch TV/crap. I only heard of it mentioned on the radio earlier this morning so I turned it off.

If you really want to be bored go on the London eye other then that there’s loads to do have a great day

It was crap that's why I'm bored. Because it's still on all the media

When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life

Red Gates, Highgate Cemetery,

An old game I invented..

Pick any twenty animals, real or imaginary, and stroll round London, ticking off, Bingo Style, first one to see one claims it play it with friends, last to find them all pays for coffee and cake.

Dragons guarding the City

Elephants in pub names or streets, Jaguars on car bonnets, bees in shop window designs...Badges, t shirts, anywhere.

"When a man (or woman, to bring things up to date) is tired of London, he is tired of life, for there is in London everything that life can afford". Samuel Johnson.

He should know. He was from Lichfield!

That's an excellent game @kenralph and it's surprising just how many things you never noticed once you start looking.

@majorincident

Thanks.

It was devised because my daughter and her friends had "nothing to do"

So I came up with it one rainy day, we spent ages making the bingo cards, making animal tiles, bloomin' scores and scores of them, then used a shoebox to store them in.

Twenty tiles chosen at random, written on a card, then thrown back into the box, it's great when 4 kids all have a wombat to find! Only the first one can claim it.

I really wish I could write code, I'd make an app

@davidevans0000, I don't know about Malcolm House, but I have yet to visit Dennis Severs's house in Folgate Street. Someday, someday.

Plenty of photographic subjects around London, probably good for geocaching as well 😉
