Some of the most fun days out in London that we enjoyed came from ideas in the London fun magazine we carried around in the bottom of a bag! - it weighed a lot less than a laptop! Monty Python's Spamalot Day, great free live music and not so free ethnic food and fashion at Africa Day, and the atmosphere of the Russian Winter Festival all provided fun times, pictures and memories. We collected them all on this other site.
We also got first notice of advance events and exhibitions, and so often benefited from first refusal of popular tickets for other events. The London weather vagaries didn't beat us either, as with a listings magazine on-hand during the day, we could change our plans and jump on the tube for a walk in Hyde Park if the weather brightened or to an indoor attraction like the Tate Modern art gallery if it turned nasty.
