I had my old uni mates come to stay this week. We had two days in London, and as the only Londoner the pressure was all on me to work out how to spend our time. Now London's not exactly short on things to do and places to go, but when you're all students/unemployed bums, it's a bit of a challenge to be entertained on a budget.
As it turned out, we had an awesome time - wandering around Borough food market, flying kites in Kenwood, hot chocolates in cheap little cafes that aren't Starbucks, and, the best bit, ice skating at the Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park courtesy of Oyster 2 for 1 deals. Seriously, I think the Oyster deals are my new favourite thing (since I discovered Dairy Milk Shortcake that is) - it's great to be able to do loads of cool stuff in London on the cheap. Plus you get to say "the world is our oyster" a lot, which, worryingly, never fails to amuse me.
