    Taking someone who's never been.

    Where should I take her, other than the normal, touristy places?

    Manchester is better.

    Take her up Cadbury Canal street, or summat.

    I've just created a representation of the Prophet Muhammed out of Danish bacon.
    Will the Muslimites shoot me?

    Take her up the London Eye!

    I think that's a euphemism!

    Really? Comedy Police?

    Are they like proper coppers - but a bit spacky?
    PC Deacon - walking like a Joey & dribbling down himself?

    They sound great.
    Do you have the number for them?

    I know.

    I blame it on the illegal immigrants.

    What do you mean by "these days"?
    I assumed I'd always been *****.

    Is probably not what you're expecting. Discount shoe shops and clothes shops- nothing like what it would have been in the 60s. Certain amount of nostalgia, but you'll have a much better time up Camden. Plus there's loads of good venues so you might catch a good band on- see www.barfly.co.uk.</p>

    West end/Soho is also nice, around Wardour St.</p>

    Nice down by the river, St Pauls and then over the wonky Millenium Bridge to the Tate Modern. Plenty of places for a drink/coffee by the river. Especially if its mild weather.</p>

    Plenty of restaurant discounts on www.toptable.co.uk if you're eating out- you'll find 2 for 1s and other good deals on there and budgets to suit all wallets.</p>
