London for the 1st time in dec

My advice is to try and visit as many of the free attractions as you can, such as Tate Modern, Science Museum, Changing the Guard and Westminster Abbey. There's lots of things happening all year round in London's South bank; free events, exhibitions, debates and festivals. If you're set on visiting the attractions with admission fees then work out if it's worth investing in a London Pass. These aren't cheap but if you cram as many of the 50 free attractions in as you can, you should save money..

Perhaps it's a clever way to bag the domain name www.scunthorpetravelodge.com and sell it to the hotel chain Travel Lodge group for a large charity payment if accused of cybersquatting! PS. The domain name listed above is actually available - I checked! PPS. There *is* a travelodge in Scunthorpe!.

There are also some other famous landmarks in London where you can go ice skating outdoors during the Christmas and New Year period. Hampton Court Palace, Hyde Park, Kew Gardens, the Natural History Museum and Somerset House should all have rinks during the festive season..
