Your best flirty pick up line?

Excuse me, but I've been over by the bar running some numbers, and I believe that through combining our genes, we could create a faster, stronger, smarter super-soldier for our country. Now, there remains only one way to actually create this super-soldier, but in this time of national emergency, we have all been called upon to exert ourselves to new heights. Therefore, not for me, but for America, the cause of freedom calls upon you to go home with me tonight.

My most fav:

Yer face reminds me of a wrench,

every time I think of it, my nuts tighten up.

Is that a ladder in your tights? Well its my stairway to heaven baby!

How about you sit on my lap and we'll talk about the first thing that pops up?

If you was a tree & I was a Squirrel,

I'd store my nuts in your hole.

I will be going to London this summer. What are some interesting sites there?

I will be going to London this summer. What are some interesting sites there?

OK - I am from London and often show visiting people around... here are my top tips:

Day 1.

Buy a day pass for a Bus Tour. Spend the day touring around the city to get a feel for the place. You will at least see all the best tourist sites and can plan the rest of your time.

There are many to choose from, but this is as good as any:

...

In the evening - go to the West End and see a show.

Day 2. Westminster.

Catch the tube (underground) to Westminster. Visit Parliament. You can book a tour:

...

Come out of Parliament and visit Westminster Abbey (directly opposite).

Leave Westminster Abbey and walk down Whitehall towards Trafalgar Square. Walk through the heart of British Government.

Visit The Churchill War Bunkers (secret bunker under Downing Street where Sir Winston Churchill ran the war during bombing raids. This is a MUST - a fantastic way to spend a few hours):

Continue walking down Whitehall. Look at Downing Street (through the security railings). Directly opposite Downing Street is the Red Lion Pub - pop in for a drink - it's used by all the Members of Parliament - you never know who you will be standing next to.

Continue walking down Whitehall. Pass Horseguards Parade and walk on to Trafalgar Square. If you have time visit the National Portrait Gallery.

Day Three:

Culture Day... catch the tube to South Kensington.

Visit the Victoria and Albert Museum in the morning.

Ten minute walk to Harrods - go to the Creperie on Floor 3 for a light lunch. Have a look around the store - the Food Hall is a must. Go the Fine Jewells and look at all the vulgar people with far too much money and too little style.

Afternoon: If you have the energy - try the Natural History Museum (next door to the V&A):

Walk back through Knightsbridge looking at London's top shops.

Day 4:

Something different. Go back to Westminster and walk down to the Thames by Westminster Bridge. Catch a Thames River Cruise to Greenwich.

...

See London from the River. The trip is about 1 hour.

Get off at Greenwich - traditional home of the British Royal Navy and also the Royal Observatory and the Greenwich Time Line. Marvel at the historic grandeur of the waterfront buildings.

Visit the Cutty Sark (right outside the ferry terminal)

...

Walk through the town center. Poke around Greenwich Market (best day is Sunday but OK any time).

...

Walk over Greenwich Common and up the hill to the Royal Observatory.

Step on (literally) the Time Line (the line that sets world time and separates the Eastern and Western hemospheres).

if you are there at mid-day watch the "Time Ball" falling - a great big golden ball that slides down a pole on top of the Royal Observatory at 12noon EVERY day - it was erected in Queen Victoria's time to indicate the precise time to the Ships Captains all anchored on the River Thames below.

Catch the ferry back towards Westminster. Jump off at Tower Bridge and if you have time visit the Tower of London and see the Crown Jewells.

Finally catch the Ferry back to Westminster.

Day 5:

So much still to do and see - 5 days isn't long enough:

Go to the South Bank of the Thames (Most of the main attractions are North of the River - but the South Bank is worth a visit too).

Book tickets for the London Eye - the massive Ferris Wheel opposite Parliament. Magnificent views 26 miles across the city.

Walk along the Thames back towards Tower Bridge. Stop for lunch in Hays Gallaria - a fantastic converted dry dock on the Thames.

PM: too much to choose from and so little time? Buckingham Palace / Kensington Palace / Covent Garden / St Pauls Cathederal / Bohemian Soho...

There you are - we have just scratched the surface, but if you follow the above you will see a good selection of what my wonderful home city has to offer.

I hope you have a fantastic time in London.
