Are you going to be there during the day, or are you only free during the night hours?

What time in November? Some of the Christmas events will be up and running in the parks, or possibly ice skating at Somerset House or Greenwich etc.

It's our Capital city, what do you like? If you like it, there's probably somewhere to do it in London!

Mid November 16th/17th

When are the lights switched on in Oxford Street ?

Are there Christmas markets (to avoid lol)

I'm going to be at LSE, so hopefully staying central

That's hard, being a weekday and all. I'll leave it to the non-tourists to answer. Sorry!

"Thanks Joe, sounds like a plan, apart from the sauna "

But seriously, what are you after/where are you staying?

I can recommend all over town, if you want.

No hotel booked as yet, as I'm still tbc on the speaker list

Generally looking for somewhere to get out and have some entertainment rather than stare at hotel bedroom walls.

Just looking to be inspired

Well, as I always say, if you can't find what yr looking for in London you're not trying hard enough.

But a location for you is important - you don;t want to waste half your night on public transport or rushing to find a Tube before it closes or forking out for a cab &c &c...

Work out where you're staying and it gets much easier.

What's your time frame, ie how long have you got, what times of day/night?

Probably going to try and stay South Bank/ Waterloo area.

Get in around 6pm and up til midnight at latest (I do have to think a bit about work !)

Rather not do the usual Piccadily/ Leicester Sq/ Covent Garden/ China Town stuff

It's gonna be heaving when you get in. Dump yr bags and see if there's anywhere along the way you fancy to eat, if not head for Southbank and eat there. Plent of restaurants - Wagamama's is ok if you like noshing Japanese food in a canteen style atmosphere.

You could get the water ferry from W'loo to Bankside and start with the Tate Modern (open 'till 10pm Fri&Sat)...

Then walk your way back...

All depends...

C'mon we can do much better than a chain restaurant!

OP, when you know where you're staying drop me a line and I'll give you a bespoke guide for your short stay.
