Re: Top things to do before you go..
We've just doe Eurodisney with the kids - trust us to pick the coldest start to March in living memory :scared: Snow everwhere and temperature mostly below or around freezing. Mind you it did mean that instead of queing 30 mins for a ride it would be nearer 30 secs!
Have fun with all the things you want to do - a few on our list include
London Eye
London sites in general so the kids can say they've been there
Visits to relatives/friends etc
London Triathlon (for me - before I am too old
)
Short breaks to Europe/New York?
Alastair

Re: Top things to do before you go..
Well, we`re leaving 1st of June. Just checked out when Meatloaf is on and we`ll be in Perth by the time he starts... otherwise would have liked to see him at Leeds Castle (next door to us).
We have decided to do this before we go:
London Eye.
Natural History Museum.
British Museum.
Tower of London.
Shaftesbury (to see my wife`s nan`s grave for the last time... our daughter is named after her).
Bath.
plus off to central France for 4 days in a couple of weeks.
If anyone get`s the chance, go to Rome before leaving this hemisphere.... cheap Ryanair flight and decent-price accom. Nothing compares to the Forum and many other sights of Rome. We were sick with Gastro (caught in the UK) for most of our 5 days but managed to get a day and a bit in at least.
Otherwise Carcassonne (southern France) is a must-see as well.
