This is our last full day in old London town as tomorrow we head off to York. So far today we've found ways to avoid the excessive fees charged by the bus tour groups and that is by creating your own bus tour. Just purchase for yourself a travel card or even better oyster card and hop on and off as many red buses as you like for £2.20. That's a saving of £24 per person. Oh and who needs to go into Westminster Abbey for £32 when you can go next door to St Margarets for free. I am starting to sound like a tight arse now.

Heading out later tonight to walk the dark back streets on a jack the ripper walk....can't wait.
