Much nicer, smaller, cheaper and there is a great Ghanain food stall there or you can have a fabulous crepe. Go to My Life In Art and see the new exhibition from The Little Artists which opens tomorrow (I think). Then head in to town and do all of the stuff everyone else has suggested.

Where a stab jacket like the rest of us at all times and don't leave the safety of your hotel room without your man bag and your mace. Don't look no-one in the eye and if anyone says 'have you got the time mate' just keep walking and don't look back. And if you are unfortunate to catch someones eye by mistake and they smile at you, don't smile back, they are probably dangerous!
Apart from those great tips, Enjoy London ;D ;D ;D

It can be found at 10 Woburn Walk. WC1.
Stolenspace is at Dray Walk, The Old Truman Brewery, 91 Brick Lane. E1 0207 2472684

Thanks for that. Some really nice prints there, especially like this one by Lilya Corneli
Forster Gallery is not open at weekends. I made that mistake a couple of weeks ago!

(Old streeet tube stn) walk to Leonard st (11 show) then Bimble down to Stolen Space at Trueman Brewery,See Banksys spitfire car on the way in, little further to Dan Baldwins show (Fashion st). On tube (Algate tube stn) Off tube at Tot court road, Round to Laz's. I agree with above Andipa is a must for any Banksy fan, well worth a visit (Knightsbrige), Ive never seen so many Banksys all in one place.
The big one must be the Tate modern on the Bank (A must) and on the way out have a nose in Eyestorm.
If you need any direction or details on tubes etc PM me and I will email you.

There are lots of great curry houses on Brick Lane, a similar number of bad ones too. Standard Balti has never dissapointed, if you want something really special check out Tayyabs, about 10 mins walk from Brick Lane. The food is absurdly cheap and without doubt the best curry I've had in town.

the council - or clear channel should do the right thing and uncover the Happy Choppers - with the rep banksy has now it'd be like a national treasure - everyone would stop - it's next to a nice little square where you could sit and look at it too - as it is you can see a tiny bit
is it 'nice day' or 'have a nice day' you can just see on it?
I think this is one of Banksys best
