London is the capital of cool, as well as being the capital of iconic attractions. I don’t think that any other city in the world can have as many famous buildings, places and attractions as there are scattered all over London. I know that when many tourists come to London, there are certain attractions, sights or places that are a must visit on virtually everyone’s list. People have seen them featured countless...

There is nothing quite like escaping the buzz and mayhem of London and Hampstead Heath in particular is a  great place to do this. The other day when I was wandering around the Heath, enjoying the natural beauty of the place, I accidentally caught a couple of beautiful girls enjoying the sunshine, honest. London and especially Hampstead Heath is such a great place to laze around at on a sunny day with few a...

I was sitting on the tube the other day, when I picked up one of those free daily London  newspapers, which are usually as interesting as the price that they cost. But occasionally and I mean very occasionally they help to pass the time on a long and boring journey. I came across a section in a rag that was called The Docklands and a featured article called “The Single Life” with Tracey Tarling and Ben...

The River Thames, which the lower reaches of flow through London, England is one of the best known rivers on the planet, it must surely be regarded as the cities greatest asset. It is a place that has supported human activity for thousands of years as a source of food, habitation, drink, power and water. The Thames is the second longest river in the UK, of which only a small part actually runs through London....

 The London Eye or the Millennium Wheel as it is sometimes also known is the most popular paid for tourist attraction in not only London, but in the whole of Europe. It was formally opened by the then Prime Minister Tony Blair on the 31st December 1999, but it was not opened to the public until March 2000. Which was a great shame because it was meant to be open in time to celebrate the new millennium, you just...

One of London’s most iconic and historic tourist attractions is  the Cutty Sark,  which  is the only surviving tea clipper in the world. The Cutty Sark, which was launched in Dumbarton in Scotland in 1869 and  travelled between Britain and the Orient transporting tea. The Cutty Sark is permanently moored at King William Walk, Greenwich in London. The ship was built for a John “White Hat”...

Serena Williams won 3 titles at this years 2009 Wimbledon tennis tournament in London, she was female singles champion, female doubles champion with her older sister Venus and she also picks up the award for the sexiest lady of the championship. In my mind Serena Williams is a Goddess, she has an amazing body, is extremely pretty, with an amazing smile and above all else, I feel that she comes across as having...

For anybody looking to rent a property in London, whether it is a room, flat, apartment, or house you have to do so with your eyes wide open.

I have put together a list of my own personal favourite famous London Quotes. I feel that the quotations that I have chosen, actually make sense and that I can relate to them. My own personal favourite quotation is number 4, which was created by the English poet William Shenstone and he perfectly sums up life in London using only   seven  simple words, which for me has a deeper meaning than just merely...

My first posting on Accidentally London, will feature the legendary punk band The Clash performing live at Hackney’s Victoira Park in April 1978 in front of, over 100,000 people. The concert was part of a Rock Against Racism concert, which was basically a movement at the time that was making a stand against the xenophobia and racisam fulled by oranisatons like the National Front. I feel it is a sad reflection...
