    for starters, ITS VERY FRIGGIN EXPENSIVE
    You can do London on the somewhat cheap if you avoid the fancy restaurants and exclusive clubs ... and at ANY cost, avoid the taxi

    did i mention it IS expensive - no way around it, i know of a couple great restaurants if you're interested (not brit food).
    the tube works well & is easy to navigate. use it. mind the gap.
    the women are refreshingly not fat
    the cab drivers speak english.
    some great architecture (it was founded by the romans after all)
    lost of historical sites worth seeing- westminster abbey houses (in their final resting places) a virtual 'who's who' of brittania over the last millenium. a make sure you go.
    british museum is impressive and FREE! (all brit museums are free).
    great walking city - nice & flat, lots of bridges and you're usually close to the tube.
    nice parks. (st. james comes to mind)

    overall it's like a smaller, older euro version of NYC (at least there are many similarities)
