I'm in if there's a CR meetup. In London I think "tea" might be sometime mid-afternoon between lunch and dinner, up North they call lunch "dinner" and they call dinner "tea", but they're barely still speaking English above Leeds.

I'm not from London (or from the UK) but I've been to London a couple of times and if you're not interested in the same old shopping or visiting an old building thing, I would recommend the natural history museum: http://www.nhm.ac.uk/visit-us/index.html

I'm not the tree hugging nature loving kind, but I was pretty impressed. The building itself is pretty cool to.

Unfortunately not in London tomorrow
However if you going to be near Southbank (where the London eye is) Giraffe is good for lunch and very reasonably priced for London as well http://www.giraffe.net/locations_restaurant.php?id=95

Hi Taylor
I live in London. 3-4 hours not very long in this great city of ours but I'd recommend the following;
Touristy stuff - Take a look around Covent Garden
Culture - Tate Modern & Southbank/Natural History Museum (as recommended above)
Shopping - Oxford/Regent/Carnaby Street area
Cafes/Bars - Soho
Have a good time whatever you do.
