Alone in London - suggestions?

I will be alone for one night in London on July 7. I have been there
many times, but never alone. Anyone have any suggestions on something
interesting to do in the evening - night? Theater is a no brainer, but
its not really my cup of tea.

Thanks in advance . . . .

I would just walk around with an unobtrusive camera (no flash)
and take some photos by resting the camera on walls and so on.
But that's me. I think I might also just tackle it head on and do
what I would do normally, find a decent restaurant, but take a
magazine and have a nice meal.

Do whatever you would do if you weren't alone.

Well, any time of the year, London is busy, but it will be thronging
with crowds then. You won't feel alone! If people watching is your
thing, you could do worse than just meandering around Piccadilly Circus,
Leicester Square, Covent Garden, and so on. Lots of street performers
then too. If you could be more specific about what is your "cup of tea"
then you might get more specific suggestions. Quite a few museums and
galleries have late openings- though July 7 is a Saturday, maybe not
then. (Tate Modern is open until 10pm on Saturdays though.) The Proms
are on then too- which are always worth going to- even if you aren't a
particular fan of classical music- the prom experience is fun for a lot
of people.

Take one of the walking pub tours:
you meet new people
you get to see 4-5 interesting pubs
you get to drink 4-5 interesting beers
you might even end up getting married to one of the new people

Proms actually start 16/7/04, so you'll miss them, sadly. But there
are plenty of other solo options.

i've no idea if there is any that particular evening, but greyhound racing
is a traditional-east-end kinda thing and often held at night...there's a
big track at walthamstow, iirc, which may well have a website.

How about one of the many London Walks? Schedules in the
Time Out or (I think) on the web.

What, are you trying to scare him off the trip altogether?

Good idea. I don't think they are in Time Out (at least I cant
find them), but there are loads of websites.
