By Steph Dye (follow Steph on Twitter: @HelloIAmSteph)
Things seem to be hotting up and it’s beginning to feel as though summer is on the way In the spirit of that, we’ve taken things outside and found a variety of things to do at the weekend that won’t leave you cooped up inside (although there are a couple of things to do inside – we can’t rely on the British weather that much!) So plan ahead, get a few things in the planner and make the most of the cheap things to do in London. (Now let’s just hope the weather holds!)
