    Basically, I have an 8,5 hour layover in London, and I want to see some attractions. I'd like to go to the London Eye, Madame Tussauds, and the Sherlock Holmes museum, but do I have enough time? I suspect that I won't be able to leave the airport until about an hour after landing, and I need to be back and hour and a half-two hours before my flight departs. According to Google Maps it takes about two hours to get to and from Heathrow, so I'll be left with about 4 hours in London itself (minus about 20 minutes to get to Madame Tussauds).

    D'you guys think I have enough time for that, or should I knock something off the list?

    No, 8 hours isn't enough. I suppose you could go look at the London Eye but don't bother trying to get on it. You'd probably be there for about 6 hours waiting in a queue for a half an hour ride of nothingness.

    I'd say you really only have time for Madame Tussauds or the Sherlock Museum, not both. Either way you're gonna be pushing yourself for time.

    I know nothin of London, aside that those sound very fancy-ish?... and that you really need a clockwork time watch.
