Help! Sunday night in London - need ideas

I will be in London on a Sunday night. What would be fun to do? Hard to find things that are open.

Most everything in the West End/Covent Garden areas will be open.

Here are a couple walks going on:

Guess I should clarify - some shops may be open in those areas early evening, but there should be pubs and restaurants open.

<i>Hard to find things that are open.</i>

You are kidding, right?

I'm sure that there are establishments in Soho that are open...24 hours, probably.

There's loads to do in central London on a Sunday night! (Any night, actually.) Have a look at Time Out's new 101 best things to do in London guide...there's loads of ideas in that to keep you going. Restaurants, pubs, theatres, clubs:

The main problem on Sundays is that many theatres are closed. However there are a number that do have performances - but some will be matinee (afternoon) only.

Do what a Londoner would do – pick up a copy of the magazine TimeOut London when you arrive – there will be literally thousands of things going on that night.

alanRow - I don't want to be picky, but if you actually look at the link you posted [same as mine above] you will see that there are 42 theatres open on a sunday.

I would say that "many theatres are open"

or, as i also said already, there's always Soho.
