I’ll be in London on Sunday, I have the whole day on my own, the only deadline is to be at Heathrow in the evening.
Any recommendations welcome for things to do, and posh lunch with a view?

Greenwich Maritime museum, Royal Observatory and planetarium.
If your credit or debit card is touch & go use that to travel on tube but make sure you touch in and also out. Dont underestimate how long it will take to get to Heathrow.

Use the Heathrow express not the tube to get to Heathrow. it costs more but is far faster

There's a Ferrari exhibition at the Design Museum in Kensington - on until Sunday. Highly recommended by a Hopmog member who went yesterday.

I second Greenwich , (but I am biased , I live here) but for a posh lunch with a view either the Shard (very expensive though) and the view can be obscured by the clouds and haze , but much better in my opinion is the Oxo Tower on the South Bank.
There are 2 restaurants side by side on the top floor , one is the Brasserie which is better value , the other in the full blown Harvey Nichols job. If expense is no object then go for the latter , but the view is the same from both and the food is excellent in the former. I use it for special occasions.

Prostitute, drugs and a hotel room.. Yes, this would be very much 'the Morgan way'. Don't let the side down.  Alternatively, mooch around Covent Garden.... have a look around Neal Street and Neal's Yard...stroll over towards Piccadilly, check out the Burlington Arcade, Jermyn Street.... Dozens of places for lunch - there are some nice brasseries - a hidden away little place is Giovannis in Covent Garden - central but undiscovered. Or go with the coke and hookers.
