Get yourself an Oyster Card, avoid paying cash for any mode of Public Transport, and use the buses rather than the tube whenever poss - best for getting familiar with the city (though walking is always best but maybe save that for a bit).

What area you moving to exactly?

'bout bloody time too. East London seems to be where it's at at the mo, with most new venues springing up there. North London's good. West London's a waste of time. South London's only good if you want to buy a house otherwise you'll spend all your time travelling to go anywhere. Maybe we need a welcome Simon to the Smoke SXP meet-up soon?

East London is fab.

:-)

Buses are best for getting to know the City. Oytser card, a must. Those Sam Smith pubs are good for cheap ale.

I love the pub in Mile End by the canal, it is GOLD inside.

I also second the Victoria for music. The George Tavern isn't far away too.
