• Art on the Underground's latest project is a booklet of crosswords called The Answer Lies At The End of The Line. In this case the line is the Jubilee and the end is Stanmore, and that's where you'll find all the solutions painted onto the ceiling, as well as some cruciverbalist artwork. [I've been, and it's sort of nicely done, but it's probably not worth making a special effort to go] [just download the crosswords and fill them in when you get bored]
• I don't ride a bike, but if I did I'd want to buy 50 Quirky Bike Rides, which is a collection of unique and bizarre cycle routes from across the UK. [check out the book's contents list, complete with maps and photos] [podcast here]
• London Open House isn't until mid-September, but it's never too early to reserve yourself an Annual Event Guide so that you can book a place on the rare must-see tours. [guide due to be published in mid-August]
• Chart anoraks will enjoy James Masterton's Chart Watch - a weekly dissection of the Top 40 singles, now with added ability-to-comment. [yes, some people do still care]
• Keep an eye on the latest UK newspaper headlines with Chipwrapper - what's each paper's leading story right now? [includes combined RSS feed]
