Covent Garden is a very entertaining place. If you find yourself in London, I recommend going there on a Sunday morning while the rest of the city sleeps (some of the shops don't open until 11.30 a.m.).
The market is well worth a look, but it's the eccentric jugglers and other street entertainers who never fail to impress.
The first one I saw last Sunday was a man who insisted on stripping off nearly everything before juggling with three knives as he wobbled around on a tall ladder.

Next up was a man who seemed to specialise in singing On the Street Where You Live amid a deserted outdoor cafe. The back of his T-shirt bore the legend: 'CDs £10'.
The next juggler started by balancing her ladder on her chin. Then she dragged four volunteers from the crowd to hold the ladder upright with ropes before running through a short gymnastic display. The act concluded with some upside down juggling.
