Default Weekend in London

So I am going on a two week business trip to London and will have a weekend free in between (Dec.1-2.) Any suggestions on something fun to do? If it matters, I will be staying near the Farringdon tube and rail station.

That's it! Thanks. Do they just hang out around the stadium like in the US or is there a specific place to go?
