Must see in London is the the Tower, hands down. See a play in the west end. The British Museum is great if you want to see the Rosetta Stone and the friezes from the Parthenon.

I did 5 days in London with 11 in Ireland and felt rushed the whole time.

In Dublin see St Stephens Green, The Book of Kells at the University Library and walk down O'Donnel street. You can do all that in a half day. If you can fit it in, have dinner at Gallager's Boxty House in the Temple Bar district.

Driving times are very hard to figure and you really can not go far in a day if you want to enjoy yourself and see anything. There did not seem to be much near Cork. We concentrated on the West coast from Gallway down to the Dingle penninsula. I would have liked to get to Belfast and the Giants Causeway, but we just did not have time. Consider the Rock of Cashel. It is an impressive ruin.
