How long are you going to be in the UK for? I would really suggest that after you have done everything you need to in London, get out of there and find a load of other places that are less expensive. Think about York and Edinburgh and Cardiff. The 6 Nations Rugby is taking place at the moment and you should really make an effort to see a match, even if you don't like rugby too much, seeing a mass of Welsh people singing in the old language is a rare experience worth having. Same goes for the Scots and the Irish. If you want to feel raw passion then go when a celtic side is playing England. When it comes to Rugby (and life in General) the Celts hate the English, true pride is displayed in the 6 nations! --- Would you risk it, for a biscuit?

Finally I found a good option near Euston train station by 11£ per night. That's much better than the 24£ that I paid for the first night!!! Yeah! Rebekah, you're right. Next time I will go to see all Great Britain including specially the north ... I hope you will show me Cardiff ;) and probably I will go to a Rugby match!! But now I only had 5 days to spend in London city ... tomorrow is my last day and then back home to work.... brrrrr! Thanks for your advice.

Looks like you left just before the snow's hit us again! Next time you're heading this way i would be glad to show you around Cardiff and give you a few pointers. I've lived in a lot of places around the UK and would be happy to help you. --- Would you risk it, for a biscuit? Reply    Reply with quote    Contact kathmandukitten
