Well, I am going to England for a week in march, I am planning on taking about 2,000.00usd with me, half in cash the other half in my account and use my debit card. Is that enough? I have a free place to stay all week, the majority of my spending will be food, pubs, and the train to travel!
The train is quite expensive, depends when u book, where you going etc. For example a return to peterborough at easter for me is £100 and thats the cheapest ticket
2k would be plenty i reckon if you know which days you're travelling, use http://www.thetrainline.com/ they normally have the cheapest tickets when you book in advance, if not just don't travel before 9:30am or you'll get hit with peak time fares.
you should be able to do trains fairly cheap with singles i reckon. between london and pboro £30 ish, you wont have to change trains either. Is shorn meeting u at the airport?
ah cool ok. so you get heathrow express to kings cross, then kings cross to pboro i expect. Nice and easy. Btw in england you are required to wear more than orange boardshorts, a mahogany tan and sunglasses
hahaha I have lots and lots of warm clothes for the trip. Sunglasses and shorts will be staying at home :? But my liver is ready for the trip...... 25 days and I am on the plane!!
:lol: yea the trains are pretty expensive but deffinatly best way to get about. you will see some of the weirdest people in england rideing trains too haha but im sure thats same in US
Im looking forward to it actually. We are stopping off to get some beer before heading to PB, so I will hopefully be pissed by the time I get to shaunys hahahaha then straight to the pub after dropping off my luggage. Ahhhhhhhhhh should be a drunk time!!
