It is a little confusing over there with the different names of things. For example, the Subway is called the Tube, yet they had signs leading to a subway, but it was a pedestrian tunnel under the streets. Once I figured THAT out it sure made getting across those large intersections easier! Fries are Chips, but Chips are Crisps! Blimey!
Everyone kept saying Cheers! and I just Fancied a shag with a good lookin Bloke. And it sure sounds odd to here someone to ask for a "fag" meaning cigarrette! And I didn't see "Bangers and Mash" on a single menu!
When I arrived at Customs the man on duty asked why I was coming to London. I told him I was on "Holiday" of course. He cracked a smile and stamped my Pasport. He could tell by my accent I was from the States I guess!
I do highly recommend the Dorchester Hotel www.DorchesterHotel.com if you don't faint at the $675 (US dollars) a night for the smallest room. And that is before the 17.5% tax! Thankgoodness I was travelling as a guest of a friend. The Deluxe Double we shared was $1075 a night after taxes! I will say that London is a Very expensive city to visit. And the poor US dollar vs. Pound exchange rate is not in our favour.
Kelda:
Bloody hell! The Dorchester!!
Thats where all the stars stay!
You were hoping a certain JG would be there weren't ya!?
Yeah - London is an expensive city..esp against your $..
I obvioulsy loved it when I came to NY and could get everything for basically half the price of home.
