England Recommendations

[Jakey]

I am going to be spending my Thanksgiving break in England; arriving in London at 9:45AM on 11/19 and flying home at 12:10PM on 11/24. My schedule is pretty, full but I think I am going to have most of the 19th free in London as well as the late afternoon/early evening on the 23rd. Does anyone have any recommendations on things I should try to see?

There's plenty to see but the most fun I had was sitting down at a pub with the locals and having a pint or two.

I have a friend who has spent a LOT of time in England and around London. I'll try to get ahold of him and see what he recommends.

Just go to a bunch of pubs. If you want the real UK experience, just go drink beer and start talking to people. I used to live there (scotland, actually) and that's about all they do!

I agree with the pubs if you do not do anything else go to the pubs.

Be a MAN-WHORE. Leave them something to talk about when your gone.

I agree with the pubs thing, if you're into clubbing there's a shitload of good clubs there. The london eye is awesome too if you're into that sort of stuff and the Tower of London is a pretty cool experience.

I was gonna go there again a week ago.... but I had to deal with other shit instead. Round trip tickets are off the hook at $575 round trip after taxes.

Be sure to try some of the cider's over there. They are kick ass! They will also kick your ass :D Also, learn how to signal for 2. Putting your hand the american way and holding up 2 fingers is like flicking them off. I found that most of the English don't like americans, but Scottland was great. I had the best time in Edinburough. It would be a bit of a hike from London.
