I got a last minute request to go out to our office in Manchester next week... maybe I should give our little buddy Mancboy (http://www.gotapex.com/forums/showthread.php?t=79837) a holler & see if he's all healed up?

Bring cash and lots of it. The UK is very expensive and with the dollar where it is you'll be surprised by what things cost.

Fun place to go trippin' around. I like England quite a bit.

Will you make it down to London during your trip? I love London, especially during Christmastime.

Have a great time!

Only on the flight connection... I'm going on British Air, and I connect through London from Detroit. The connecting flights are only a few hours apart, so I'll have a chance to get a really good look at the airport, but that's about it!

I did notice on my last trip that costs ARE quite a bit higher, so thank goodness for the expense account!
