After flying with British Airways twice, and they managed to lose my bags 3 times, I found that I will never use their services again.
They might be ok if you're just flying one stretch with them. But when changing flights in London, whether it's to another BA flight or like I did the second tim…

Edinburgh is a lovely city. Most visitors will, of course, concentrate on the history and the buildings, and of course, the drinking. This tip is for the next morning, when you wake up and realise that you cannot face either another castle or another beer. Possibly ever.
One of the things th…

Ok,
So I am updating this review because although it was very popular, and the majority of people enjoyed it and found it amusing, there were some people who took offence to it. Actually, disappointingly, I was abused and insulted for this review. More or less it was only Britons who took except…

Birmingham airport is quiet easy to find your way in. For me one of the most striking things was the entry procedures due to that England is not a member of Schengen Agreement. The term Schengen Agreement is used for two agreements concluded among European states in 1985 and 1990 which deal with the…

I've actually done some research into this for a book and here's what I concluded in terms of how much money you need to come to London to live (even if you're going to start work as soon as you arrive)...
Accommodation is your first great expense. Expect to pay on average between £500-600 a mon…

If your in London the chances are you will have to use the Underground or the tube, The facts of it are, it is hot, stuffy and it's cheaper to buy a car than travel on it!!!
I suggest buying an Oyster card for £2.00 and then using it for single journeys, single journeys are £4.00 rising to £6.…

Not sure that Milton Keynes is a tourist destination , its more like a planned overflow town with the roads laid out in a grid pattern similar to New York (horizontal and vertical).Its nearly all modern but there are two large indoor shopping areas close together , with every bank and fast food …

During my comparative governments class and the recent power shifts in Ireland, I found it absolutely impossible to try and sort out who was part of what territory. I found this on Wikipedia and thought it might be helpful to you and to me =) Who knew "Britain", "England" and the "UK" weren't interc…

One of the many cool things we enjoyed in Edinburgh was scaling the Scott Memorial. The structure is an amazing black gothic spire roughly 200-feet tall. The incredible thing is that it was constructed in the 1840’s as a memorial to Sir Walter Scott. Perhaps not as rem…

I visited the highlands of Scotland for the first time this year. Wow! The magnificent scenery, wonderful friendly people and the fantastic range of things to do, what more can you say! Why has no one told me about this amazing part of the united kingdom? This is indeed a very well kept secret. We …

Presumably you don't want to hire a car, which would be the quickest way!As far as I know, there is no direct public transport between Gatwick and Cheltenham, and in particular no scheduled air service. If you want to travel by train, then if you are very lucky with the timetable you will only have …
