Thank you, I tried to post this up there to Jeff
Yeah flight would be the same
but three weeks worth of hotel stays all over the country including sight seeing tours, trains, cabs, food, etc I'd have to save for years to be able to afford that

Yeah totally, if you stay in London you can get a cheap hotel, or if you're really skint
you could stay in a hostel for virtually no money. And the Dollar is loads stronger against the pound at the moment.

not to sound rude
but hostels just sound like the place you go to get robbed and/or murdered

Only in Central Europe

either way I'd like my own hotel room
how much money do you think I'd need?
like $500 spending cash?

That'll not get you far in London.

Well, let's see.
A Tayyabs is going to set you back about £20 plus a fiver for 6 cans of polish lager. Then You'll want three one day travel cards for zones 1-4, so that'll be another £20. And you'll want at least £50 for boozing it up, and you need to have a traditional Sunday Roast, which will be about a tenner, then you'll need two or three full english breakfasts, which will be about a fiver each.

Isn't Tayyabs what they call cigarettes in Tennessee?
"Momma, I'm jist goin' out ter git twenny tayyabs."
"You come beck here raght naow Billuh Bob! I'll not hayave you smokin' yer filthy tayyabs in mah haouse, it's a siyyin against our Lord Jesus!"

Not in the Uk.
It's all students and hippies. Sure you could get robbed but not murdered.

I don't want to get robbed either, BGB.
I'm such a worrier, it's horrible, I'm already worrying about getting robbed and/or murdered and I don't even have money saved let alone a passport

Naw, I've stayed in hostels all over the UK and europe
and never, ever had a problem. Never felt uncomfortable, or unsafe. And they are tremendous value for money - after all, when you visit another country, you're hardly going to spend any time there apart from to sleep. So as long as it has a decent bed and a decent shower, who gives a shit - why pay more than you have to?

You can get murdered or robbed just the same in the USA you know.
Stop fretting. Poppett seemed to do Ok while travelling and as far as I know she didn't get murdered or robbed once.
