the woodies is THE pub you have to go to meet some people. The nightclub is the Venue and it is a very english atmosphere. For a cosy ambiance, go to the mangos.

The exchange rate between Pund Sterling and Deutsche Mark was pretty bad during the time I spent in the UK. Overall the British price standard is mor or less the same as in Germany, only that sth that costs 1 DM cost 1 Pound in the UK, which makes about 3DM because of the exchange rate. Apart from that the South of England is especially expensive because of its vicinity to London and continental Europe.
