Participant[quote=svelte]As you would expect,we’ve found prices drop a huge amount as you move away from London. Try a city a couple hours from London if you want to stretch your money.[/quote]
When I went back in April we flew into Manchester and then did a counter clockwise loop out through York, up the coast into Edinburgh then back down to Manchester.
We found that it wasn’t quite as expensive as we’d been led to believe. Many places you could get a pint for a pound or two. The most we paid was about 3 pounds which would be equivalent to the $5-6 we paid over here. We found most meals and other charges were similarly priced.

Sure, for the Olympics. They’re gonna be in LONDON!
You can travel cheaply in the UK or you can go to London. You can’t do both.
