    Visiting UK- advice needed for scenic places

    It was quite packed in Dorset too, I like the coast but seem like it is a known tourist spot. Imagine i approached about 10 surrounding B&B and all were sold out,! Ended up we have to spend 100 pound in a town hotel, Lion hotel I think. Ya next time I would like to go up north to lake district...

    Hey Ozei, please do not feel bad. Everyone has different preference, we should have read up more before deciding to go for the play. Partially also that my wife was not feeling well which has disrupted our mood for the play. I must thank you and all in this thread who has guided me through...

    Haha hopefully not some British humor that we do not understand. If it's like Mr Bean, probably we will have tummy ache after the whole show.

    Visiting UK- advice needed for scenic places

    Hey thanks Ozei for another great recommendation. My wife will probably prefer this than Les Miserable or Phantom of the Opera which are more 'heavy'. Probably i will bring her for 39 steps while i will catch Les Miserable myself when she is off for work. Oh ya i am back from my 3 days trip...

    Best super wide lens??

    I have just switched from nikon16-35mm to 14-24mm. No regret for the switch except that I have to spend more after getting it. I have to give up all my 77mm filters and to be replaced with cokin pro-x series filters (I have problem getting from my country though). I have DIY filter holder but...

    I just check and cheapest car rental is about 45 pound per day. Probably i will rent for 4 days if they allow me to park back at their premises near Bridge Tower at night as the apartment do not provide free parking. I can travel to Cotswolds on Monday and return to London on time to pick up my...

I want to get some Cokin Pro-X series filter which is not available in my country and generally it's cheaper to get in UK. I heard Cokin has been aquired...

    Visiting UK- advice needed for scenic places

    Thanks Byker28i, that would definately be useful for my planning. For cotswolds, most likely i will be taking public transport to save cost (I will be alone as my wife will be working). I will go Bourton as what Byker28i suggested, i have found a transport guide here...
